John came for the ultrasound which was very fun, and also very quick. We could see our little babe moving around and I could actually see the limbs. At first the technician actually was like "no I don't think so" but then she did see them. I guess she was a bit surprised because I ended up measuring 10 weeks and 2 days versus the 9 weeks 3 days that they had assumed. I was kind of expecting to measure more advanced because based on my ovulation kit and how quickly I got a positive pregnancy test, I most likely ovulated on day 12 of my cycle (as opposed to day 14 that is the "average") and it's possible the egg implanted earlier rather than later. So that was exciting. In other good news my doctor is a really nice woman and was very attentive and open to making sure she answered any questions I had. She also made me feel better about my growing midsection and said that she definitely could feel that my uterus was very expanded, so I was glad to know that it was more than just me making my pants tighter. It was great to see the baby now, it makes all this nausea & vomiting much more positive.
Yay!!! I was waiting for this update! What's your due date? Still 9/20?

ReplyDeleteThe doctor changed my due date to 9/15 based on the ultrasound, but it's all in the same ballpark.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome to see! Congrats.
