Doctor's Appointment Yesterday

I visited the doctor again yesterday (just the regular doctor) for a check up. I actually saw the same doctor that helped my sister deliver my nephew 6 years ago! It was a pretty uneventful appointment other than the fact he had to leave in the middle to go deliver a baby at the hospital accross the street! That was funny! He asked me how my appointments at the specialist went and was happy that they do not need to see me anymore there. He answered some questions I had, and gave me a quick ultrasound just to measure the baby. The baby was VERY active that morning, squirming and wiggling all over the place! Once the baby held still long enough to be measured he said, the baby was measuring right on schedule for my February 28th due date. We listened to the heart beat (nice and strong 167 bpm)

I will go back in 4 weeks. By then I will be 17 weeks and 3 days. They plan to do a routine ultrasound to take a look at the baby's spine and bones to make sure everything is developing as it should AND........ Try to take a look at the gender!!!!!! He said by then the sex organs should be formed enough to tell what it is, but they will only tell me if they are sure they know what it is. So maybe in 4 weeks I will be able to tell you all if we will be having a little BOY or GIRL. Lets hope our little wiggle worm holds still long enough to get a look!
