No gender news...

Sorry to get everyone's hopes up (including ours), but we apparently had a mis-communication with the Dr. at our last visit and the sono tech was not scheduled for today. She also decided to go back to the due date of the first sonogram which puts us back 2-3 weeks from where we thought we were now. I thought I would be 19 weeks tomorrow, but apparently we are 16. Which for now puts us at Feb. 11th from what we've been told. We won't be convinced until the next sonogram and measurements so we can get this all straight. This has been so confusing going back and forth and I hope she wrote something consistent in her notes for next time, but we did actually get a scheduled time with the tech for Sept. 15th @ 1:40pm. So, as we've all been told all our lives "patience is a virtue". It's a virtue I still need to work on. While today was disappointing because I was anxious and excited, I know that everything's fine and the baby's heartbeat sounded really good 157bpm! I also gained weight for the first time, 3 lbs. nurse said it's a nice and steady gain. My bp was 120/62 so also good. That's all until next time...

Between week 35 and 37 I gained 7 lbs.
If you balloon the way I did, it will no longer be a happy occasion. Haha

PS.
Andrews Women's (the new wing at All Saints downtown) and Bea Kutzler.
My aunt recommended her because she's worked with her in the delivery room and said she's really good.

I am SOOOO excited for you and Mike and I can't wait to find out what y'all are having! Sounds like all your stats are great! I'm looking forward to the next appt so hopefully y'all can find out the gender and an accurate due date!
