IT'S A BOY!!!

Well, today was our 20 week visit. And baby Schaper is a boy! His heart rate was 132 BPM. He weighs 11 ounces!! The appointment went good. They said I am right where I should be for 20 weeks, so everything is going good!! Here are a few pictures from our visit!

This is a perfect shot of his leg. He sure looks stretched out and comfortable!

His cute little foot.....

And this is just a profile shot. He was curled up in a little ball when she took this one!

And last but not least.... a 20 week picture of my growing belly!

November 12 Visit- Plus a week 16 pic

Here is a picture at 16 weeks- which was last week. It's kind of far away but it will have to do! Jewels figured she needed to be part of the picture too!

November 12th doctor visit update: We went in and tried to hear the heartbeat- but she couldn't pick it up-- kinda scary! She said all she could hear was mine. So she had them do an ultrasound so they could see that there was a heartbeat- and there was- thank goodness! The heart rate was 134 BPM- considerably lower than last time so Dane is convinced that it's a boy for sure! :) We got lucky enough to get a couple of pictures to take home with us! This first one is a whole body shot which is kind of neat!!

This second one is kind of hard to see but you can see the face and then his or her little arms up by the face!!

That's the update for this week. We go in December 10th and get to have the official ultrasound!

Picture at 13 weeks

Kind of a cheesy picture, I know. But I had Chandra take it in a hurry!! Maybe next time I'll actually look at the camera and maybe throw in a smile!!! :)

Second Visit!!

Well, today was our second doctor's visit. We got to hear the heartbeat today- which made it a little more real! That was very exciting! The baby was very low in my pelvis and was kind of being naughty when we were trying to hear the heart. Every time she found the heartbeat, the baby would move around!! The heart rate was 168 BPM! According to my research- it's a girl!!! hehe :)
I am starting to get a little tummy now- so maybe by my next appointment I will have to start posting some pics of it! Well, until next time.... Have a good one!

FIRST APPOINTMENT: September 15th- went well. Nothing too major to report yet! We just learned the basics..... Can't take this, can't eat or drink that! :)
Our next appointment is October 15th- I will be about 12 weeks along then and we should be able to hear the baby's heart beat!! That's all! Have a good week!
