Ultrasound Day!
Today we had our first ultrasound and it was absolutely amazing. It's comforting to know that there really is this tiny baby in there and I'm not just puking and getting fat for no reason. Everything about the baby is perfect...one huge head, two tiny arm buds with webbed fingers and two tiny leg buds with webbed toes, a big fat umbilical cord attached in just the right place, and a lovely heart beating at a glorious 171 beats per minute. I loved hearing the little heart just beating away...I could've listened to that sound forever. Baby Frueh is about the same size and shape as a kidney bean at 8 weeks and 4 days old. Eric's first reaction to the little blob on the screen was that a baby frog is growing inside me...but he was so excited to see him/her, even if he/she is shaped like a frog! The nurse said that everything looked perfect and she gave us a measured due date of July 31st.
