Today I Am 19 weeks & 3 days

Had my 19 week appointment today.

Not a whole lot to tell...heart beat was strong, 155 bpm. That's down from 160 bpm at my 15 week appointment. It's not unusual for the rate to change. Actually the heart rate usually starts out high and the further along in the pregnancy it does go down some.

The biggest news is we scheduled our level 2 Ultrasound for April 26. It's 45 min. long and we should get some great pictures! I'm very excited to actually see a baby in there this time! I asked the Doc what all they do during this ultrasound and she said they check that the heart has all the chambers it's suppose too. They check the brain, lungs, and other vital organs to make sure they are developing properly. They can also tell the sex at this time too....and NO we are still not going to find out what we are having. :)

As excited as I am to see our little one, I'm a little nervous too. This is where if anything is wrong with our baby, they will most likely find it. So any and all prayers and positive thoughts are welcome that everything goes smoothly and our little bean is healthy!

Thanks for reading!

I am excited to see the ultrasound. Any little thing to see the baby moving would be cool. Corie has been feeling the baby lately which is unfair. I can't wait until our little one is bigger so I can feel the baby. Last night I tried to hear the baby, but all I got was silence. Our little one is just too little. Oh well, I'm a patient guy!

I really can't wait for you to see our little bean too! Can't wait to see the look on your face, you'll be so amazed. :)

The Doc said by the end of the 6 month we should definitely be able to feel all the little kicks and punches....so hold on for a few more weeks honey!

I hope all is well, and the baby is healthy.

We didn't find out the sex of either our kids. Heck, that's half the fun of getting any present is the surprise, why wreck it.
