Baby Rothe is one normal, healthy, growing baby!

We had our 20 week ultrasound today after nearly 14 weeks without seeing our baby on the big screen.  Our little one was not into moving much, just squirming around on the ultrasound moving its arms, legs, and head and every once in a while giving us a yawn as to say, "come on, stop bugging me."  We got some great profile shots of our Baby R and Joyce, our tech, did a great job of concealing the gender.  She said she knew what we were having and David almost gave in to find out by asking me if we should.  But I stood firm.  We're going to wait and get a surprise.  Two relatives now have said the ultrasound profile looks like them!  It is hilarious.  Half the time during the ultrasound, we could tell what we were looking at.  But we are happy to report that our little guy or girl has all ten fingers and toes, four chambers of their heart, a good looking belly and brain, and two kidneys.  He or she is also comfy crossing their little legs and making fists.  Their bladder and heart are working great!  Although the 25 minutes ultrasound was exciting, we know really cannot wait to actually see him or her and get to know them in person!  As Bon Jovi would says, Ohhhh....wer're half-way there!  And my belly is getting huge.  It feels like it doubled overnight.  I have also begun to feel the rolling of our moving little one.  Baby R really likes to move around 6 pm at night till about midnight.  I feel what I can only describe as popcorn or that stomach like dropping feeling only its in my belly each time the little one moves.  Heartbeat has remained consistant at about 145 per minute, faster if it is later at night.  Dave is getting the feeling that this is for real now!  During the ultrasound he couldn't stop smiling or recording it on video using his blackberry.  He kept asking questions like what is that or is that his belly, arm...etc.  He is using he a little too much!  What if we've got a little Jenni in here!  I am stuck with using little one or baby r.  I am not sure what gender our baby is, but I will be so happy with either boy or girl.  Time seems to be flying!  We met with our first daycare prospect two days ago.  It has been a busy last few days.  Next I know I will want to do that nursery!  I've been hooked on searching the internet for bedding and ideas. Gender neutral is hard...but we are keeping firm about not knowing!  Here's to being halfway there and feeling good!  Here's to also knowing there is only one baby in there.  We got a little scare the other day while using the doppler...heard two heartbeats but realize now that one was the cord!  More later....
