Latest Dr.'s Appointment

Today's appointment wasn't too terribly exciting. But we did get to hear the heartbeat! :) The doctor says it sounds really good. I think she said it was like 158 beats/minute. I THINK that's what I remember...but I'm not very good with the memory! :) But I do know for sure she said it sounded really good. She actually said that several times.

I also had a test done today called a Quad Test. It was an optional test and Ryan let me decide if I wanted it. It tests for Down's Syndrome and a few other things. I decided I wanted it because if there's something that's going on, I'd like to know about it ahead of time to give myself time to wrap my brain around whatever it may be.

Only a month until we find out the baby's gender is revealed!!

I am glad everything went well for you! I know how exciting it is to hear the baby's heartbeat everytime you go to the doc! Hope you are feeling great too....getting plenty of rest and all.

About Me

My photo
I've been a wife for over seven years, a mommy of one for 2 and a half years, and a mommy of two as of 12/28/10! :) I married Ryan on July 26, 2003. We always said we wanted to have kids sometime around our fifth anniversary. The closer that time came, the more we started thinking we still needed another year. However, God held us to our original plan because Karys Elizabeth was born July 30, 2008...4 days after our 5th anniversary. :) I quit my job teaching kindergarten to take on the much more rewarding "career" of stay-at-home mom. There are some days that are hard, but I love it just the same. God surprised us again in May 2010 when we found out we were having baby #2. I went through the entire pregnancy expecting him to go past his January 9, 2011 due date since his sister was overdue. However, Zane Elliott surprised us by making his debut on December 28, 2010, and we wouldn't have it any other way! Now that we have "one of each" we could be "done" with our family, but hopefully that won't be the case. :)
