I had my 3rd appointment with the midwives this morning. Since CT couldn't get the time off, I asked my mom if she would like to come with J so they could hear the baby's heartbeat. J had so much fun 'helping' the midwife take my blood pressure and put the gel on the doppler. Baby's heartbeat was 148 bpm and J said it sounded like galloping horses - too cute! We go back in another 4 weeks.
Less than 2 weeks now until the ultrasound! We are leaning more on the side of finding out the gender. CT would really like to find out. I don't have strong feelings one way or another. With J, I was adamant that I wanted to wait until the birth, but this time, I think it might be nice to know at 20 weeks. We could better prepare J for having a sibling - if she knew brother or sister, that might help her visualize things better. She is adamant she is having a baby brother, so if she's right, we can tell her that. If she's wrong, we'd have 4 months to convince her she's getting a sister instead. We have until the 17th to decide for sure whether we want to find out or not.
In other news, mom and I have a meeting this afternoon with our lawyer. My uncle sent us a letter a couple of weeks ago with some options for consideration if we want to settle. All of the options he put forth are completely unreasonable and him not giving one inch. So, not a compromise in the least, just him getting his own way. So, we are going to see what our lawyer suggests at this point. We are certainly not agreeing to any of my uncle's suggestions, but should we come back with a counter offer or just tell my uncle to take his options and shove them and see you in court.
