Yesterday was the first ultrasound and it was so much fun:)
It amazed me to see how active the baby was! He was moving and bouncing around all over the place! At one point he put his feet up against the edge of his bubble and pushed off, we could see his little knees bend and there he went. I didn't know they moved so much so early.. I can't wait til I can feel it! (remind me of this at eight months, hehe)
You can check out the pics we brought home here: Ultrasound Pics (http://comp.uark.edu/~sgardne/US.11.11.04.jpg)
One profile, one with the face tilted towards us, and one of the butt end and a leg kicking out:)
I say 'he' but it's too early to tell yet - we could see arms and legs and the face, but not that. I had the u/s to check on my dates, because my uterus is feeling so big, but it turns out it's because of a fibroid on the top of my uterus. And the baby is measuring big - one measurement said 11wks6ds, the other said 12wks1d, and we thought I was eleven weeks... but she didn't change my due date, which she calculates as June 1st. I'm glad of that.
Anyways it was supercool:)
