Well, I really have nothing to post that has changed from my previous doctor's appointment. The normal nurse was not in and the fill-in nurse couldn't figure out how to use the digital scale (which I stand on and then wait a few seconds and it beeps with my weight) she did it twice and felt it wasn't correct so she sent me down the hall to one of the old scales that you manually change the weight on! Let me just say....I liked the number on the digital scale much better, it was 3 pounds lighter! But this way the doctor didn't comment on my loosing too much weight because it said 3 pounds higher....
No ultrasound today. We did listen to the heartbeat on the doppler and it was 150-160. I said, "well, you know, the old wives tale is the faster the beat the chance of a girl..."
Dr. Gramann laughed and said, "that is usually about 50% right." I laughed at that one!
He told me that the baby and my uterus still feel pretty small but he won't be changing my date again...Ummm, Dr. Gramann you really can't change the date again otherwise the dates will not make ANY sense with my body!
I was telling my friend Candice that and she said, "Well Manuel was really small so you might be lucky and just a small fully developed baby..." One can only hope, right? I mean if I had a big baby I really couldn't complain but I am not objecting to a baby on the smaller size, it just seems more comforting...
A side note my mother-in-law and I were talking and she was telling me that she hoped my baby had Victor's blonde hair...Ummm, am I color blind (like my dad) or is it just me that sees my husband with BLACK hair? I guess, my MEXICAN husband, was a toehead for the first three years of his life! I have been commenting that I am going to be confused when my baby comes out with dark skin, dark eyes and dark hair (don't be confused-those are all the qualities I am attracked too) but every single baby I am around right now has blonde hair and blue eyes. So maybe it won't be too much of a shook to have a toehead, but I still want the baby to have Victor's color of hair and his curls but my texture/thickness (his is super coarse and thick).....Well it can't help to hope even though I have no choice :) I just hope for a non-bald and non-cone headed baby like me :)!
