Baby Appt

I have my 14 week appt today and I kid you not I was in and out in 18 minutes. 18 minutes. Including check in, blood pressure (118/66), weight (you think I'm telling??? Just kidding +7 so far), finding the heart beat (160bpm), seeing the dr (you taking baby aspirin? yep. Ok keep taking it. See you in 4 weeks), going to the dr's office to see a picture of his friend that he swore I was the spitting image of, setting my next appt (Feb 4) and the BIG ultrasound (feb 19).

While the nurse was trying to find the baby's heart beat (isn't that the most nerve wracking thing ever?), she kept finding it and losing it. She chuckled and said, "This baby is moving around." Oh good. Kiran was very active in the womb (all the ultrasound techs would say, "You have a very active baby" when trying to get measurements) and hasn't really stopped since she was born. I told the nurse today that sometimes I catch myself wishing I could feel the baby move and kick, but then I remember that I'll have 20 weeks to enjoy those lovely bumps, hiccups and esp kicks to the ribs. I'm trying to enjoy the last few weeks of peace.

Since J's parents drove half an hour to watch Kiran for me and she was sleeping when they arrived, I thought that would be awfully unfair for me to show back up just 40 minutes after I left. So I went to Target. And spent all of my Christmas gift cards. Plus five dollars and one cent.
