Does anybody know morse code?

This fetus is a genius! I am convinced that she knows morse code for "Mom, I need more room. Please pee... now!" She can pound it out with her feet and fists... in-between somersaults, of course. Maybe she is practicing to be a gymnast? When she first started getting squirmy, I was convinced that she would be a soccer player or a tennis star. I was sitting on the couch watching World Cup soccer and Wimbledon, she'd go nuts!

In all truthfulness, today the doctor confirmed that the baby knows everything she needs to at this point... she keeps her heartbeat steady and strong. The other great news is that 6 blood draws later, I have passed all of my glucose tolerance tests.

The doctor visits will start to increase now. We'll go every two weeks, instead of every four weeks. We'll also have the opportunity to meet other doctors and a midwife from the practice. There is an on-call rotation, so it's nice to get familiar with everyone who might be around when Mather decides it's time to arrive.

We were supposed to meet the midwife today, but his schedule got a little hectic. Yes, the midwife is a man... does that make him a mid-husband? I've heard great things about him from two of my pre-natal yoga instructors (they are also doulas who are familiar with all the local midwifes). We've got another appointment to meet him in two weeks.

That's all for now... Mather thinks it's time for lunch, so I better get on it!
