Waiting to exhale....

Today I had a doctor's visit and everthing looks and sounds normal. BIG EXHALE.
It's amazing how slowly time goes by when you are aching to hear your baby's heartbeat. Since I can't feel it move yet (for sure) I never know if that time I bumped my belly into a door or sneezed to hard did anything to the babe. It feels like it sometimes when I sneeze or move too quickly I can feel some pain down there.
My next visit is October 15th...same day as my sister's birthday. Do you KNOW what that visit entails?!?! 20 week visit, baby (is that a pun?)! Ultrasound to see if it's Nathaniel or Olivia. Yes, those are the names we are warming up to so...only comment on them if they are positive. Otherwise, you will be on my s- list. Even my mom likes the names, so if you don't then you have no idea how picky you are and you should see someone about it.
So, I can rest easy...that will probably last a week if I am luck and then I will start counting down the days, T minus October 15.
The day after we find out, we leave for Vegas, baby. A "babymoon", as it is known in the biz. The last hurrah while you don't have kids to worry about. I have some great food and Cirque d'O to look forward to. October will be an exciting month!
