The Heart is Strong

Just had another check up this morning and got to hear the heart beat.  Everything is good, the heartbeat is quick and strong.  I think I know why I am tired all the time, if the baby is using all of my energy to make that heart beat so fast.  Which in the big picture I don't mind so much.  I just don't like Clark's comments on our walks of who is panting harder, me or Nixon.

On another note, I just love my Doctor.  Dr. Callison rocks.  She is easy going and easy to talk to.  When she walked in this morning with me in "The Chair" and Clark in the other chair holding my purse, she just said "Welcome to the world of Gynocology" and chuckled.  I have been really lucky to find such great doctors her in Huntsville. Mostly through referals from friends, which is great.  I think by the end of Dr. Callison's career, she will have delivered all of the children of our supper club!

I will try to remember to scan in the ultrasounds that we have from the 8 weeks and 12 weeks. 

I was mistaken, I thought we would find out the sex at the next appointment before we leave for England and Ireland, but it won't be for another 8 weeks, so May 19th.  That will be a nice late birthday present for Clark.  I am leaning towards it being a girl.  I think Clark is still holding out for a boy.

I just talked to my friend KB yesterday and she was telling me that they thought they were having a girl the whole time until delivery and found out it was indeed a boy.  So for Clark, hope springs eternal.

Hope this finds you all well.
