Okay I'm not quite 16 weeks (will be on Friday) but I had my 16 week appointment today. Everything looks good but baby does not like the doppler. He/she kept moving away as the doctor tried again and again to pin down the heartbeat. Since I can feel baby pretty well now, I was able to help by saying "baby just moved over there", "now baby is over there", etc but it wasn't really helping since baby just moved the second the doppler went over him/her. Finally the doctor found the heartbeat, which was 160 beats per minute, and I got to feel and hear lots of movement from baby so that was pretty neat. Rob and I tried to get Hannah to pay attention to the heartbeat but she was busy drawing and decently unimpressed. I thought maybe she would be interested since she loves to pat baby, kiss mommy's belly, and is constantly asking for me to "open baby", but she was busy writing her name (obviously she can't actually write her name, that's just what she told us she was doing) and playing with the little barbie doll she got from McDonalds.
I made my 20 week appointment and ultrasound for Nov 10 at 9am. Very exciting!

Yeah, QT was totally dodging the doppler last visit too. Chris could care less. He was bored by that "show on TV", wanted to watch Sesame Street during my ultrasound. How sweet that Hannah is so into the baby.
