17 week update

Today we had our first Centering baby group with the midwives. It's a really neat concept, essentially you are assigned to a birth cohort, a group of couples all due the same month as you. You all go once a month to group classes with one of the midwives from the practice, with the opportunity to talk to other couples, hear their questions and experiences. During the class each couple also has an exam with the midwife individually.
Today's experience was good, and I'm hoping it's going to be great for us as first time parents. And we got to hear the heartbeat again, which was great. I was actually feeling the baby kick me a bit on my left side during the class, too!
So now we just need to make an appointment for our anatomy scan. Only a week or two left of mystery about baby yostee's gender...

I think that its great you two are taking advantage of all the different ways that you can go about finding the support and answers during your first pregancy. (how hippie of a comment is that, I love it!!)
