Wiggle Worm

Yesterday morning was our 1st ultra sound with the new doctor... MY MY HOW THE BABY HAS GROWN!!! We couldn't believe our eyes when that little one popped on the screen. We were able to bring a dvd with us this time so not only did we get a couple of pictures the actual ultra sound was recorded... It's was pretty amazing to see the baby fully formed into a baby and moving all over the place... The tech lady asked us if we wanted to know the sex if she was able to tell and of course we said YES but the little one was too active... She had a hard time getting clear still pictures because the baby was moving so much... Watching it move around was a lot of fun it kept putting its right arm up to its head almost like it was scratching or fixing its hair and then the mouth kept making sucking movements... We were also able to hear the heart beat... Up to this point we have only been able to see it beat but hearing it was pretty cool 143 bpm... The tech kept saying what a cute baby over and over which Daniel and I thought was funny because to us although we think what we saw was amazing we weren't sure how she could see cute through that black and white picture.. Guess that's why she is the expert and I'm sure she is right it will be cute... She reported that everything looked good and that the baby was measuring right to date so we were very pleased although we were disappointed that we couldn't find out if it was a boy or girl we are definitely thankful that everything is looking good and healthy... Still waiting for the second trimester bliss that everyone has told me about to kick in though.. I still haven't been able to sleep through the night without getting up and going to the bathroom no joke a good 6 times a night and I have had a lot of sinus pressure and congestion which is no fun drug less... I'm told all the time this to shall pass so I'm still waiting as patient as I can... For now we have a check-up appointment scheduled for Feb. 17th and then at that time they will hopefully give us the date for our next ultra sound lets just hope by then little wiggle worm slows down some so that we can see what it is... Daniel and I are very anxious to know what it is we've got lots to do and we want to buy everything we see and are having to hold back which is no fun WE WANT TO SHOP!!
