Another Baby Doctor Visit

Good morning Belle!

We just got back from the baby doctor and are very happy with our progress! Mommy gained another 5 lbs and the doctor is happy. So we now stand at 124 lbs! We heard your heartbeat again, very strong at 150 beats/min. Mommy managed to record it this time for Daddy (and your grand parents too!) to listen to because he couldn't make it to our appointment today.

Mommy asked why she is feeling some subtle "pins and needles" under her breast bone and the doctor checked and said that you were the delivery position (head-down) now and most probably the sensation is from you resting your feet up against Mommy's ribs! Yikes...when you grow bigger, please don't start kicking Mommy in the ribs, OK?

From now on, our appointment schedule is once every 2 weeks instead of 4...we are getting closer and closer to meeting each other. YAY!

Love, Mom

i enjoy reading your blog. i lost mine just a lil while ago. i was very contented and happy knowing i have a heartbeat under my shirt. i kept track of the path with my lil one till i lose it, i often wonder what would it be now if i didn't lose it. your blog reminds me alot of what could have been mine. Little Belle will be glad to have you both and she'll be the luckiest newborn ever :) Congratulations.

Dear other side,

Thank you for reading my blog and leaving your comment. It brought a tear to my eye and I am very sorry for your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers and I hope you will soon grow another "heartbeat under your shirt" again. And when you do, please drop me a note so I may share in your joy! Thank you for sharing in mine.

Take care of yourself and Happy Holidays!
