12 weeks and 5 days !

So monday I went to the doctor , I was 12 weeks and 5 days . The doctor let us hear the heartbeat thru the doppler , they said it was a little quieter than normal , but nothing to be alarmed about . Probably just the position the baby is in . They said it's 158 beats/minute , which an old wives tale will tell you a heartbeat around 160 means it's a girl . But who believes those old wives tales , maybe some people ! I was ordered to go and take a couple blood tests and do a sonogram at the prenatal center . So I'll be posting some info on that soon . It was a rather short visit.. but informative nonetheless !
