Jack's kicks have been strong enough for Mamma to feel for a few weeks. This week, Jack has become extremely active. His punches and kicks have gotten more frequent and much stronger. It's apparent that he's practicing some kung-foo fighting. For the past few days, Mamma has been awakened before 6:00 a.m. to kicking, jumping and general getting-down. This morning, at about 5:30, Jack woke Mamma with some kicking and jabbing. Mamma put Daddy's hand on her belly just in time for Daddy to experience a swift and very strong kick! We're so excited and proud of our boy!

The doctor says Jack looks good!
We saw the doctor for a second ultrasound in his office this week. The ultrasound technician examined Jack rather thoroughly. (She confirmed that Jack is a baby boy.) After reviewing the ultrasound, Dr. Lebder said that Jack is developing nicely. He has a heart with four chambers, a developing brain, stomach, kidneys, etc. Dr. Lebder says that he thinks Jack looks good. We're very pleased and getting excited.
The problem with having an ultrasound is that momma-to-be becomes compelled to buy little baby boy clothes - shoes, sleepers, tiny cardigans and plaid pants. Good thing no more ultrasounds are planned!
