16 week check-up

I went to the doctor today for my 16 week check-up. Everything is looking great. I've gained a total of six pounds so far (not sure if I can blame that all on the baby, or if the holidays are to blame!). My blood pressure was 110/60. I was very excited about this. My blood pressure ran high almost my whole pregnancy with Makayla. Pray that it stays this low. The baby's heartbeat was strong and was beating 150-160 beats per minute. The doctor giggled and said, "Wow, I can hear that baby kicking. It's really moving around in there." That's exactly how Makayla was!!! :)

I've been feeling great and can't believe it's been 16 weeks already. What a special time in our lives!
