Week 15

Took Matthew to the doctors with us.  We told him he would be hearing the babies heartbeat.  He still does not completly understand I'm sure, but he's excited.  It took the doctor a bit to find the heartbeat, she expected it to be a bit lower, but baby was hiding up on the top right side.  The heartbeat was good, about 168 beats a minute. That is right where it is supposed to be.  I decided not to do the quad test, that predicts percentage that you might have a child with a problem.  With the stress of finding a new car that is actually in our price range, and michael having time to look for one..haha (since ours was totaled when someone ran into michael), michael gone a lot more (at least 6 days a week for 12 to 14 hours a day, not including homework..sure some of you know how that goes),  and me trying to put some finishing touches on a stake activity that I'm partially in charge of, we decided the stress of extra possible worry would not be needed. We decided if they see anything weird on the ultrasound we will do other testing at that time.  Until then we've got enough on our plate, and by then some of these other things will fizzle out.  Other than that things are looking good.
I was over morning sickness about week 12, and have been feeling much better, although still a bit tired since Matthew still wakes up at least once at night.  I hope one day that will change!  However, I am glad I feeling well enough to walk about 1/2 hour or so since I don't have a car right now.  This is good :).
