I am now 12 weeks and 3 days along. Baby is now approximately 7.5cm and the fetal heartbeat is at 165bpm. Strong and healthy! Yesterday was amazing! The ultrasound had such high resolution that we could see the entire heart expanding and contracting … way cooler than just a blip on a screen. Baby was moving and kicking and had its hands up by its face and ankles crossed most of the time.
The tech took the time so show us everything she could … as she was waiting for baby to cooperate so she could get the image she needed. So Sean asked if the tech saw a third leg (haha!). So with that she searched and searched and could not find the third leg Sean was hoping for. The MD and the tech weren’t willing to call it for sure, but they both were inclined to bet on a girl. We should know for sure next month. Sean texted me this morning: “Our baby is already cute. I need to go rifle shopping.” Haha! Love it!
I am still feeling good; the majority of the nausea has stopped. I am still just tired all the time! I still haven’t gained any weight yet (phfew!), but my waist is slowly vanishing. I have another doctor’s appointment next Wednesday with my OB and we’ll see what she says then.
