First Ultrasound at 7 weeks and 3 days

We saw our RE yesterday for our first US and I am happy to report that he says it's a healthy little bean. We were able to see it's spine, head, arm and leg buds and it's strong little heart beat. Hearing the heartbeat for the first time was amazing. This is such a miracle and I am so grateful.

The RE released us back to our OB/GYN and we see her next week. I hope to report good news then too. This is such a scary process. I assume that the worry never ends until after delivery...and then I'm sure it's a whole new worry. :)

I'm praying for you friends...lots and lots of baby dust!

  • Kinohio,

    You know, its weird and maybe TMI...but as the doctor got the heartbeat he was also printing out our US photos and just then it ran out of paper. So, he stopped listening and had my partner hold the US wand while he reloaded the paper. Amidst all of the commotion and laughter, we forgot to ask and he didn't say. He just said that everything looked perfect...that was enough for me. :) I'm sure that my OB will give me a number next Thursday.
