Ultrasound

Today was our first ultrasound! The technician said that all the measurements are normal, and that everything looked really really good. The heartbeat was very neat to see and hear. The baby's heartbeat was 180 BPM, and the amniotic fluid looked clear. They said the umbilical chord was in the correct place.
There's only ONE, so no twins! PHEW! (Wipe of the brow)...ha ha. I think twins would be a bit fun, but probably a lot of work. Ben would've had a stroke if it was twins.
Our little one was moving all over the place, waving his/her arms. I seem to think that it was trying to "raise the roof." HA HA. I was not expecting as much movement as there was. It was just dancing around in my stomach. Its amazing that you can't feel all that movement when it is moving so much, but then again it is still so small.
The ultrasound is by far the funnest pregnancy thing so far. It was so exciting, and I could tell that Ben was excited, too.
My mom is in town visiting, and she went as well. She loved it. It was her first time to see an ultrasound. They did not do them back when she was pregnant. Not to mention that she got her first glimpse of her grandchild.
We have an appointment on August 18th to find out the sex of the baby, and to re-measure everything. Seven more weeks to go before we get to know if we're having a baby boy or a baby girl.
