Visit to the Doctor

Well here it is, Saturday morning and I am just now posting the latest updates on the baby! Thursday we went to the doctor for the monthly check up. Everything was good. We had the first belly measurement and being 22 weeks along, it should measure 22 and it did! So that was good. The baby heart rate was approximately 147 bpm which is normal for this age. This was hopefully, going to be my clue as to what we are going to have. Next time we go, May 22, we will be doing the orange drink diabetes/glucose check. We have no indications that say anything will be bad, since Ami just had a diabetes check at work this week and all was normal. We also wanted you all to know that the little tyke has decided that it is going to start getting more and more active. I have finally really started to feel some kicking and it is amazing!

Other than that, I have 4 days left next week of the grad school semester and the dogs are doing well. Once grad school is done, look for updates on progress of the nursery too! Make sure to study the ultrasound pictures and vote for what you think we are going to have. Have a great weekend, and remember GO WINGS!

Felt it

OK so I finally felt the little one jumping around today. It was cool and freaky at the same time. I can't wait until it gets a little stronger. For those of you who don't know, meg likes to curl up on the bed next to us at night and when Ami is on the couch. She has a tendency to "freak" out if you move near her while she is sleeping. It will be interesting to see what happens that first time when the baby kicks and Meg is there...

That's all for now. More tomorrow.

Updates and Trips

Ok,

So it has been called to my attention that I haven't been updated as much as I should be, by both our loyal readers and well, Ami! So here it is, we went to the doctor, things were great and yes we had another ultrasound and the tech could tell what the baby was, I unfortunately could not. I must have blinked at that point. So Ami has felt the baby a couple of times, but me, not so much, need to spends some more time rubbing the belly I guess! Now we have a lot more stuff to do as I start to ramp down on the semester of Grad School...and it's getting tough to finish it off. We need to finish registering for the baby and start taking the Lamaze classes and how ot care for your newborn class. Should be tons of fun for us and we are looking forward to it.

We go back to the doctor this Thursday, so we will post (I promise) sometime that night with any updates we have! For now, have a great day and look for an update soon...Also...here's the latest ultrasound pictures!
