14 week ultrasound

Today I had an ultrasound. I am supposed to be 13 weeks, but the baby measured 14, so my due date is a day before Jerry's Birthday.

Finally, this feels real. The baby was cute: chubby, round tummy, legs up in the air, arms moving all around. He/she was very active, moving the whole time, stretching his head and neck, twisting, kicking her legs. The heartbeat was good and strong at 156 bpm. :) The stomach was black which means he has been swallowing fluid (which is good). The nasal bone was long and the back of the neck were thin... two indicators that she probably doesn't have Down syndrome. Everything looks good!

Evan sat quietly and watched everything. He's so sweet. Hope I have another one like him.
