The first four months!!!

Ok.....so, this is a bit late to start the commentary, but I'll start anyway. Today is our 17th week!! We just heard the heartbeat at Dr. Menon's office last week. i have it on videotape. Wait...lemme post it on here for your listening pleasure.

Sri is doing great. There are moments of nausea. sleepiness. But, overall.....she's 'holding' it together pretty good. I need to tone down the weekend activities so she can get some rest, but she's been enjoying the baby ride so far.

Just to summarize and catch everybody up. We found out on President's Day (2/17) with a positive test. We had signed up with Dr. Menon and got confirmation from her within a week. There was a precautionary ultrasound taken in early March........we saw a flicker (a.k.a. The Heartbeat). Then....on April 10th, we (I mean, "I") heard the heartbeat. bood-um, bood-um....so fast....and so cool!!

I've been reading up all kinds of stuff to figure out the baby stuff. There's a lot of food that Sri can't eat. Not that she would have eaten it anyway, but there are quite a few of dietary restrictions. The first four months have been very interesting. Sri has been doing well and is fortunate that the morning sickness hasn't gotten the best of her. We went to Barbados and keeping busy with the VPA stuff. Now, I just need to find a way to FEED her!!

Well, we're coming up on our ultrasound appointment on June 6th. We can find out the sex if we want here. But, NO!!! We are going to wait. Yes, yes...I know......pretty uncommon these days. We'll just have to have a boy and girl name handy.

All for now, mates. I have some anti-stretch mark cream to apply to The Belly.
