I had my 2nd OB appointment today, and had to take Lando with me. I thought that would be fun, because he would get to hear the baby's heart beat...we've been talking all about the new baby. He thinks there is a baby in his tummy too! Pretty hilarious. The other important part of this story is that I had visited the doctor's office on Wed, because I had a terrible stomach flu and had to get fluids. They weighed me at that appointment and I weighed...134. I go to this appointment...2 days later...step on the scale confidently and it says...140!!! I freaked out!! I was thinking there is no way I gained 6 pounds in 2 days! Kind of started to panic. The nurse walked me back to the room and she says...Diane will be in to see you in a second. I said, "Who's Diane?" She said, "She's a nurse. Dr. Hansen is sick...is that ok?" I work in the medical field and couldn't believe that I was being told in the room I wouldn't be seeing the doctor. I was like that's fine...I didn't want to have to come back. She came in and was trying to find the baby's heart beat up near my belly button. I was thinking...I'm 14 weeks pregnant and my uterus is not up there yet...your not going to find it there. She finally found it when she moved the doppler after about 5 minutes and the heart rate was in the 160's. Dad and I bet today...he thinks it's a girl and I'm sticking with boy?? We will see!
To conclude, this very long story. I went to my sister Katie's house and she made me get on her scale. All was good...I was only 135. I don't think I want to go back to my OB's office and face that scale again! :) Landon loved hearing the baby and kept saying bye-bye baby when he couldn't hear it anymore! Too cute!
We are very excited and getting nervous about this new addition to our family! It's amazing the blessings God gives us even though we don't deserve them at all!
