First Ultrasound - 9weeks


Here you go everyone, our first ultrasound, which will inaugurate our blog.  I (Erin) have been meaning to set this up, and finally something worth sharing.

We will be 10 weeks along tomorrow, with a due date of June 17, 2009.  The ultrasound put the baby at 9 weeks and 1 day, but our doctor said it wasn't enough difference to change the due date.

If you look closely at the smudge, I mean ultrasound, you will see an upside down tiny baby.  Big head at the bottom, tiny arm buds just above that, and slight little leg buds even further up.

I think Donald will agree with me that seeing something in there kind of made this all feel a bit more real.  I have been experiencing a few body changes, but nothing Donald can really notice.  Now we got to see for sure that there is a baby on the way.

All of our test results came back negative.  Good thing.  Blood pressure is a little high.  Hopefully it stays where its at an doesn't go any higher.  Haven't had much morning sickness, maybe 2 or 3 days tops.  Hungry all the time.


The doctor's appointment went much better than the first one.  We actually met with a doctor, and she willingly answered our questions.  We, meaning I,  have chosen to stay with this doctor, and the Facey group, even though I was so upset at not being able to change.  It seems we will mostly get what we want out of a hospital delivery, with a few compromises.
