So we had our first Ultra sound yesterday and met with the OB and nurse. The baby is growing very well and is looking very healthy, it's measuring at 9 weeks and 3 days, but that might change at the next one. They still didn't give me a defenitive due date yet, they said it's either Sept. 1st or the 6th, we should know more by mid april when we find out the sex and when it's measured again. We also got to hear the heart beat, (when she turned it on and we could hear it, it was soo sweet of Devin, he looked at me and grabbed my arm and got this huge smile on his face, I love how he is soo excited!!!!) It is an extremely strong heart beat at 185/min. They said it's very important to keep it strong like that! My uterus is also looking good, and all in all it was a great appt.
The head is on the right side (it's almost the size of it's whole body) with the body being on the left. Ohhh how exciting!!!

That's the thing about going with an OB (which I did), is they do test after test after test. Neither one of my pregnancies was high risk for anything, but I don't even know how many tests they had done. But I guess it's good to be cautious.
Look at that little chunka!!! So cute! We're so excited for you and Devin to be parents. It's the best!!! And that's too cute of how Devin was when you first heart the heartbeat. Honig was the same way. It's one of those moments you'll never forget.
I had that ultrasound to measure the skin on baby's neck - it's their favorite test in that office! Very accurate in detection, to avoid the worry later with all the false positives that can come with just plain ol' blood tests! (Plus it's another ultrasound o you get to see it again) =)
