Back from my OB appointment
coasterqueen wrote: and....we got to hear our baby's heartbeat!!!! DH and I both almost cried because this whole spotting thing has us waiting anxiously for each appointment for proof our baby is still there.
Our doc said..."awesome heartbeat...this one is going to be STRONG"....Dh looked at her and said "we already have a "strong" child...we were hoping for a passive one". She didn't tell me how many bpm's but that heart was tickin' away.
Our next appointment is November 4th which is when we'll get to find out if this baby is a girl or a boy I'll be 17 weeks so I'm HOPING the baby cooperates with us. We'd LOVE to tell all of our family at thanksgiving what the sex is. If not then we'll get another try at our 21 week one but that won't be til December.
She said no actual bedrest but my restrictions still stand at least until the next appointment.
kimberley replied: great news! that must have been music to your ears! i hope that eased your mind a bit. can't wait for the next update! i still say it's a boy!
3_call_me_mama replied: YAY! Glad everything went well... we are hoping Kathleen will be a passive one too since Cameron is definately NOT! Good luck to you!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Phew! What a welcome relief! I'm so glad you got to hear the heartbeat. That is too funny what Ryan said about wanting a passive baby. Isn't it so true, though!
Glad things are looking up for you.

Take care!

MomToMany replied: Congratulations Karen! What a relief! Now sit back and relax. and take it easy!!
coasterqueen replied: Thanks everyone. I'll have to start a poll closer to 17 weeks to see what you all guess the sex will be.
Now if 17 weeks would just hurry up and get here.
Littlejojames replied: Glad it went well
Will be sending loads of open legs vibes for the 17th for you
