So I had my doctor’s appointment at another clinic yesterday to check the growth of the baby. First they put me on a monitor (they wrapped it around my belly) and we listened to the baby’s heartbeat for 10 minutes and they told me to press a button everytime I felt the baby move. Her heart beat around 140 bpm and she moved a lot. =D Then this lady did another sonogram, measuring the head and other body parts. There was a screen in front of me so I could see what she was doing. She didn’t say a word the whole time and then she was done within like 5 minutes, and told me I could get up. She didn’t give me any pictures. I had to wipe all the jelly off my belly with the cloth she put on protecting my pants. She didn’t even give me more napkins and she sat back down in front of the computer. So I sat there for like a minute (after wiping) and then she was like “we’re done, you can go”. This office was a little strange. But whatever.

She did tell me though that the baby weighs 5 lb 2 oz already and she is within normal limits. (YAY!) I wonder how much she will weigh when she’s born. I’ve got a little over 5 weeks left. It’s kinda scary. I’m not sure that I’m ready yet. We still have lots to buy. My co-workers told me that they’re throwing me a shower on Tuesday. They figured they couldn’t surprise me, so they told me. They’re so sweet.. and funny.. =D So I’ll post up pix of that next.
