11+ Weeks

We had another OB appointment today and got to hear the baby's heartbeat!!  The heartrate was 150, which is great because it should be between 120-160.  Everything else is going well and maybe I'll be able to get some good sleep now because the doc prescribed me ambien.  I've never had a problem falling asleep or staying asleep - it may have to do with working nights right now - but it just seems cruel.  I've never been more tired in my life and now I can't sleep! 

Anyhow - so Matt and I decided today that we are not going to find out the baby's sex until the baby is born.  I think this will be exciting, but I think we are going to have some disappointed grandmas :(  Just for fun I had to take a peek at the chinese gender calender and - brace yourselves - it says I will have a girl!!  Who knows how true this is - we'll find out in 30 weeks or so!!

Halloween

Here's a pic from Halloween last weekend.  I was a "Bun in the Oven" and Matt was the "Bun Maker."  We went to a party with some people from Matt's work, we had a great time and I even stayed out until 1am! 

When we first found we were pregnant, I said that I wanted to wait until I delivered to find out the sex of the baby, but Matt wanted to find out ASAP.  Our friends Jeff and Meg are due in 4 weeks and they are waiting to find out; anyway, Jeff told Matt that they haven't spent a lot of money on the baby because they don't know the sex.  Well, what happens when you're married to a marketing/financial analyst?  He now decides that he doesn't want to find out either!  Just when I was getting used to the idea...We'll see - we still have a long time to decide :)

Next week we have another OB appointment and will get to hear the baby's heart beat!!
