4 month check up

Yesterday was my 4 month pre-natal check up.  Pretty straight forward appointment to check my health (and therefore baby's health).  This was the first time that they used the doppler to listen to the baby's heartbeat though.  Since we weren't sure of the position (other than that the baby is still sitting pretty low in my abdomen) it took a minute to find the heartbeat.  In the process of locating the heartbeat, we heard no less than 3 kicks straight to the doppler "microphone".  It was pretty entertaining.  The baby has been consistently pretty active on each of our ultrasounds so I knew it was pretty active, but to have it so obvious externally was fun.

Anyhow the heartbeat was 156.  Anyone want to guess the gender based on that old wives tale? ;)  We should know for sure in a little over a week!
