Baby Crazy

Wow. We got to spend some time with our friends and their 6 week old son yesterday. It was awesome. We hadn't seen them in a long time, as they moved to Chicago last year, so it was great to catch up, and of course, wonderful to meet their new addition. After holding this little baby in my arms yesterday, I am even more anxious than ever for the razz to get here. I can't believe our little one is only about 3.5 inches long, but in 28 weeks will be around 20 inches and in my arms! I wouldn't even believe there's a baby in there, except that we heard the heartbeat at the 6 week ultrasound and again by doppler at our 10 week appointment. We will have another appointment at 14 weeks, and I'm sure we'll try to hear it again, but everyone says it's hard to hear it if you are overweight (which I am) so I'm a little apprehensive about even trying to hear it again. Thankfully, we'll be having another ultrasound at 17 weeks so even if we don't hear it at 14 weeks, we'll get another round of reassurance pretty soon after. And as a bonus, we'll get to find out the gender! We are SO anxious to know! It's not that we will be happier one way than the other, we just want to know!!! AHHH!
