baby games

reading another blog, I found this site: www.expectnet.com

It lets you create a game that keeps track of everyone's guess as to when your baby will be born and weight and length and all that. I set one up because I thought it would be fun! The name of the game is bobandmaggiebaby.

So I read the comment on my last post, and at first I thought "That's cute, but I want nothing to do with it." Then I went to the site and scrolled down to around our date (oct 8) and started reading some of the other sites. Apparently I'm the only person who isn't worried about miscarriage. I was happy to see that most everyone had the same symptoms as I did, most worse than I had. I guess it's just nice to know that I'm not the only one going through all this stuff. So, for the moment, I'll let my name and due date stay there.

I've been probed!!!

We had our first ultrasound today, and here's the picture. It was an internal ultrasound, which I must say is probably much more uncomfortable than an external one! But we got to see the baby, which is positioned in the top corner and upside down (yep, our baby is a bat!). We also got to hear the heartbeat for a few seconds. It's a good thing it wasn't longer because it almost made me cry. We got two pictures, but the scanner is being difficult so I could only scan one. I don't know if you can tell but it is labelled head and body. Maybe I'll blow it up a little and put another one on here later. Since my last visit I lost 5 pounds! The doctor said not to worry though, that was normal during the first trimester and that I will gain it all back and then some. Overall, everything checked out ok! One more thing, they changed our due date to October 8th. Posted by Picasa
