(Almost) Four Months Prenatal Appointment

Well, the doctor visit yesterday was pretty uneventful, which is a good thing. We listened to the baby's heartbeat--always a thrilling experience. It was amazing--he put his little ultrasound thingy up to my belly, and immediately we could hear the quick tha-thump, tha-thump, tha-thump. The heart rate was 155, which the doc said was normal and good. I've only gained a 1/2 pound! That is unbelievable, because I can't button up any of my pants!! That ususally takes a weight gain of 5 or 10 lbs, in my experience.

We did simulated interviews this week in my English Methods class, with us taking turns in the hot seat and asking each other some tough questions. This made me realize that I'll need to get a maternity business suit, because I'll go for job interviews either in the next month or two (if I passed my test) or in the spring, when I'll be six to nine months pregnant! And my methods teacher told us not to divulge any personal details in the interview...my belly's going to do the talking for me!
