It’s alive!!

We went to hear the baby’s heart beat yesterday (12/18/08).  It was pretty cool.  It seemed pretty fast too.  180-175 bpm.  The doctor didn’t seem to be concerned by the speed.  She said it was common for it to be so high.  Maybe it’ll be a punk rocker… hopefully not. 😉

The visit was really quick.  It was like check the heart beat, take a picture and then see the receptionist lady who will help you with how much the whole things going to cost.  And then when your feeling down or at least aware to how much having a baby is going to cost they blind side you with a bag of “free gifts” and the fact that your going to have to budget a whole bunch of money seems to melt away and you say, “Oooh goodie bag…”

We got a baby changing deal, so if I’m ever at your house and my baby “makes a present” I can change it right then and there on my handy baby changn’ mat.  (Oh yeah… wow)  There was also a baby bag of sorts (kinda small, I’m not really sure what it’s actually for) and some more pamphlets… I have no idea what to do with all of the pamphlets I’m getting.  I want to read them but there’s so many!

I’m looking forward to future visits to the Dr.  (Did I just say that?)  But getting to know our baby is fun, and exciting.

Thanks for stopping by,
