We had our first appt today! Sighhhhhhh! I'm pregnant! I saw the baby and it's little heartbeat with my own eyes! I feel so relieved. Our baby looks perfect and is measuring at 20.5 mm. 2.5 mm longer than Katie's =) Our baby is bigger than yours! But I was a much bigger baby than Katie and I'm much taller than her too. Here is our baby! The head is on the bottom.
We scheduled our next 4 appointments and also our NT scan in 4 weeks. We have to cancel the NT scan though because our insurance doesn't cover it and it is $405! If we pay for it upfront that day, it'd be $265 but that's still too steep for us.
How Big Is Baby?
Your baby is growing like mad, putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Though you can't feel it yet, baby is moving those little arms, legs and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy.
How Big Am I?
I really really like my OB. He is very sweet and attentive. I never once felt rushed or like he thought my questions were stupid. My sister used to work with him so she referred me and I'm very happy about that. He seems to really enjoy his job. I'm thrilled that he didn't mention my weight - I've gained way more than I should in the 1st trimester between eating badly and Jimmy banning me from working out until we saw the doctor (which he cleared me to do anything I was doing pre-pregnancy). So, I am back to the gym tomorrow morning for my beloved classes. And I went grocery shopping today and didn't buy any junk. My goal is to not gain anymore than 25 lbs so I have to get serious and eat healthfully for my baby.
I love you soo much Baby Bean. Mommy and Daddy can't stop smiling and we can't wait to meet you. See you in 32 weeks!
