I've been feeling bad for missing a prenatal appointment with Kate this week—today was the first one that I've missed in either pregnancy due to being at the AERA conference in New York. So, of course, something had to be weird. For some reason the baby's heart rate was overly high and was measuring unusually small, so Kate was off (again!) for an unexpected ultrasound. Long story short, the numbers were an anomaly, everything is just fine, and as a bonus, we found out that our little koala is going to be a baby girl!
