16 week check-up

I had my 16 week appointment yesterday and everything looked good. The baby is growing like crazy. He/She was quite active avoiding the doppler for a few minutes before we could get the heartrate, which was 160 this time. We have set the date for the big ultrasound, it is on the 16th. Mark gets to be here and be a part of it this time, Yay! We are still working on the name thing. Have not quite settled on a girl name yet, but who knows, maybe we wont have a need to worry about it. My nausea is starting to fade now....so thankful for that! The backache is picking up a bit in the evenings, but I knew it was coming. Overall I am starting to have a bit more energy and able to go back to trying to eat healthy, rather than trying to eat what will stay down. I met my new O.B. yesterday as well. My midwife decided to retire 2 months too soon, but she deserves the break, even though I will miss her. She has told me she will be at my delivery if she is in town....cool! Dr. Garnass was pleasant and seems very profesional, yet friendly. I think we will get along fine. He was good with my decisions to decline certain testing, and that made a good impression with me. Have not always had that reaction with O.B.'s. Also he did not make the usual negative comments associated with our family size that I am used to getting. That was nice. So stay tuned for the big news in a couple of weeks.... what will the newest little Jensen be? Boy or Girl....what do you think?
