Today Baby T and I had a quick check-up with the certified nurse midwife. It was the first time the doppler's been used to heart the heartbeat. We've been spoiled, and have heard the heartbeat via ultrasound, but from now on, aside from the anatomy scan, the doppler will be how we hear the heartbeat at each appointment. As soon as the midwife put the wand on my belly the sound of the heart rate filled the room. It's always so wonderful to hear.
Thanks to Hurricane Irene we have been without power for nearly four days. Matt and I have both worked the last four nights, so it hasn't been too inconvenient to be without power. Tonight we decided to head up to West Hartford to spend the night with Jeff and Kat (and Baby Sonny), who never lost power. It has been so nice to spend the evening with them! We are so excited that Baby T will have a cousin born around the same time as him/her and have loved sharing this adventure with Jeff and Kat so far.
For those who have not seen me lately, there's not much to see in the way of a baby bump yet. We have been taking belly pictures periodically, and will share some of them on here soon.
It was great seeing you this weekend. I loved buying my first clothes for Baby T. You two are going to be awesome parents!
