13 Weeks

So, we're 13 weeks and 3 days today.  We had our second doctor's appointment yesterday and everything went well.  We got to hear TBD's little heart beat.  I don't know what the bpm was, but the doc that it sounded really good.  Joey went with us to the appointment so he got to hear his little bro/sis's heartbeat.  He smiled really big when we heard the "thump-thump-thump".  :)  Everything else is going well. 

We did tell the doctor that Michael will be deployed when the baby is due.  We also asked her when we could actually find out the baby's sex.  Michael will be leaving around the 18-week mark so we really wanted to try to get the 20-week ultrasound done earlier than 20 weeks.  After going back and forth about this, she told us that we will do a quick ultrasound around 17 weeks to see if we can find out the sex.  I will still have my 
20-week ultrasound so the docs can do all of their measurements and such.  I really hope TBD is cooperating that day and has their legs opened nice and wide.  Since Michael is gonna be gone for the birth, we're really hoping that he can at least find out the sex before he goes.  

The doc didn't say much about the bleed in my uterus...which somewhat annoyed me.  When I asked about it, she told me to slowly ease back into things and if I have any spotting, then stop that activity.  WTH?   Can't they just do an ultrasound and make sure that bleed is gone?!!?  Ugh!
