On Monday, April 13th I had my 17 week OB appointment. I met with one of the doctors at Atrium and she did updated blood work and several other tests.
After my usual exam, I finally got to hear the baby's heart beat!!!!!
The doctor had quite a challenge chasing the baby around though... She found the heart beat quickly, and we listened for a few seconds. But then the baby moved. She found the heart beat again and we listened and then he/she moved again. The baby was definitely dancing around inside!! She followed it around for a few minutes.
When I feel the baby start to move- I am going to be in BIG trouble... he/she is VERY active!!!!!
On another note- the floors are finally completed and we will have our new kitchen counter tops installed tomorrow. So- I will have some new pictures of the updates posted very soon. It looks so great- like a whole different house.
We have our next OB appointment on Monday, May 11th (the day after Mother's Day) when we will FINALLY found out the sex of the baby!!!! James will be at the appointment with me and we're both very excited to find out what is growing inside of me and start planning the nursery.
