Talk about wanting to make sure you are there with your wife for the doctor's appointment. Typically showing up with her for a doctor's appointment is no issue at all, this week however was a little more challenging. To be more specific I had to hop a plane from LAX at 11pm west coast time and fly into ATL, around 6am eastern time. From there the flight to Jackson left ATL at 7:45am and landed in Jackson at 7:50am central time. Then it was as simple as driving home to meet Joanna and then head out to the doctor's office for a 9:15 appointment. It really was not too hard, the hard part was the ride home, just staying awake.
Now some people drink coffee to stay awake, others simple drink a soda for that quick jolt. Well my quick jolt this morning came in a form of hearing the baby's heartbeat. As the doctor asked Joanna how she had been feeling, which is still bad by the way, he then found the heartbeat and promptly said "well there is the root of all your problems". At that moment it seemed as if everything went away, no feeling bad, and no lack of sleep for me. Then Joanna quickly said "he is taking all my energy" I reminded her she still calls the baby a he and she keeps saying well it feels like a he. Not sure if there is any truth to that but I have learned not to argue with a pregnant woman.
