The beginning of October marks the beginning of when I started feeling the baby move consistently. It was like suddenly the baby figured out that it could stretch its little hands and legs and hasn't stopped since! Even though I wasn't required to get fetal movement counts yet, I was still eager to feel the baby move and became a little paranoid when I wouldn't feel it for hours on end.At this appointment, however, baby was sure to let us know he/she was there! This was the first appointment that Chris attended with me and was able to meet my favorite midwife, Vanessa. She found the baby's heartbeat right away and even though we heard the heartbeat at our u/s, it was a lot of fun hearing it together in the examination room. The funniest part was the baby kicked the doppler when she was finding the heartbeat! Yes, our baby was opinionated and it did not like that doppler!
I was 22.5 weeks at this appointment and this would be my last monthly appointment. After this, I would be going biweekly.
