Healthy Heart Beat!


Hey Guys! Well....Michael and I went to the doctor (friday 2/6/09) and had our 2nd ultra sound!!! First the doctor gave me an update on my health which I forget about because all I think about is the baby's health. So, he was like you are in perfect health! ( : My blood came back with great results, my iron was perfect along with everything else. Also, my annual women's exam came back great! So I am healthy all around. Good to know. I am 14 weeks and 2 days today. Our baby has grown so much! The baby measurs about the size of my palm maybe a tad bigger. The sex organs are developed but so very small to make any diagnosis. So the doctor did an ultra sound just to check up on the baby's growth and next appt is March 9th and I will be over 18 weeks and he will try to determine male or female. It is best for the doctor to wait till he is 100% sure so we don't go out and buy a bunch of blue stuff and it turns out to be a girl! ( : So he will wait till 18 weeks and try to determine the sex of the baby. Below and attached is an updated picture of our baby ( : Compared to the first one he/she has grown SO MUCH it's amazing. The baby is moving around and we saw the heartbeat and it was just pumping away. The doctor even could see the aorta (which is the major part of the heart). We got to see 2 arms and 2 legs (relief) and even the fingers!!!!! It was very neat. God is amazing and I am totally amazed at his blessings he has given Michael and I with this miracle growing inside me. Please keep praying for the health of the baby. We love all of you! God Bless.
