gummy bear

that is what my child currenty looks like. we had a great dr's appt. this morning. Ben was looking at the posters on the wall of the developing baby and was like OMG this is what the baby will look like in like 3.5 weeks?! while small the baby will look like a little human at that point with all its organs, hands, feet, toes, eyes...everything.

hb was great, 175, so up from last week.

next appt. is next thursday morning. Ben will be out of town, so I may ask MIL if she wants to go with me so she can see the baby:) I think she would really like that especially since she doesn't have any daughters and won't ever get to experience an u/s with them.

  • Aw, Leafy will love that!

    She will LOVE it! I let my MIL come once with L, my bff come with L, and my Grandmother come with C. 

     

    One of the coolest things I have ever seen was at the Bodyworks Exhibit a few years ago. They had a real fetus every week for the 40 weeks, and then a woman with a baby in her stomach. Now, once you got over the fact that  you were looking at real babies, it was fascinating to see how much a 4 week old fetus looks like a normal human. It is just crazy.

     

    Glad your appt. went well!!

  • AWE!  I think MIL would love that too!  YAY

  • That's such good news! I'm sure MIL will love that. :)
  • I'll have to undress from the waist down in front of her but i'm sure she can handle that.

  • Yeh, they let me cover up first too
  • Everytime this post comes to the top I get the gummy bear song in my head... it's a song the kids are OBSESSED WITH this summer and we got to listen it to multiple times a day.  Either on youtube or them singing it.

  • Everyone that I've brought with me has loved it! She will love being able to experience it with you!

  • Glad your appointment went well. Now I feel bad because I never took anyone other than J to an appointment with me. My mom probably would have loved it, but we're private with this kind of stuff. I didn't want anyone else in delivery room either. But since you would be going alone, I definitely would take someone and your MIL will love it!

    When I went for my 1st ultrasound last week they were able to do an abdominal ultrasound, not transvaginal... so no naked time!  At the time I was 10 weeks (but then they said the baby was only measuring 9 weeks so changed by due date 8 days)   So you might be ok on that front!

  • That would be so nice of you to ask her. Yay for gummy bears. I have one of those pictures too. How many more weeks do you get to go to RE?

    @klm42404 I stay with them until the end of my first trimester. they'll do the genetic screening and then send me over to the OB.

    but the OB wants to see me now. so I go and see their nurse next tuesday and then the following thursday I'll see my midwife.

    so the amount of appt.'s I have coming up is insane. I'm very thankful that all my appts with the RE have been at 7:30 and so i've actually been getting to work early on those days not late!

  • That's great that you get to see them until then. My insurance stopped covering them at 8 weeks. I.missed seeing her. ;)

    They'll also ask about pain management. I think I said yea to the epidural before she even finished the question.

     

  • Are you going to find out the gender?
  • Are you going to find out the gender?

    yep! Ben wants to know ASAP.

    I would love to be suprised though:( Ben said if we have a boy this time around then next time we can wait to find out. haha

    He Miiiiiiiiiiiight change his mind. N was all about finding out and I wanted to be surprised. So I had in my mind that we'd find out. He then randomly changed his mind and threw me for a loop.

    Or the baby might just tell you. When we saw T, there was no denying that he had a little pe-pe. He was spread eagle, showing it off for all of the world to see.
