Ok this time around Peter and I get there early and we are the first ones there. They take us back and we sit for a good 25 minutes. When she comes in Doc. Walsh smiles and says all the test came back good and we should be able to hear the baby. That was great news she then had me sit on the chair and lay back. So once she puts the heartbeat ultrasound thing on me she moves it around a bit and says ok that is you. So she moves it some more and says "that's you" "that's you" and she does this for a while and I started to get a little worried. I was thinking is my baby dead did it die and I say out loud "baby are you hiding in there?" hoping that it was. An sure enough she moves it all the way to my right side and there it is. It sounded soft but steady to me and she looks at me and says "that is baby" It was such a relief to hear that little heart beating. The doctor said it was 150 and sounding good and then that was it. I asked a few questions and we were on our way.
I can feel the baby move now it is a little painful I think because I must be a little sore from my body stretching on the inside. The first time I really felt the baby move was at wok the day I had my first appointment. I was sitting there at my desk and I feel three figures or toes lightly brush me and then a second or two later I feel it again. I sit there am just thinking what was that was that the baby? It must have been I turn around and tell one of the ladies and she thought so too. When it happened I felt very peaceful bushed me and I love thinking about it it was just so sweet.
Unlike the first time today was way different. Today at work there was a moment where I learned something about the baby. Right before I had my learning experience I was sitting at my desk with my belly feeling hot and uncomfortable so I need to use the restroom like a lot of pregnant women do. So I wash my hands and to cool my belly down I dry my hands and then put my cold hand on my belly. Then the second I put my hand on my belly the baby freaks out and starts to move like crazy. It was probably was thinking what it that I don't like that to cold. I think I might have startled my baby. Well what I have learned is that my baby is definitely like Peter and is always warm and that it is a Texan that does not like the cold lol. I love learning new things about our baby!
