Doctor's Appointment

Our appointment went very well this morning. Baby is fantastic and having lots of fun swimming around in my tummy! Baby's heartrate at 6 weeks was 129bpm, leading me to believe Baby was a boy. BUT at 10 weeks 6 days, Baby's heartrate was a whopping 167bpm!!!! When the US technician said, "Alright, the heartrate is...167." I said "HOLY CRAP!!!" What a jump! I've never heard of a boy's heartrate being in the 160's! So now I'm having second thoughts on the gender. Maybe I am having a girl!! And speaking of gender, my doctor told me that we would do the gender US in 8 weeks! YAY! At my next appointment in 4 weeks, I won't have an ultrasound.....that's going to be weird because I've always had an ultrasound at my appointments! I guess I'm just a regular old pregnant lady now, no special IF treatments like regular ultrasounds!

So without further ado, here is the cutest little alien you have ever seen:



OH and Baby is measuring 11 weeks 1 day....that's GREAT!



I mean, seriously, isn't he/she CUTE!?!?! I think so. We also got a DVD of the ultrasound. It's pretty cool, seeing the baby moving around. You can even see one of his/her arms and a foot kicking! BUT I can't figure out how to save the video to my computer to be able to upload it. So as soon as I figure it out, I'll post it! I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow! Here's to the last two weeks of my first trimester! WOO HOO!
