'Hey, I'm still in here!'

You hear that? That muffled yell? I hear it. Oh, boy, do I hear it.
It's the sound of snubbed Child #2 giving me a big ol' dressing-down for neglecting to blog about him (I still think it's a boy) or to blog about Anni's pregnancy.
Oh, there he goes again:
"Hey, Pops, I get it, you didn't want to start another blog dedicated to me. But how about you at least give me a little pub on the big sis' blog? I'm starting to feel like the third or fourth child, not the second!"
OK, OK, message received, so here's an update on what's going on:
Anni's 5 months pregnant, 20 weeks to be exact. We know this because she saw her baby doc today for her monthly check-up. (The great doctor has spent more than three decades in the profession, delivered hundreds or thousands of children, dedicated his career to obstetrics, and then I go and slight him with the title "baby doc.")
But back to Anni. Everything is going smoothly. Anni's healthy and doing well, save for the nagging sciatic nerve. She's still sleeping through the night (I don't remember when the multiple pit stops per night started when she was pregnant with Elise, but I've got to think she's coming up on that soon.)
The doctor found Child #2's heartbeat right away, and it was pumping at a healthy 136 beats a minute. So according to myth, that means it's a boy. Yeah, because old wives' tales are always accurate...
We didn't have such quick luck finding the heartbeat at last month's visit. I went along for that visit, and we brought Elise with so that Anni's doctor could see her. Well, the doc tried to locate the baby's heart beat with the fetal doppler (I think it's really called that), but it was silent.
"Let's go try the ultrasound," the doctor said.
That was a surprise, because the clinic previously did not have an ultrasound machine, forcing Anni to drive to another clinic for any ultrasound she needed.
Not only was it a surprise, but it also meant "field trip!" for Elise. So we all wandered down the hall to another room with an ultrasound machine. The doc then found Child #2's heartbeat with little problem.
Meantime, Child #1 -- Elise -- was fascinated by the "belly jelly" used with an ultrasound wand.
"What's that?" Elise asked.
Anni told her it was jelly for the ultrasound.
"Can I eat it?" Elise asked.
Uhm, no.
