Erin' doctor appointment went well yesterday afternoon. We heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time. The doctor said she & the baby were both doing well, everything looked good & sounded good. We won't find out what gender our baby is until early May. Erin & the grandmothers can't wait because they all want to go & buy stuff & they have had to wait until we know whether it's a girl or a boy.
Erin was also excited yesterday about the fact she has only gained 3 pounds as she begins the 2nd Trimester. She didn't gain any more than she was supposed to. (I know it's dangerous speaking publically about your wife's weight-gain, but she was thrilled w/ 3 pounds b/c she said she feels like she has gained a whole lot more). I encouraged her & told her just to wait because the pounds will start piling on before it's all over with!
According to Erin's research & reading our baby has developed fingerprints, footprints, & the ability to suck it's thumb if it so chooses. The size is somewhere in the range of a small lemon. Supposedly the body is starting to catch up with the head, which is good. We couldn't be more happy to share this experience of having a child together. God is a God of miracles & they happen everyday, let's just hope we can see them & enjoy them!
