Doctor appointment

Today we had our third doctor's appointment to check on little Herbie, and everything was great!  It was by far our shortest appointment yet - just spoke with the doctor and she listened to the heartbeat with a little doppler device.

This was the third time we'd heard Herbie's heart beating, but this time was a little different.  In addition to hearing a really strong, regular heartbeat, we also heard these "whooshing" noises.  That, the doctor explained, was the sound of little Herbie squirming around!!!  There was a lot of whooshing, so I guess that means our little guy/girl is keeping busy in there - so crazy!

I'm at 15 weeks now, and the doctor said I'd most likely be able to actually feel Herbie moving between 18-22 weeks, which is right around the corner!

More updates with photos to come - we were in Michigan for a little getaway over the weekend, which was amazing and relaxing.  Plus, I finally broke down and bought my first maternity clothes.  Stay tuned!
