Ultrasound at 12 weeks, 2 days...

We had a very important ultrasound today! Since I am of "advanced" years and have had problems with a previous pregnancy, I have been to see a perinatalist to make sure everything looks good at this point. And, it does! Baby is uncooperative, moving around like a little maniac at times, and growing like a weed! The baby has grown from 33 mm to 78 mm in about 2 weeks!


This looks like a view of the back, but it's difficult to tell. The sonographer just printed the photos for us. I think that is a little ear up at the top of the head on the top right.

I'm pretty sure this is a side view. There appears to be a little nose and what might be a foot, leg, or knee at the top left. Mostly, you see a big ole belly and head. ;)

10 Week Ultrasound Photo

My blurry 10 week ultrasound photo. The baby has gone from 14 mm to 33 mm in about 2.5 weeks. It was dancing like crazy so it made it difficult for my doctor to get a good shot. I'm glad to see it moving around! You can click the photo to see a larger one. The head is on the left and that may be a little arm at the bottom, but it's too difficult to tell.

To my family in other places: First, I love you all! Second, the test results for my blood sugar came out OK. I will have to be careful about eating certain foods, but things look good for now. I'll be tested again at 24 weeks.
