16-week OB visit

Today we had our 16-week visit at Dr. Johnson's office. Sean couldn't come today, so I took Carter instead (much more work than taking Sean). We heard the baby's heartbeat & it was perfectly normal, but they had trouble finding it at first because the baby was so active (I had just eaten lunch). We could hear movement, so I wasn't worried at all, but we almost ended up in the ultrasound room to visualize the heartbeat instead. Finally, the third nurse that came in could hear the baby's heartbeat with the doppler.
They drew blood for routine lab work and we scheduled our next appointment for 20 weeks, that's the BIG one where we get to find out this baby's gender! I hope the baby decides to cooperate more on that visit!
