Opps! JULY 2nd

So I went to the doctor a few weeks ago, and the Doctor couldn't hear a heart beat... he seemed a little worried so, he told me that he wanted to do a quick ultrasound and see if the baby's heart was beating just to make sure that everything was OK. So, they did the ultrasound and everything was fine. But the baby was too small to be 13.5 wks... SURPRISE... they told me that I was only 8.5 wks along instead. What a bummer that was. To find out that our baby shrunk from what I thought was the size of a peach to a walnut was disappointing. But, what can you do right?!? Well our baby's due date is now July 2nd... unless they change it again. The doctor said that they do that sometimes and they are just incorrect on dates and not to be worried. On the plus side maybe the baby will be born on the 4th. That would be a fun birthday!!! Our baby will grow up thinking that the fireworks are just for them :)

Anyways, so the picture at 8 wks was really 5 and the picture at 13.5 wks was really 8.5 wks. Today I am 11 wks along. I will post pictures of the ultrasound so that everyone can see pics of the baby... Once I figure out how to use our scanner! Maybe I will just take a picture of the pictures and then load them on... anyway, they will come soon.

8 weeks!


OK I was trying to find a photo that showed my belly early in pregnancy so that you could see how fast my belly grew. I felt guilty that I didn't take one earlier. Anyway, this was about the only picture that I could find. Here I am at 8 weeks. This is the week before we found out we were expecting!

The Belly Bulge!!! 13.5 weeks


Scott and I figured that we better post some pictures before everything changes too much... cause it's been pretty quick so far. This is me at 13.5 weeks. Never thought that I would be showing so soon. One week I wasn't showing at all and then it just came out of nowhere!!! Thought it might be a few months before we could tell. Needless to say, we weren't really planning on sharing the news with the whole world for a while, haha :) Well, my belly has decided to tell the whole world for us instead.
Scott was so cute... he said "Honey, the reason that your showing so soon is because there is nowhere for anything to go!" You know with me being only 4'11 I couldn't argue. Anyway, we have been very excited and it is so fun to read each week how much the baby is changing and developing. This past week I read that week 13 the baby is the size of a peach. How cool right!?!
