Dancing Baby

Well, there she is. Or he. Measuring at 10w3d exactly, heartbeat looking nice and strong. And she was having her own little dance party down there. So active. It was actually cooler than the first heartbeat, because she LOOKS like a baby now. She was waving and we could see where the eyes, nose, mouth, ears and all were. Amazing!!

The OB was cool, she was just as cheesy as we were, waving at the screen with us, LOL. Alas, it's the last glimpse until 20 weeks since we have decided against screening. Sad :( Oh! I told her about some of my rather early symptoms, the round ligament pain and sciatic pain, and she said, "Well, it's going to be a long pregnancy then." LOL. I think my body figures if I only get to do this once it might as well throw the book at me. Whatever, I like waddling.

Going back on the Zo.loft tomorrow, which I am hoping gets my ass back off the couch and back into gear. I have baby blankets to make! And I REALLY need to get a better scale...I am really going to have to monitor my weight it looks like.

But all in all it went well, and since we only go once a month now I'd better settle in and try to relax a bit, LOL.

So here's to my little dancing Cricket and the continuation of Vomit Fest 2010!!! Cheers!

  7. Wow! It's amazing to see how active and big the baby is at 10 weeks! Much different from 6 weeks. I can't believe you won't get another one for 10 weeks.

    I hope you start feeling better!

  9. Great pic! Wouldn't it be nice if we could watch our babies move all the time? I hope the Zoloft helps!

  10. AWWW!!! We haven't seen our baby since 7w4d which was as DH called it "a bunch of pixels on the screen". haha. So our 20 week screen is going to be awesome.

    Try not to worry too much about your weight - my doctor told me to stay away from the scale at home because if they see my weight as a problem (too much or not enough) then they'll step in but they don't want to restrict eating either. As long as you're eating healthy all should be well!
