It's a GIRL!!!

Today was the big day. We had an appt to see Dr. Avery at 2pm. Paul and I saw the sonogramist before Dr. Avery. She took lots of sonogram pictures. She showed us the heart, the bladder, the little legs and more wonderful body parts. With that she showed us three little white lines, which means that we are having a GIRL!!

One of the pictures shows baby girl with her mouth open. We saw her little legs kicking around a bit. The heat beat was 138.

13 week appt

On Friday, June 30th I went for my 13 week appt. I saw Dr. Stevenson. At this point point, I am making my rounds between all the doctors in the practice, I believe there are 6. This way, I have met all the doctors since I will have no idea which one will be on call when I go into labor.

Paul and I listened as the nurse placed the machine on my belly to hear the heart beat. The heart beat was 158. Even though I thought it might be a stupid question, I asked if that was a normal heart beat for a baby at 13 weeks. The answer was yes. I am sure that they hear all kinds of crazy questions, especially with first time moms.

The doctor said that everything looks great. To date, I have gained 9 pounds. We scheduled our next appt for Friday, July 25th with Dr. Avery. That is the BIG day, we can find out the sex of the baby. YEAH!!! Anyone have any ideas of what we will be having???? A Boy or a Girl.
