I was at the doctor’s today. Everything looks fine. Baby’s heartbeat sounds good, right on target! And I’ve gained ½ a pound in the last two weeks. It was a quick appointment, so there isn’t much to report. In two weeks, I go in again for what they call the “anatomy” ultrasound where they take a good look at Baby, measuring Baby’s femur bone for growth and other such milestones. This is the appointment where many couples find out the gender of their baby. Brian and I are not sure if we want to find out; we may want to keep that as a surprise. However, he and I are both curious to know if Baby is a little person. That seems to be of more pressing concern to us. We might know at the next appointment and we might not. The doctors just aren’t sure. It may be something they won’t discover until they’ve monitored Baby’s growth over time. Anyway, something to look forward to!
