21 weeks

We had another 4 week check up today (21 weeks), and oh the joys of waiting.  The receptionist came out to all of us waiting asking which Dr. we were seeing.  All of us were seeing the same one....she let us know the Doctor was about 30-40 mins behind schedule.  Well, considering there were 6 of us, I knew that wasn't true!  So I asked if I could run an errand and be back--so I picked up Madi's dog food, and got a knitted pair of booties that I have had my eye on but the store is only open Thurs. -Sun.  And got back to the doctors office just in time for them to call my name, and then I got to sit in another room for 20 mins!  Haha. Well, everything is great.  Ultrasound is normal (baby's weight is great, enough fluid, heartbeat of 150, has all its limbs and the placenta is healthy).  My wt. gain is right on target for where I am supposed to be to, 11 lbs. to date!  Today was the first time that I had my belly measured too--the fondus is right on track for 21 weeks--so all is swell!  I learned a new phrase from a friend in New Zealand..."up the huff"= pregnant!
