Yesterday's Appointment

I had another checkup. My doc said that everything looked good and everything was growing correctly. We also tried to hear the baby's heartbeat with a little doppler gizmo, but the baby was not cooperating. I think it's cause he (oop, there I go again calling it a he) was waiting for Daddy to hear it :-) I think it could also be because of the freezing cold waiting room they stuck me in for over half an hour, the poor thing was probably thawing out, lol! I would've been sad if I got to hear the heartbeat without Brent, so I'm glad we didn't hear it.

Next checkup is the 14th, though I found out my doc won't be in on the 14th so I had to make a different appointment to see him. I might call and see if I can consolidate the two on the 17th. We'll see.

Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!

Jennifer's Post

Hello everyone! I finally get to do a post! Hehe, I've been really busy with work and what not. But I finally managed to get my official Month 2 belly shot. Isn't it beautiful? Well if not, this is sure to make you smile:


For those who are new to this whole baby thing... on the right hand side of that big black area... is our baby! It's feet are touching the right-hand side. And there's a little black circle underneath it and that's the yolk sack... so I'm told. They told us that in this picture (which was taken on 11/5/07 by the way) the baby is as long as two nickels stacked together. Can you believe that?! It's so tiny. We were looking at a poster in the doctor's office and the difference in size between now and the one we'll take December 14th is amazing. It's actually making me kinda nervous... cause that weekend is the musical at the church... and I don't think the pants of the costume (uniform, whatever you wanna call it) are gonna fit me! But anyways, enjoy the picture of our little teeny tiny baby! By the way... everyone thinks it's going to be a boy. We all just have a feeling. I keep calling it a "he" too.

Boy or Girl

Well we found out the other day that we will be finding the gender of the baby on...........ready for this.....Valentines Day. How cool is that. We are both really excited and wish it would get here sooner but alas. The next time our baby goes in for his/her close up will be on December 14th. That will mean Jen is 12 weeks along.

The Ultrasound

Everything looks perfect. We went and got the ultrasounds, saw the blob which will be our beautiful baby and saw his/her heartbeat. It was amazing. We have pictures and are showing everyone like good proud parents should. (ex "Here, look at my blob. Isn't it the most beautiful blob you've ever seen.") The doctor said it was attached at the right spot, the right size (6 mm. the width of 2 nickles stacked together) and looking perfect. Couldn't ask for more. I will try and get the picture of our blob up for all the world to admire and comment on how cute it is. :) I'm sure my very smart wife could figure it out but until then....it is just me rambling.
