4 month appt.

Here is a picture of Robert and I from this weekend. We went to Sedona with some friends and had a great time. I got a perm about a week ago and am loving it.

We had our 4 month appointment on Friday, October 20th. Dr. Busch said everything was going great! Our test results for Down's Syndrome came back good, so its very unlikely that our baby will have that syndrome. I also had blood drawn for an AFP test, which helps the Doctor's see if the spinal column has closed correctly. In short it checks if your baby has Spina Bifida. We get those results back next appointment unless something is wrong. I also have only gained 2 lbs, which is good. I have a few new found craving like McDonald's chicken nuggets, dill pickle juice and Swedish fish candies.

Our next appointment is November 20th.

Ultrasound

Here is our little bean!! She or he is sucking their thumb. The head is on the right side of the picture.

I have been feeling pretty well. Queasy from time to time, headaches, and very tired. My doctor said all of these are really normal.

I'm about 14 weeks along and happy to report that the 2nd trimester is way better than the first :)

I go to the doctor next Friday for my monthly check-up, so I'll update again after that.
