Baby Names!

We have definitely decided on a girl's name! The name we chose has been our number one pick all along. We have loved this name since before we were pregnant. So, I don't see us changing it. 

As for a baby boy, our lists have been made, but we just can't decide. 

Post a comment if you have any suggestions. :) 

Doctor's Visit

I had my doctor's appointment today and found out the results of my blood glucose testing. Everything was great and I do not have gestational diabetes! 

The baby's heartbeat was in the 140's today and sounds as strong as ever. The baby's heartbeat did the same dropping beat like before, but the doctor's are not worried. 

My next appointment will be in three weeks, and then I will start going every two weeks after that. I have also set-up appointments with two different pediatricians to "interview" them and see if they will be a good fit for our family. 

I am getting excited for the baby to arrive. I have had a dream that the baby was a boy early on in my pregnancy, but have recently been dreaming that the baby is a girl. We will see very soon! 

Fetal Echocardiogram

Below are pictures from our most recent ultrasound on 

Friday, February 20th. 

Above is a picture of the front view of the baby's face. 

Here is Baby Kuhlman's face profile. 

On Friday, February 20th at 10:30am I had to go to Royal Oak Beaumont to have a Fetal Echocardiogram. The reason I had to go for the Echo was because after my glucose testing on Wednesday the baby's heartbeat was dropping a beat after every 4th beat. My doctor told me that this is a common occurrence with baby's in-utero. However, if I would feel better, she would send me for the ultrasound. I decided to have the ultrasound on Friday morning. 

My mom went with me to the hospital and the visit was about an hour long. They checked everything. I got to see all the chambers of the heart, the arteries, the valves, and the blood flow. We even got to hear the heartbeat and the blood flowing through the heart. All the structures looked great and everything sounded wonderful. The tech couldn't find anything wrong. The doctor came in and checked the baby out, too. He couldn't find anything either. He talked to me for a while and told me what my OBGYN had told me ... not to worry and that it is common. 

The technician measured all the other structures, too, and said that the baby is growing perfectly and that everything looks great! The baby is 2 pounds 9 ounces and growing.
