Well, we just got back from the u/s. I was so nervous that I was totally shaking and I couldn't calm down! I was so terrified of not finding anything like last time. Anyway, I didn't even want to look at the machine, but as soon as the dr started the u/s, he said, "Beautiful..." and I immediately felt better. We saw the little baby (it looks kind of like a snowman with a big round head and round abdomen!) AND we saw the little heart beating away!!! It was so amazing. It even moved for us! The dr was so reassuring and kept saying how happy he was for us and how everything is going to be just fine. I could have stayed in there for hours just looking at it! We go back in 4 weeks and he said we will really see more then, like the arms and legs an everything. Of course, that gives me more to worry about but I feel ever so much better since we never even made it this far last time. I feel like it all might be okay now! Sorry I am rambling but I am so happy!!!! Thanks for all you do girls...I love this board :)

Ramble away hon - you deserve it! I'm so glad that the doc let you know verbally how things were so soon. My techs didn't say anything for a while and it scared the crap out of me! They're so cute when they're so little; just like a little blob with a beat. But the most precious too! Congrats on a wonderful appt.

Wow, Sounds like you had a great u/s! I am so happy for you. You should really be able to see a lot at your 12 wk u/s. I go for my 12 appt. on Thurs. but no u/s. They will just check the baby's hb with a doppler. I am very nervous-I know how you felt. Glad everything went so well.

OMG Elizabeth!!! Yayyy!!!!! That is so great!!!! I remember that same feeling of terror turning into pure joy at my first US with this one! It's like your whole body just goes limp once that little flicker shows up on the screen! And let me just tell you, at the next US you're going to not just see a snowman, but a real-life baby! They change so much during those weeks and you'll be amazed to see those little arms moving and legs kicking. It's so awesome! Just to show you the difference (and to get you even more excited for your next US!!!!) I'm attaching pics from a couple of my USs...the first one is at 8wks 4days and the next 2 are from around 12wks. I'm so happy for you, girl....you're going to be a Mommy!!!!!


And about this board, we're just as happy to have you as you're happy to be here! :)

Thanks guys! Ya'll are so sweet!!

Steph: Thank you sooooooo much for attaching your u/s pictures for me to see. That was so sweet of you!! I loved looking at them. Now I can't wait for the next one so I can(hopefully) see way more detail like yours at 12 weeks instead of just a little snowman!!! :)
