Baby Update
Went to the doctor today and heard Baby Boom's heartbeat. I forgot to ask how many beats per minute, but last few times it's been between 150 and 160. Baby is cooking well and seems kosher so far. A blessing for sure. I asked about the random sharp pains down there on the sides of my stomach and figured it was the baby growing and all those ligaments and muscles moving and adjusting, the good doc confirmed my thoughts, but it's good to ask. We don't have a bump yet but feeling "flutters" and "bubbles" in there and, also, my lower belly is getting hard so maybe the bump will pop soon. Next doc appointment is in four weeks and ultrasound in three weeks. Doesn't make sense to me either, but I'm not complaining. I'll get to see an even better picture of Boom :) and look even more like a baby! Yep yep! Also, I am pretty sure if we have a girl, I finally have a name. Josh is iffy, but I think my assurance that this is the name I'm almost positive I want he is coming around. I mean come on! I wasn't allowed to have a say if it's a boy! I get the girl name. It's only fair ;)
