2nd Appointment & Happy Birthday Mom!

Today was our second prenatal appointment with the Midwives. We saw Ann...she is one of five midwives that we will be getting to know throughout the pregnancy. Any one of the five could be on call or working the day/night I go into labor, so they want us to know all of them beforehand. Mom and Nana came to the appointment with Chris and I so they could see the Midwife Center.

At the appointment, Ann answered a few questions I had and then we got to listen to the heartbeat! It was a little miracle! Ann said it was in the 160s and my mom shouted, "It's a girl," because (to her knowledge) typically girls have a higher heartbeat in the womb. ("Boys are lazy," she says) All these girl predictions....we'll get to see who is right soon. I have to call Allegheny General Hospital tomorrow to schedule our ultrasound.

That's about it. I'm healthy, baby is healthy -- heartbeat sounds good and I'm growing at the right rate! Yippee!

Last, but certainly not least, Happy Birthday to my Mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
