Week 21 Doctor Visit

Our visit went very well yesterday. I have gained back 5 pounds. (I am still down a total of 5 pounds.) I should only gain a pound a week, and I have about 20 weeks left. If I behave I will hopefully only have gained 15 pounds total. I don't eat very much sugar, but when those girl scout cookies come in I think someone will have to hide them from me. I have not had a problem cutting out the canned Dr. Pepper, but I can't resist that fountain DP. Guess I will have to if I don't want to be the size of a whale.

Our nurse went over the sonogram results and said that everything looked good. Garrett measured a week ahead, but there is also a +/- 2 weeks in there. His heart rate was at 144BPM. Our next visit is March 8th. At that time we will finally get to start meeting the doctors. I will have to change my days around since each doctor is at that office on a different day. After the next visit we will have one more visit on the monthly interval and then we will start going every two weeks.

We got a card to pre-register at the hospital. We also got the information to go do a tour. The time is getting closer. We are going to make the final arrangements for the bedding next weekend. Then, we can pick out the paint and start that whole process. I think it will finally look like we are having a baby when we get the nursery done.
