Heartbeat

We got to hear #2's heartbeat yesterday. It was a strong 158 bpm. Bubbie's heartbeat was always high, up around 180-190. I have a feeling this one is a girl, but I don't have my big ultrasound until July 15.

I'm actually a lot more nervous this time around - I blame the internet. I feel like I know too much, not as blissfully ignorant as I was with Bubbie. I go to a pregnancy/parenting message board a lot and there are a lot of women who end up miscarrying or having other problems. There are so many things that can happen that I just didn't really consider when I was pregnant before. Needless to say, I've been a nervous wreck.

I just have to tell myself that everything will be okay and we're going to have an amazing and healthy little brother or sister for our little boy.
