The Grays

Below is our 20 week photo. There was a comment about a lack of Bill photos, so I posed with Kristy this time around.

Kristy and Bill at 20 Weeks

Bill and I had our monthly doctor visit on Friday.  We could not be happier with Dr. Wolanski – too bad he probably won’t be the one delivering our baby!

During the visit we heard the baby’s heartbeat for the first time:  a healthy 135 bpm!  We tried to hear it with the doppler several weeks ago but it was too early, and the volume was not on during the last ultrasound we had.  What an amazing sound…

Dr. Wolanski assured me (for the fourth time) that in my case there is no reason to worry about weight gain.  He told me to expect a total weight gain between 16 and 22 pounds due to my size and build, and not to worry about tracking my weight (which I have been doing every morning) as long as I am eating the right foods.  He also said that I might not ‘show’ for awhile because of my long torso.  This is slightly frustrating for me because I’m ready to show the world that, yes indeed, I’M PREGNANT!!!  🙂

Coming Up:

• Movement:  I have indeed felt the baby move but this sensation will get stronger and more obvious every day.  In a few weeks Bill should be able to feel the baby!
• 22 week ultrasound scheduled for March 5th (Boy or Girl?)
