We had our 1st ultrasound today!!! My hubby and mom both went to the apt with me - we were taken right back and the nurse could immediately tell I was a bundle of nerves!! She told me to relax and left while I changed clothes. They did the ultrasound vaginally since I am not very far along. Immediately we saw the most beautiful sight I have ever seen in my entire life :love: There was one beautiful, perfect baby. His/her heart was flickering away just perfectly!! She measured the baby and said he/she is measuring exactly 8 weeks (I am 8 weeks 5 days), but the doctor said that was nothing to worry about - since my cycle varies I probably just ovulated late. The baby is measuring 1.6cm, the yolk sac is measuring 2.0cm and the gestational sac is measuring 5.8cm. The baby's heartbeat was 169bpm - absolutely perfect! The sonographer said everything is right on track and couldn't look better. She printed 7 pictures for us
It was the most wonderful thing I have ever been through in my entire life! Hubby had tears in his eyes, as did my mom. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect appointment
Here are some pictures of my beautiful gift :love: Pictures are a little blurry since I didn't scan them, I just took a picture of a picture and uploaded them.
This is my favorite pic - the sonographer said that his/her little hand was sticking up like he/she was waving!
You can see the baby and the yolk sac in this one.
