Today I had my doctor appointment to check on baby and make sure all is okay. Basically just a blood pressure, weight, and heart rate on both of us. Blood pressure is fine, weight is up by 15 pounds (gasp!) and both heart rates are good. Doctor told me "Baby's heart rate is at 155. It is obviously a boy (pause) or a girl!" He thinks he is so funny. I think he and Mark will be exchanging jokes in the corner while I am in labor... Also got to hear baby kick, quite a few times. I have been able to feel baby kick for about the last two weeks, so it was fun to hear it, too.
Isa is quite fascinated with mama's 'ummy' these days. It seems to be growing at an exponential rate lately...
Isa often just walks up to my belly and pats it, or leans in and gives it a quick kiss. She likes to touch mama's belly and then rub her own, and she has even told dad to rub HER belly on more than one occasion.
Once in a while she will point to mama's tummy and say "baby" and other times she will point at herself and say "baby." I have also caught her putting her baby doll under her shirt and walking around the house(!), so I think she gets the concept to some degree, although I do think she is in for quite the shocker come May.
My next appointment is January 2, at which time we will more than likely find out the gender. Boy or girl? What's your guess (and be sure to leave your name, anonymous comments will be deleted!)?
Dads guess is that its a boy. Just a feeling, but dad has been wrong b4.
ReplyDeleteObviously another girl. Momma looks great, Contratulations to your entire family. But sisters rock!
ReplyDeletegotta be a boy
ReplyDeleteI think it is a girl
ReplyDeleteAfter lifting up mama's shirt to point out where baby was, Isa said "baby sis" followed by our baby girl name...Hmmm, I think Isa is thinking it's a girl.
ReplyDeleteMama thinks its a girl too- she thinks big sis is on to something...
