It's a......

Baby! With very distinct features such as rib bones, feet, and a skull.  Hooray!  

    We visited the doctor today and tried to sneak a peek at the baby, but Hoagie kept his/her legs shut the entire visit.  Such modesty!  We were able to see Hoagie's adorable little feet, hugenormous umbilical cord, all kinds of bones, and saggy skin (not very much fat yet, but just wait).  The doctor said the baby's looking good, and that I'm pretty fortunate to be able to feel the baby's movements so early.  She said that was one of the bonuses of being so "twiggy." I guess she hasn't seen my ass lately.  I got a flu shot and Ryan got a list of shots he has to get before the baby comes (mawahahaha).  For some reason he got pleasure out of seeing the nurse stick my arm with the flu shot and then comment, "maybe I shouldn't have used such a BIG NEEDLE on such a tiny person; that's why you're bleeding so much. Huh."  So I'm relishing the thought of my squeamish husband having to go through his own vaccinations (and maybe just a little discomfort).

   In other news, I finally started going to yoga again and this time I get to go to the Prenatal classes.  Meaning that I get to spend an hour and a half in the same room as 15 other moaning, farting, yummy preggers ladies.  Last night the instructor told us we should be doing 200 Kegels a day.  Are you kidding?  Is that why I keep peeing myself when I sneeze?  Up to this point it's been a good day if I get in 15 or 20.  Bonjour, pelvic floor, looks like you and I are about to get a lot better acquainted.  

  Ok, that's all for today.  Hopefully Thursday I will have some more news about the baby's sex.

Oh, and I'll get Ryan to post some of today's ultrasounds when he gets home from work.
