I went to the doctor for my monthly check-up and everything looks great! My doctor is just so nice, too. She said it was easy to find the baby and the heartbeat was 155 beats per minute (excellent) and she just kind of listened to it for a minute and just kind of closed her eyes and said, "it's such a nice sound, isn't it?" It might sound creepy, but it wasn't...haha. It really is so cool to hear the heartbeat. I think she expected me to have more questions but I really didn't have any. I have been reading 3 different mommy-to-be books, talking to some people, and doing some research online. Obviously I'm not going to rely on all of that, but to be honest, a lot of it is common sense. Like, why wouldn't I eat fruits and vegetables? It just seems like some moms-to-be need a lot more hand-holding, I need some of course, but like I said, most of this is common sense. I mean, as I was reminded the other day, my body was made to carry this little one! So, my body knows what it needs and what it needs to do.
I did ask my doctor why I wasn't really showing yet. I have a small bump but it's been the same for weeks now. She said it was because I have such strong stomach muscles. Oh. you should be happier that you have such strong stomach muscles! OH! :) basically I have abs of steel guarding this little baby. She also said it was very easy to find and told me that I am doing and EXCELLENT job. Being a mom is so wonderful :)
Next month, November 7 at 1PM to be exact, I will find out if I will be a mom or a dad! I can't wait!
^^ those are not people I know...just think it's hilarious.
