12 week check up 9/16/2009

We had our 12 week check up. I was a little disappointed because I was expecting to do another ultrasound, but we didn't. We started the appointment as usual, taking weight and blood pressure. The doctor then discussed all of the blood work that was done at the last visit. Everything looks fine. :-) Then the doctor said she was going to try and listen to the baby's heartbeat. My first experience with that jelly on my belly! haha At first all we could hear was MY heartbeat, but after a few seconds, we heard the baby's heartbeat. :) It sounded just like mine, although a lot faster! The heartrate was about 150 which is normal, so the doctor said everything is going well.
We do have another doctor's appointment this Monday with a high-risk specialist. Not because anything is wrong....my regular doctor has all of her patients visit this specialist to get a better ultrasound and take more accurate measurements. So I just can't wait until Monday!
