First Ultrasound At 9 Weeks 1 Day
Posted: 05-04-06 14:22pm

Hey ladies, just giving an update. I went to the doctor's office this afternoon and I had my first ultrasound! It was so unreal! I started to cry once I saw the little arms and leg start to move about. My baby was moving so much, baby would hardly sit still! We heard the heartbeat and it was an astonishing 163 bpm. And my doc estimated my due date at 12-6-06 by lmp and the ultrasound tech estimated the same date by the size of the fetus so baby is right on track with development! I'm so excited I can hardly keep my eyes off the picture they printed.

Yeah I definately wanna know what the sex is ! The ultrasound tech said that at my next ultrsound, they should be able to tell what the sex is. I'm having my next one in june at about my 15th week. She was confident that we'll know then by judging the size of the baby now. Seeing my baby for the first time was so exciting! Baby was only about 1 and 1/4 long but it was so much like human! The head, legs, and arms were so definately there and baby was moving them around so much it was unreal. I feel so much more "pregnant" now that I have seen for fact that my little peanut is really there and is moving about.

Thats exactly what we called are baby at our first ultrasound was a peanut. It looks so weird. My last ultrasound at 16 weeks the baby was really kicking and moving all over but some of the pictures that we got the babys face kind of looks a little alien! I'm going back next week at 18 weeks to find out sex yeah!
