Wiggle worm

I had a Dr's appointment last week right before we went on a short vacation, so this update is a little late. Baby's doing good. He/she didn't like the heartbeat wand and rolled over to avoid it. But his/her heart beat was good and strong at about 150bpm. I'm doing much better. The exaustion is almost gone and I can now return to cooking everything except beef. There's just something about that particular meat that i can't stand. The cravings have started and are stronger than my first pregnancy. I had to have Mike's Chinese, and Dukes BBQ and bread-n-butter pickles all in the same week (not in the same sitting!!). and the absolute best thing that's happened all week: I can feel the baby! It's not often, only when I'm still and then the baby has to be awake. And it's only strong movements, like kicks and streches. It's been very exciting! We still have about 6/7 weeks before we can find out the gender of the baby, so until then it's just going to have to be a little wiggle worm. (makes sense, since Sydney is my Bug) More updates later, and a picture as soon as I can steal it back from Yaya (my mother stole the ultrasound picture!)
