The "money" shot!
Everything went great! We are so happy. All measurements seemed to be good. I did have a moment where I was a little worried because the ultrasound tech was taking a long time looking at the heart, but then she said he was very active, and wouldn't stay still long enough for a good measurement. *whew*
I go back in 3 weeks for another ultrasound. One of the proteins in my blood came back a little low at 12 weeks, and it can indicate a risk of low birth rate and pre-eclampsia. I had the same low protein with C, and I went for ultrasounds every 2 weeks with him until 32 weeks (for this and other reasons.) But the doctor said that now they understand what might cause pre-eclampsia better, so this next ultrasound should answer those questions, and then I will only have to go once a month for ultrasounds.
I must really be showing now, I had a little girl on Friday ask me why my belly was getting so big. I love little kids, they are so honest. I had a little boy tell me I looked like Santa Clause when I was pregnant with C.
Not the best angle, but look at that belly!
Yay!!! CONGRATULATIONS! I'm so excited for you all! And you look great!
