Almost 9 Weeks!

I had another sonogram today and we found out that the baby is 1in. long, the heart rate is 175 and boy is this baby a mover!. I'm still measuring 4 days early and I've lost 4lbs. It was so funny because the sonographer said she always thinks that the babies look like gummy bears at this stage and they kinda do.

We Got to Hear the Heartbeat!

Today was my first sonogram and we got to hear the heartbeat! It was so exciting because I figured we would only get to see the flutter of the heart. She said I was measuring at 7wk 2day and by my due date (Feb. 3) I am only 6wk 5 day so it looks like my estimated due date of Jan. 30 is right on target. I can't wait to see the changes in the sonogram since I get to go every 2 weeks!

5 weeks today!

I am 5 weeks today! On Friday (6/1/12) I went to the doctor for a sonogram but they decided not to do one yet since I was only a couple days shy of 5wks. I did have blood work, an exam and found out that my HCG level went from 98 on 5/24 to 1,051 on 5/29. I go back on June 15th for a sonogram and will keep doing sonograms until I am off the progesterone which is at 12 weeks.
At 5 weeks Baby Riddle is the size of a sesame seed and looks like a little tadpole. No cravings or nausea yet (fingers crossed no morning sickness) but I do have some tenderness and, if you can imagine me going to the bathroom even more, an increase in urination.
