According to what I read online our baby weighs about 4.97 oz and is about 5.12 inches long! We had another appointment yesterday. The midwife was able to hear our baby's heartbeat with a Doppler now. The heartbeat was very fast, and the baby kept trying to hide behind the placenta. It is such an incredible sound to hear. I get excited every time because it is just that reminder that our baby is healthy and growing. I am still amazed that I am carrying our child. It feels so unreal, and at times I still think I am going to wake up from a dream.
I can't really deny the fact that I am. I am showing, and having to purchase maternity clothes. (I wore my first maternity dress to the wedding this past weekend.) I was encouraged to hear that I and our baby our healthy. Except for a few "big macs" now and then, I think I am doing alright at eating good for our baby.
I am still working, and Philip has been attending Paramedic school. I am so proud of him in so many ways. He is my hero! I love him beyond words! How exciting it is to think that in about four months we will be looking into the eyes of our child that the Lord has allowed us to make together. It is so incredible.
Well, I think that is all I have for now. Our next appointment is on June 26th, and we will find out if we are having a boy or girl!!!! We are so excited and can hardly stand it! :o)
