Well, first let me say that everything with both Baby Perkins and I are fine. But Baby Perkins thought it would be funny to scare both mommy and daddy. Had a doctor's appointment with my new doctor (who is great) and when they were doing the examination everything was going fine until they couldn't hear a heartbeat. Then I remembered what day it is…may God Bless America (say a prayer for the families and friend of the 9/11 victims). Well, Dr. Henrik called his good friend and got me an ultrasound appointment to make sure that everything is okay. (Just to let you know how great of a doctor he was, he knew I was upset and didn’t want me taking the T-bane or tram so if offered to get me a cab and pay for it, however I told him that walking would do me some good). So I called Troy and he met me at the gyno’s office. We both waited very nervously for the ultrasound. Baby Perkins was just hiding. So finally we got to see our little one and also got to see that his/her heart was beating just fine. They determined that I was in my 12 or 13 week (no change there). Still could not see if it was a boy or girl, but he/she was sure kicking up a storm and then even waved at us. I will have to say that it was one of the greatest experiences of my life!!! We also saw the nose, stomach and bladder. The doctor said that everything look great!!! So first milestone accomplished…the first picture of our little one!!!
