Today D and I - and Baby Taylor of course - had a doctor's appointment. Just one of those run of the mill check-ins, but honestly I'm glowing from it! Isn't that weird? But it all went so well!!! She reviewed the ultrasound results with us, which she confirmed were great, and let us know that in fact our baby is not ahead of schedule but looks to be perfectly on time - 55th percentile weight wise to be exact.
Also, I gained 5 pounds!!! So now I've gained 5 pounds total (or 10 if you include the 5 I lost when I first got pregnant). My bp was 106/59 and heart rate was 58 - so everything looked healthy and good to go so our doc said she doesn't need to see us for another 6 weeks.
On top of it, we got to hear Baby Taylor's heartbeat again...it's such a reassuring and joyous sound at a healthy 159bpm. And as always, our doc commented on how active she is...when I start feeling this little one I don't think I'll sto
That said, I have felt her, but not regularly and still pretty lightly, but I've felt her nonetheless. You still can't feel her from the outside, but hopefully that will come soon so D can feel her pounding on my insides :) I can't wait for the first time her feels her reach out to his hand while it's resting on my stomach.
Anywho, so there's the update! Things are looking good in this world - healthy, happy baby in my belly, still on par with a July 26 due date, and my weight is on the rise - woohoo!!!
