Today we went in for our routine monthly appointment. Since our doctor was booked full, we met with a midwife\/nurse practitioner instead. All we had scheduled was a check of the baby’s heartbeat, which was normal at 150 BPM. But, our midwife was really nice, and asked if we wanted to see the baby really quickly. I think she enjoyed doing ultrasounds, because we had a fun time of it. The first shot we got was a nice side profile:<\/p>\n

Our second ultrasound on December 28th, 2010.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The baby was sleeping, and his arm was resting behind his head, much as his mother rests! The midwife prodded Olivia’s stomach with the ultrasound head, and the baby woke up! He was opening and closing his mouth, and flailing his legs a bit. Apparently all the amniotic fluid gave him the hiccups, and we could see him go through the motions just like a big person. After being woken up, he turned his body toward the ultrasound, tucked up his knees in front of his body, and we couldn’t see much more. It was great to see our baby when he looks more human and less alien, and the 20 week ultrasound we’ll be getting in a month will look even better.<\/p>\n

Aside from that, Olivia has been doing better, although she has the occasional headache, back aches, and has a tough time sleeping. We bought our first baby clothes this past week during some after-Christmas shopping, and we are starting to get into the mindset of buying stuff for baby.<\/p>\n
