24 Weeks

Today was my 24 week doctor's appointment.  According to my doctor, I'm perfect--at least my uterus is.  And the baby is perfect too--he's got a good heartbeat and he was moving around.  And my belly--it's perfect too, so he's growing as expected.

I like how my doctor is always so enthusiastic about the progress of my pregnancy.  Last month she complimented me on my weight gain (who would have thought gaining 10 lbs would earn me such praise?).

We had another milestone this week too--Marty felt the baby kick for the first time.  It was fun to see the look on Marty's face when he felt it.  He said it brought a whole new level of reality to feel the baby moving.  He thinks we might have a ninja baby.

At work recently I've had several comments to the effect of, "What are we going to do when you're out on maternity leave?"  I heard that at least one attorney suggested that they just wouldn't let the baby come out.  I guess that means I've made a good impression in my first six months at this job.  Even so, I'm not on board with the baby not coming out plan.
