Yay, back from my ultrasound, and it went so well! Doctor was very nice, and answered all our questions. He did the ultrasound and we got to hear the heartbeat (H teared up - it's finally real to him!), and see the baby. Baby was in a weird position at the top of my uterus, so pictures are not great. Actually, I thought it looked more like a turtle than a human baby, but hopefully that will change soon. ![]()
Best part is the baby was measuring at 12w2d instead of 11w1d, which I had expected to some extent because I have short cycles, but this was even more than I'd hoped. Doctor changed my due date to 11/22 (from 11/30).
Thanks for reading, and here's a cookie!


Re: Baby Related AW
I was so amazed when i heard the heartbeat. Sadly, Greg couldn't make it he ended up having to work.
yay! for being a week ahead of schedule. Hopefully you will have had baby by Turkey day or will be late and not miss it. (This is my favorite holiday, so I am hoping I don't miss it)
Yay!! How exciting to hear the heartbeat!!
You know, November 20th is an absolutely wonderful birthday....just sayin'
Whooohooo I've been waiting for a baby post!
Your little one will now be turtle :-)
Hee hee, thanks ladies!
Xtine, so sorry Greg had to miss it. We had to reschedule this one twice so H could be there, and when I scheduled my next appt today, he was putting it in his calendar. I was like, don't you want to save your energy for the times we'll actually get to see the baby?
Oh, and I love Thanksgiving as well! I've 'claimed' it for our family (that's what we do) and hosted the past two years, and my BIL made a joke about me really really claiming the holiday, what with the future birthdays as well. There's no way in hell I'll host this year, though.
Jessie, I think Turtle is going to stick!
Yay, thanks for sharing.
I
turtles. Here's a pic of one from our HM.
Oh, thanks. I would have reschedule but it was super last minute that he had to work and i schedule it that day because I had off from work. Not sure if he will be able to go to my next because this stupid restraurant that is supoose to be opening keeps moving dates and the new date is 2 day before my appointment.
I know I usually host as well and love to. I don't know what I will be doing this year. If I do I will gladly be accepting the help unlike last year when I did it ALL myself.
Yay turtle! I like these baby updates!
I seriously finished reading your post and started looking for the "like" button. Then remembered I'm on TN, not FB.
I'm getting all mushy just reading these. So exciting!! And it only gets better :-) Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!
