Its not in my head its in my stomach

Today was OB appt. number two.  Brad again joined me and I have to say I am glad he came after the last appointment.  We were both nervous walking into the waiting room because it seemed to be full.  So we both just sat down and automatically pulled out our books assuming the long wait.  I had just started reading a new chapter in NEW MOON and decided a little time with my book might be okay.  We sat for about a grand total of maybe 2 minutes before I was called back.  I guess that sort of makes up for the 1.5 hour wait we suffered last month.  I found out I am now 1 pound heavier than I was 4 weeks ago and all my lab work was normal.  My glucose test was completely normal!!!  First thought I want the fully loaded Ice cream and no more of that no sugar added crap!!!  I plan on fully enjoying every second of not being pre-diabetic.  My asthma to has been kept completely at bay lately.  I have become the perfect host for my lovely little parasite.  Not only that we heard our little one's heart beat for the first time.  It took the dr. awhile to find it which made us both a little crazy.  When she did find it though it was awesome the dr. said you are definately pregnant.  It's not in your head anymore it's in your stomach haha.  The little one's heart rate is now at 167-168 beats per minute.  We have recently had a girl prediction, what do the rest of you think?  At first I thought definately girl, then a few weeks later boy, now I really don't know.  Sorry I guess my mothers intuition hasn't kicked in yet.  

P.S.  I thank the good Lord for potatoes, they have been my salvation from the nausea and all day sickness.
