Second Midwife Visit

Eli and I went to see the midwife today. I knew it would be a short appointment, so I figured it was safe to bring him. He was very antsy, and not too happy to wake up early to make it on time, but all in all he did ok. (He even let the midwife hold him while the other midwife found the heartbeat on the doppler.) At the 'heartbeat' appointment with Eli, the midwife found it right away - literally as soon as she touched my stomach. This time it took several minutes, which is quite normal considering the baby is just over two inches long. Once she found it, the heartbeat was strong and loud. (BTW, Eli was very fascinated by this whole process.) Photo is 13+weeks.
