Mean doctors. What up with that?

Above is the sonogram from yesterday. I'm 23 weeks. Six months next week and it's going by very quickly. He's definitely a boy, which is good, having only purchased boy things. He's kicking like crazy. It's exciting but it feels like, you know, your being kicked from the inside out, little bit freaky, so after a while, I'm like. . . OK, baby that's not so much fun for mommy anymore.

We finally switched doctors. I've told this a million times so you may have heard it - but my doctor was the nastiest woman ever. I kept thinking I was being overly sensitive - but no - she was definitely hateful. Well, she was hateful until Todd showed her he could put the side of his glasses up his nose and then she was ALL about us. Too late, I was already over her. Our new doctor is fabulous, FABULOUS. We love him!!! And Todd didn't even have to do any sideshow stunts to get him to like us. (However . . . . . we did have to have Dara Gottfried, Gilbert's wife . . . put in a call for us to even get seen by him, since they recommended him . . . .but that's another story)

Also;

You know, you watch movies and see women getting their sonograms. The ultrasound tech says, "Look, there's the baby's leg, oh look there that's the spine, and if you look over there, that's the ear and there's the mouth." Todd and I have yet to have this experience. The techs don't so much care about any of this and rarely speak out loud. And even when we ask, "what's that" we get very mumbled "femur 4 side, b m j." . . . . .

OK, I don't know what that means. . . . .

We try kidding around but apparently they all think we're idiots. Maybe it's us. Their all just so serious.

My mom came up to see the sonogram and so far she has been the only person to feel the baby kick.

So we're good. Baby is coming along perfectly and we love that. I have great friends who are new moms and are recommending dotors, gadgets, tricks. All kinds of stuff. So thank you very much. It is all welcomed!
