Yesterday I had my 1st ultrasound and boy did it sure make reality set in, as if the morning sickness wasn't enough! I can't believe we are having another baby! Baby is measuring just perfect at 9 weeks and has a strong heart beat of 173! Apparently from week 8 to 9 there's a lot of changes with baby like the hands and feet don't look like paddles anymore, and the fingers and toes are forming. The embryonic tail disappears so it looks more like a baby! The ultrasound picture I will post isn't that great of a picture, you could see more clearly on the screen. Ultrasound tech Becky said it looks like the babys back is facing us and the head is on the right, and you can see it tiny arms on the sides. It was so neat watching baby move around and seeing the heartbeat flicker on the screen. My blood pressure was 98/56 at my checkup. I had checked it a couple days before and thought it wasn't right but the doctor said it's completely normal for being pregnant.
My next appointment is right before Thanksgiving so I'll keep everyone posted!
Here's the picture from yesterday!
