Baby Appointment

Dear Baby No Name,
We had our appointment for you this morning. Mommy is 26 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Daddy & Landon came along to the appointment. Landon was very excited to hear your heartbeat! We saw Dr. Rosado today, she delivered Landon. We talked all about you-Mommy always has questions for the doctors. Mommy filled out the necessary paperwork. Mommy's blood pressure was a little different today and I am having swelling in my hands and ankles, so Dr. Rosado is sending Mommy for a few tests tomorrow morning. One is the glucose test-Mommy has to drink a liquid, tastes like orange soda, and then have some blood drawn. Mommy & Daddy scheduled another ultrasound for next Wednesday, February 24, 2010-we are very excited to be able to see you again! Daddy, Landon & I listened to your heartbeat today-it was between 144-150. We love hearing your heartbeat-brings smiles to us all. You kicked a few times while we were listening to your heartbeat. Your older brother Landon wanted to hear the baby in his belly's heartbeat too, so once Mommmy was done, Landon crawled up on the table and listened to his baby's heartbeat. He was so excited, his face just lit up, but he was also being shy and kept his hands over his face. Once Mommy was finished asking all of her questions, we scheduled our next appointment for you, next week, February 25th.
You are really beginning to move around and kick more-your favorite times are after lunch, in the evening and when Mommy & Daddy go to bed. You are about 9-9.25 inches long, weigh about two pounds, and you are about the size of a Liter of soda! You are growing so quickly in there! I apologize in advance because soon you will be out of room in there!

Love you,
Mommy
