Best moment this week: Seeing baby on the ultrasound. The last ultrasound we only saw the gestational sac but this time I was able to see more (see below). I was also able to hear baby's heartbeat; it was 158 bpm. (Thanks Ana for tagging along with me to this special appointment.)
Sleep: I'm having difficulty falling asleep lately, but when I do I sleep really well and have lots of dreams.
Movement: Baby was moving around when we were listening for a heartbeat but I couldn't feel it.
Food cravings: Beef and BBQ; but sometimes I don't have much of an appetite at all so it's hit or miss.
Gender: Unknown
What I miss: Russ; since he's out on the ship he wasn't able to see and hear baby's heartbeat with me today....but I can't wait to tell him all about it.
What I am looking forward to: Telling Russ about the ultrasound.
Milestones: Getting this far into the pregnancy with no morning sickness.
Baby Size: lime
Baby Size: lime
Weekly Wisdom: Trust your body, you know it better than anyone else.

If you're new at looking at sonograms, the arrow in the middle is pointing to baby's head.

AHHH!!! Look at your little bean!!! He's so cute (yes Im calling him a "he" for now). So glad your appointment went well and you can hopefully be reassured now:) Your office might record your ultra sounds for you if you bring a blank disk (ours does) so Russ can see them all when he gets back. Just a thought ;-)
ReplyDeleteAlso I LOVE your pictures hehe.
I love the blog, and being able to hear how everything is going. Love the pics of you and your friends at your different places in pregnancy! You are all beautiful. Such an exciting time. As for your cravings of Beef and BBQ...
ReplyDeleteWhen I was expecting Josiah, I was craving proteins, and a friend told me that I was going to have a boy! Hmmm, maybe you have a little "man" in your future?
