Baby Fowler

I went to my obgyn this afternoon for a check-up and all is well! I have lost 4 lbs. since my last check-up at 7 weeks. They weren't concerned about the weight loss because they said it is pretty normal in the first trimester is you have been having nausea. I got to hear the heartbeat again. The doctor felt around on my stomach for a few seconds and then put the doppler instrument on my stomach and I could immediately hear that little baby! Baby Fowler was cooperating nicely because she said she usually has to search around for a minute. The heartrate was 166. Other than that, everything is going well. I am 12 weeks tomorrow and starting to see a light at the end of the morning sickness tunnel. I am still wearing my regular clothes for now, although some of them are fitting more snuggly at the waistband. Thank you to my sister, Allison, Miranda, and Amy D. for letting me borrow maternity clothes. I am looking forward to getting to use them!

Glad everything is going well. I found the 4lbs. you lost! I was really sick with Allie and lost weight. I think the heartbeat is the best sound in the world!

Yea! So glad that God is weaving together my new little niece or nephew safely. (I think it's niece b/c of the high heart rate and morning sickness. Both Aaris and Skylyn had high heart rates and I was never sick a day with Titus.)
