My Gummi Bear

I don't know why I was nervous about the dr appt. Liane (RN/midwife) is amazing! We get to meet Dr Campaigne next time. Liane answered all of our questions, was supportive of our biker lifestyle - told me to ride as long as I'm comfortable! - and was so excited and proud of my weightloss journey with the band. She said the baby will take what baby needs and to continue eating healthy but not worry about if I'm eating enough, baby will be great! We're going to watch baby's growth and if it's not growing according to schedule, then we'll make eating changes as needed.

Liane asked us is we had any feelings on the sex. We said we just want healthy, no preference on boy or girl. She said - but what do you feel?? Our answers were surprisingly similar. My husband said 'I feel like we're going to find out it's a boy, but it'll end up being a girl.' I said 'I try to imagine it as a girl but everything in me denies it and says boy.' It was awesome to say that out loud and hear Hubby's thoughts. We talk about everything involving baby, but somehow hadn't told each other our feelings on gender!

Unfortunately, we did not get to hear the heartbeat. The ultrasound tech is only in the office on Tues and Fri. HOWEVER... we did get to SEE the baby!!! Liane is a woman of many talents and can work the video part of the sonogram machine =) Baby is so beautiful!!
