Next on the list... Katy and I were actually going to get to hear the heartbeat for the very first time... or so we thought. After two minutes of running the Mini-Doppler over the jelly-belly... no sound. NO SOUND? Not to worry, the doctor assured us everything was OK.
Typically there wouldn't be another ultra-sound at this stage in the pregnancy. We were able to get another sneak peak as they wanted to get an actual visual of a healthy heartbeat. Indeed it was healthy at 169 beats per minute. There is a wives tale going around that fast heart rates = baby girl. Who knows? All we knew after checking out our newborn is that it wasn't afraid to strike a pose. Hiccups, hands in the air, wiggling and bouncing...It's a busy body.
Katy has neither gained nor lost any weight and is as healthy as a horse. Her taste buds are branching out to more sophisticated meals including, Campbell's Soup, Pizza (light sauce), and even Salmon!!! Her down time consists of good flicks on HBO, college football, and an occasional Hell's Kitchen (when I'm home). She's been a trooper so far. Katy is going to hold off on joining in P90X at least until the second trimester.
Love you all! More photos are soon to come!!! Come visit us in Boise. Our doors are open!
