heart beats....boom boom boom

we had our appt with dr. messer on wednesday & we got to hear the little babies heartbeat & it took her a second to find it but when she did...the swoosh swoosh sound was beautiful! 150 bpm! got all our little questions answered!

i also had my cardiology appt last week & that went well! everything looks good! stress test is good as well as the echocardiogram! yay! just said i have a high heart rate....resting at 105! :) thankfully my sis jill has this same thing- all the time! i just didn't know my baseline so they needed to make sure all was well with my heart. & i have to continue checking my blood pressure 2-3 times a week- but its been REALLY good :)

we won't find out if its a boy or girl til middle to end of april! but that will come FAST i know it. i can't believe i'm 3 months pregnant already.

i've grown out of most my jeans- super uncomfortable when buttoned but i haven't gained any weight yet! :) its fun buying maternity clothes though- so i wont complain!

i'm happy to say we have our names picked out either way, but for the few of you who DON'T know what they are---- i'll keep it a secret til we know what we are having!

I posted on FB & now everyone knows- if they understood the picture & caption with the Mini M&M :)

my next post will be about my trip to MICHIGAN! yay!!! its been 3 years since i've been there! i cannot wait!
