My Second Doctor's Appointment (Aug. 25, 2009)

Today, Dennis met me at the doctor's office for my second appointment. Since my first ultrasound was a bit early in my pregnancy, I was able to have another one, and I was very happy to have Dennis there. Though he is a bit shy in situations like this, Dennis was very good during the ultrasound. At this point in time, we actually got to hear the baby's heartbeat. I couldn't believe that it had a heartbeat since it was just a little round clump, but it did. It was an emotional time, and I could tell that it was very real for Dennis at that point. He knew for certain that I was pregnant. At one point, the ultrasound technician had to find my ovaries to look at them on the screen, which was a bit uncomfortable. Dennis was a true champ by rubbing my arm and being my support. He's going to make a great labor partner! :)
