We had another doctor's appointment yesterday. I was scared we were going to be late because our Utah weather kicked in and started to snow. Our house got about 4 inches and that was just during the day. I was lucky that my team allowed me to leave early. They are so awesome!!
Anyway, we got to the doctor's office. I had to use the bathroom so I ran down the hall while Tyler signed us in. We waited 3 mins and they called us back. This has never happened before. I'm not complaining though :). So the nurse is showing us to our room. She takes my weight and I have lost 3 lbs. Since my first visit, it has been 7 lbs total. It takes me to get pregnant to finally lose weight!?! I'm glad I haven't lost too much though because I know that is bad.
The nurse then asks me if I can pee in a cup (sorry so blunt). Of course they ask me after I have already gone to the bathroom. The nurse told me that they want to do this everytime I come in. That would have been nice to know. I guess they will have to wait to the next time. So, we went into our room where she took my blood pressure, which was good, and then I was asked to lay down. She brought a tiny machine in with her. I have never seen this one before. She then told me that we were going to hear the heart beat!
It was the coolest thing ever!! I did have to ask if it was a good rate. I don't know anything about rates, even my own. She said it was good and we will hear it every time from now on. I got tears in my eyes thinking that there is a little person in my stomach right now. It is such a wonderful experience. The doctor then came in, talked to us for 2 mins and then we were done. The fastest appointment I have ever had! It was great! Our next appointment in 4 weeks will give us our exact due date, we get a 3D ultrasound with a DVD, and we will know the gender of our little one! It is so exciting!!!
That is all that happened for now. We will keep you updated, especially after the next appointment. What do you think I am having? A boy or a girl? Just want to see what people think ;)

I don't care which one you have! I'm just excited that you are pregnant! Yeah for babies!!
Funny you posted about the sex of the baby. I had a dream about you the other night and that you gave birth to a 10lb baby GIRL!!
I'm usually wrong with the gender so your probably having a boy.
Glad to hear everything is great with your pregnancy.
Show us an ultrasound picture
I think it's a boy. That's so weird that you're losing weight. How does that happen?
Having a baby is so amazing! And when you get to feel the baby move inside your tummy is the most inexplicable feeling. You will get to experience that soon and you will LOVE it. And either a boy or a girl... they are so much fun...
