Swish, Swish, Swish

We met with our actual doctor for the first time yesterday and got to hear the baby's heartbeat (154 beats per minute). All is well and everything is measuring where it should be.

Also at this appointment, we made the appointment for our 20 week ultrasound. We'll find out the sex of the baby on October 27th!

Today marks the beginning of the second trimester so the queasiness should be subsiding pretty soon. It is hard to believe that we are one third of the way done with this pregnancy. We better get going on that baby room...

This week the baby is about the size of a clenched fist. S/he is practicing wiggling its toes and possibly sucking its thumb. Speaking of fingers, the baby has fingerprints.
