2nd Prenatal {12 weeks 2 days}

Well I had my second prenatal today! :)

Launi and Lijie both got to come with me and we got to hear the heartbeat for the first time!! Having the boys there ..all of us together..was really cool.
Lijie was sitting on my legs the whole time (not that comfortable when your laying flat on your back..lol.) watching the Doctors every move. He was particularily interested in the green goop that they put on my belly. And he can do a PERFECT imitation of what the babies heartbeat sounds like! :)

So far all you superstitious nuts out there, who think the heartbeat has something to do with gender (and I'll admit, Im one of those people..) it was 160 bpm which spells out.....GIRL! :)

(Doctor laughed at me and said..."well not nessecarily.." And I said, "you can't argue with family folklore, and in our family, the heart beat is always right! ")

So we shall see. At my next appointment I get my ultrasound scheduled. First one is between 18-20 weeks. The second one is at around 36 weeks.

My blood pressure was perfect. And my urine dip showed that the bladder infection that Ive had for a month is finally GONE! Weeeeee! No more antibiotics.

I left the appointment feeling really excited. I was so happy that the boys could be there because...they were both smiling when they heard the heart and it was just a really neat moment. :)

Ive been feeling alot better the last couple of days and I haven't had to take anything for nausea for the last couple of days either. (Which is a good thing.)
Ive been really hungry..and dreaming ALOT about food. Its rather pathetic...

So for now all looks wonderful. The Doc said that things are going really well. :)
Keep your fingers crosed everyone!
