Well, today's appointment went really well. The ultrasound tech said all of my measurements look good and the baby looks healthy. String Bean was a perfect baby! S/he was laying on their back with their arms by their head and the feet crossed in the air. Just like relaxing on a hammock! When ever the tech needed baby to move s/he would suddenly jump around. What a perfect angel! We got to listen to the heartbeat again and today it was beating at 167 beats per minute. My lunch must have gotten string bean excited :-)
Here are some pics we got to take home today. They are a little blurry, but you can get the general idea.
The top two pics are a profile view of string bean. The bottom left pic is taken from the bottom and showing string bean crossing his/her legs. The bottom right pic shows the baby looking at us.
Here are some additional profile pics. It's still too early to find out the sex (not that we are going to find that out).
These past 2 days have just been so exciting. It's going to be hard to wait another 4 weeks to hear the heart beat again, but we'll just think back to yesterday and today and that will get us through.
We will keep you updated on all things baby,
Joel, Nicole, and String Bean
Looks just like me at that age.
