On August 5th I had my first ultrasound. Rich was unable to attend because he just started a new job the day before, so I invited my mom along (she and my dad were visiting from NH). It was really amazing. The baby measured 6 weeks and 4 days which brought our due date to March 27, 2009. If calculations are correct we had a July 4 baby! The best part of the whole visit is that we got to see and hear the heart beat through the ultrasound! It was amazing. Downside is that there is three ovarian cysts on my left ovary. That means I need to take it easy. Hopefully it will shrink in time. Here is a picture of our baby!
When I went to babycenter.com, they said the baby at 6 weeks is a size of a lentil bean! It's so crazy to know that something is growing inside me that Rich and I created. I don't think it's really hit him at this point. It'll probably take him much longer.
At the 6 week mark, my biggest complaint was being tired. I only feel slightly nauseous when it's time for me to eat...and then I feel fine. I think I'm pretty lucky.
