1st Ultrasound & 20 wk Check Up!!!!

On Tuesday Neal & I had our 20wk check up with Dr. Rudat. I couldnt wait for our appt to be here, since it was the 1st time we could say the baby & we were going to find out if it was a boy or girl! Neal was working til 12:45 so I was at home doing dishes, cleaning, getting everything ready for our party with all our family! I was so nervous about the appt....1st of all b/c I had to drink at least 32 oz of fluid 45m prior to our appt and I wasnt able to empty my bladder (which mind you it isnt easy for a pregnant lady who can barely hold a small amount for a hr!) and 2nd of all b/c I was worried he or she wouldnt show us the body parts to tell us if it is a Patrick or Emmalin. I got out of the shower about 10m to Noon, so I quickly peed and got ready & grabbed my jug of h2o and headed out to get lunch b4 picking up Neal. I had 30 min to finish 32oz of water, so as I drove I kept slamming the water. I quickly got our lunch & headed over to Best Buy. Neal got out at 12:45 & we ate our lunch as we headed to the clinic. Our Ultrasound was at 1:15, so we arrived to the check in about 10 minutes early...hoping to be able to get in early since this lady had to PEE!!! But as usual they are ALWAYS running late, about 10m after our schedule Ultrasound we got it. I got on the table and waited to see our little angel. Well this little one was very active, moving around when she was looking to see what he or she was. A bit after we got in there, the Ultrasound tech asked me to use the restroom since the baby didnt have to much room to move around since I was filled up with water. I came back & boy could he or she moved around much better! She had no problems telling us it was a boy since he was very much into flashing his private parts!!! He weighs about 11 ounces and is perfect...right down to his long toes! So after our 1 hr ultrasound, we headed up stairs for my 20 wk check up. The nurse weighed me & I'm weighing in at 134.8pds. I quickly used to restroom before the dr came in to check me out. Dr. Rudat told me that the baby looks perfect! He also told me that I've have gained 6 pds since my start of the pregnancy, which is perfect as well! He checked the babies heartbeat & it was at 146. My next appt they check for diabetes, so Nov. 29th I have to hold more fluid...yippee!!! So here is pics of Patrick James Hummel!!
