Friday July 6 we had our first ultrasound. The baby was measuring 5mm, which put me at 7W1D, and a due date of 2/29/07 -which is right where I figured it should be. We got to see the baby (and by baby I mean a teeny round speck) and the yolk sac. And, as a bonus, we got to see and to hear the heartbeat - 120bpm, which the tech Pippa said was perfect. It was beyond cool to see and to hear the little one!
Word has been spreading, so most friends and family are now in the know. We got to tell my family in person at the big reunion in Yellowstone on July 12th. We took one of the photos of the baby from the ultrasound and made a copy and framed it to give to my parents and to my grandparents. I think everyone was very excited for us!
So far the main symptoms have been sore breasts (but still no increase in their size, dangit!), lots of nausea (but luckily still no vomiting), beyond ridiculous bloat, and some tiredness. But I know it can be much worse, so I'm trying to count my lucky stars so far!
Pics of the BFP and some belly shots are on their way, once I get brave enough to show off my bloat to the world, that is. : )
