4th Dr. Appointment

I had my 4th doctor appointment today, and I went in thinking I was 18 weeks and 2 days, only to find out I'm 17 weeks and 4 days, and my newest due date is February 23, 2012. It's getting hard to keep track of, even for me! Apparently, after looking at Sonogram I did last month, this is what my doctor decided, and the nurse was unaware of this when I called to find out last month.  So I get to be pregnant an extra 5 days (or maybe I'll go early now?) I feel like I'm going backwards...however my doctor did say that they won't change the date again unless they think it's off by more than 3 weeks (which is highly unlikely, but who knows.) The good thing is I'm getting closer and closer to having a leap year baby!

Anyway, the appointment itself went well, and the heartbeat was found immediately, and was around 140. Even though this seems low (which could indicate boy) Travis seems to think it will be a girl. I've also starting gaining real weight finally. I gained 6 lbs between the last appointment (almost 5 weeks ago) and this one, so that's why I'm showing now. We scheduled our 20-week Ultrasound for Monday, October 10th, so that's when we'll finally find out what we're having!
