13 Weeks

We went to the doctor today, my last trip to this doctor.  Anyways, more of the same...our doctor appointments are pretty quick, she just does the ultrasound and that is really it.  The waiting definitely takes MUCH longer than the actual appointment.  Anyways, heart rate was 163bpm to 167bpm, she measured it twice so it varied a little.  It was pretty amazing because the baby was VERY active...he/she was kicking and moving its arms all over the place for a lot of the time...then the baby just settled down and stopped, I guess maybe the baby was tired.  The baby was measuring a little bigger than before, just over 13 weeks, which would be a due date of December 6th, but the doctor said the due date would be moved to December 8th because the other two measurements said December 9th.  So we are staying pretty close to the first estimate, so I will still just keep saying/planning on December 9th because we already knew it could vary by a few days or a week and I don't want to just start saying a day here then next time have it move back a day or two...just silliness.
So here are a few pictures.  We got a video of the ultrasound, which will hopefully shows the baby moving, but it was moving a lot before the doctor started the taping so I don't know if it caught all of it.  Our friend here in Lubbock can convert the VHS to DVD for us, so we will post that later in the week.
