3rd Midwife visit - timeline 17 weeks and 1 day

Oh gosh that must have been the most happiest visit I have ever had. Not only did she find your heartbeart so fast but you were kicking so much!!! She said it was hard to catch you and keep the doppler receiver on you because you were rolling around everywhere and doing flips. I could not feel a single thing. Sometimes I feel gurgling and "bubbles" when I'm lying on my side but I think it's just gas, I could be wrong though. We took your heart beat at 140 bpm with a LOT of intermittent muffled jolting noises that were your kicks/arm thrusts. What an active baby! She said it was a good sign. So far all signs point to normal - I've gained 5.5lbs and to me, that's on the low side but our midwife assures me that I'm right on track and should be gaining 1 lb a week. Next visit will be on Oct. 1st - the Big Reveal!!!
