Fourth prenatal appointment

I am 13wks1day along today, January 4, 2010! I was very excited for this appointment with the specialist to have another ultrasound because I had been worried of the "normal" discomfort I was experiencing. As you can see the pictures turned out fantastic!! Check out that prominent "Baber" nose!! The doctor said everything looks terrific! I was just so thankful to see it jumping around on the screen that all that I was feeling the weeks before left my mind! The baby started out belly down in the first couple pictures. The nurse jiggled around a bit on my abdomen to try to get the baby to turn so she could see and measure things accurately. Even though I went to the restroom before the exam she asked me to go again to help the baby corporate with what she needed. It worked!!! The baby turned over to its back as well as from left to right! Wow!! Its a good thing I can't feel anything yet!! Heart rate 160 and it is 6.82 cm long!!

The 13wk2day January 6th ob-gyn appointment went very well too!! Heart rate went down to 151 in two days! I haven't gained a pound yet and am still in my regular clothes!! I am still feeling great!! Fatigue has subsided, though I limit myself to 1-2 outings per day. I have been approved to go to the gym to swim, take classes geared toward women that are expecting, walk on the treadmill, use elliptical machine at low impact, and the stationary bike. Can't wait to head there this week!
