16 Week Doctor Appointment

Jason, Lori, and I all went to the my doctor's appointment today. It turns out that I have already gained a whopping 6 pounds since the last time I was there. We listened to the heart beat again today with the hand held doppler. This time it was 155 bpm. Dr. Appel said it would slow down each time we come in. Last time it was 170bpm. We heard the baby kicking again today. She said within the next couple of weeks I should be able to start feeling little flutters when the baby moves. My next appointment is June 24th. At that one, I will have a sonogram first and then see the doctor. She said they will determine the gender and get some measurements and information from the ultrasound. I will be able to find out whether it's a boy or a girl right before the family reunion in Missouri. I finished up at the doctor's office with some blood work and that was it. I have 4 more weeks of waiting!

Jason has nearly finished the spare bedroom. All he is lacking are the two doors. I will post some pictures soon. I found some bedding that I like for the baby's room so maybe Jason can get started in there painting, etc. when he's ready to take on another project. Here's a picture of the bedding. They have it at JCPenny's but I found another website that has a lot more accessories. I added it to the sidebar of my blog if anyone wants to see a bigger picture.
