Week 16 - Belly Update


Ok... I think I'm showing!

We are at week 16--that's right, 4 months. For those of you who are just now hearing this news--I'll give you a second to pick yourself up off the floor and come to the realization that the Conner's are, in fact, reproducing. . .

We had our 3rd doctor's visit today--and after a good 1 and a half hours of sitting in the waiting room w/ screaming children (I'm sure this is planned for conditioning new parents), we got to see an ACTUAL doctor (thus far we've only seen the nurse practitioner). Everything was "perfect, perfect, perfect"--which seems to be the only words we hear there, other than--"we're going to have to take some blood today"! So I'm thinking I must be really good at being pregnant, b/c I've never done ANYTHING "perfect, perfect, perfect"! We got to hear the heartbeat today--it was 151 bpm--very strong!

Things have been going well, and have been pretty uneventful so far. I'm getting a belly--and my belly button gets more and more shallow every day--I'm sure all of you are just so thrilled to know all of this! The excitement really picks up next month when we will have our 2nd and final ultrasound to find out the sex of Baby Conner. . . :)

Nice belly!!!! You know you got to stop smoking and drinking while you are pregnant ;)

Thanks for sharing your blog. It will be fun to keep track with you.

To all of Melanie's family:

My comment about her quitting smoking and drinking was a joke. Melanie is a perfect angel who would never do anything like that.

Hope I didn't scare anyone,

Robert

PS- I promise that Melanie didn't make me post this comment!
