Wow. Where to begin?

I was obviously a ball of nerves this morning so time seemed to creep by. We had our monthly doctor’s appointment at nine. Everything went well. The doctor even told me the whole sleeping on your left side thing was basically false (yay for me!). He measured the heartbeat at 136bpm.

Now for the fun part. We had our ultrasound appointment at 11. It was amazing to see how much our little one had grown since 8 weeks. He weighed in at exactly 8 ounces which is great. Unfortunately, the technician was a little too stoic for our tastes and made everything (even the gender determination) just a bit too anticlimactic. We were still ecstatic when we heard it was a boy; Andy especially. After the ultrasound, the doctor came in and said everything looked perfect (woohoo!).

My apologies for the lack of comprehensiveness to this post, but that’s always a good thing when it comes to doctors appointments and such. Everything was uneventful as it should be. We have a healthy baby boy who is right on track.
