Daddy Hears Baby's Heartbeat

Monday I had my second baby appointment and this time Will got to get off work early to come with me! I was so excited just because I knew the doctor would listen to the baby's heartbeat so Will was going to get to hear it for the first time. He really wanted the doctor to do an ultrasound but she had just done one four weeks ago so I knew she wasn't going to do another. The first thing he asked when he heard it was, "Why is it so fast? Is that normal?" I knew the first time that I heard it that it was normal only because I have a sister and a sister-in-law who have kids, so I kinda already know what to expect. Ann also just had a baby 8 months ago so she also reminds me of what is normal.

It was a very strong heartbeat and the doctor was VERY happy with it. She seems to think that my next appointment in four weeks she will be able to tell us if it is a boy or girl... That is if i wanna find out... I just can't wait for the next appointment only because I get to see the baby again and see how much he/she has grown.
