Wednesday we finally went to our very anticipated Dr. appt. We hadn't been for almost 5 weeks and we were ready to see how much our little one had grown. And WOW! had baby O grown. Measuring in at 6.5 cm (just over 2.5 in) and with a heart rate of 167 bpm, our baby looks like...well... a baby!! And, an active baby at that. Baby O was moving all over the place and even turning flips. Who knows, maybe he/she will be a gymnast like his/her mom (many many MANY years ago)!...
It's so amazing the technology doctors have these days. It's unbelievable that just by looking at the ultrasounds the doctors and nurses can determine the baby's bladder, and other intestines. We also got to hear the heartbeat using a Doppler (a special listening devise). Very cool!
These ultrasound photos were taken at 12 1/2 weeks! I love the close up of the arm and hand!!
I'm going to have the cutest lil niece/nephew. :)
