4lbs for me and 1lb10oz for you.

Hmmm? I had my regular OB appointment today. I was shocked and a little dissappointed to see that I had gained 4lbs this month. I know I should chill out about the weight gain (I'm up 5lbs so far). You would think a fat girl like me could care less about another 1 or 2 pounds, hell if I really cared, wouldn't I be thin.
Anyway, I had an u/s and he was beautiful AND measuring right on target at 1lb 10oz!!!! This is very good especially since last night Ethan made the comment of "are you sure it's not twins? You're really big!!" (ASSHOLE, I actually chuckled. He says things with pure innocence). So "Daniel" waved at me and took a big gulp of amniotic fluid. He then showed me his penis again and turned and looked at me. He wouldn't hold still. The tech wondered if he is always this active, a big YES on that one.
Then my appointment continued on and I saw one of the NP's (not the one I'm really fond of). I told her about the contractions so she did an internal and I'm nice and closed. However, now she is having me come in every 2 weeks as opposed to the every 4. So that's it for this appoinment. Daniel's heartrate was 154bpm and he was incredibly active and has been hanging out on my bladder all day. I can't wait to meet him (in about 13 weeks)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barb, I am so glad the contractions were nothing & that you only have 13 more weeks to go!! That is awesome! That must have been great to see Daniel on the u/s screen again & get another confirmation that his name should be Daniel & not Danielle!! Take care & best wishes, Cara
