Today we went to the Dr. for our 13 week appointment! We were able to hear the baby's heartbeat again! This was the first time that they were able to catch the heartbeat over my belly. The baby's heart rate is 152 and is continuing to beat strong. Due to spotting early in the pregnancy, we had another ultrasound. Jason and I were both amazing at how much our little sweet pea had grown! He/she is already 7 cm long and about the size of peach! We were able to see the head, belly, spine, and a hand and foot. He/she even did a little jump on the screen as we watched. We will visit the Dr. again in 4 weeks for our regular checkup and then two weeks later we will get find out the sex of our sweet pea! I think I'm leaning towards a boy, but I'm sure why! Most people seem to be guessing that it's a girl. The suspense is killing us, but it will be well worth the wait!
In this picture the baby is facing down with his/her head on the right. The line that you can see down the back is the baby's spine. The little tiny dots on the bottom left are parts of the baby's feet! He/she is about the length of the palm of your hand.
