9 week prenatal visit

Finally the day has come ;-) I've been counting down the days til today to finally get to see the baby again and know that everything is ok. After filling out tons of paper work Eric and I got to see our baby on the ultrasound screen. The Dr. called it a little Gummy Bear cuz, well it did kind of look like one ;-). He pointed out the head and the arms and legs, soooooooo cute. Needless to say we were super excited when he turned up the sound and we got to listen to the baby's heart beat. It was super fast but wow this was like the most amazing thing ever!!! The baby even did a little wiggle for us and we got a real good look at that little heart beating away ;-)





So after measuring the baby it turned out I am 9 weeks and 1 day. Our due date however was calculated on me being 9 weeks and 5 days so Baby Baal is expected to arrive around November 27th ;-).

Now it's time to wait again until in 4 weeks for my next check up. I will be 13 weeks and 1 day by then, CRAZY!

7 weeks pregnant and counting ;-)

Well not much to post, but here is a picture of my belly at 7 weeks and 1 day. Things are going great, I feel amazing besides feeling like a blob, LOL.

First Dr. Visit

7 pregnancy tests later Eric and I had our first doctors appointment on March 31, 2010. All they did was confirm that I'm pregnant and whohooooo we got our first picture ;-)

This is baby Baal at 5 weeks and 4 days according to the DR. (I think I'm only 5 weeks though ;-) )



As you can see not much to actually see but hey it already looks like a Baal ;-).

I'm still feeling great I have a couple symptoms but everything is super minor so I guess I can still count myself as lucky. My only complained I am soooooo hungry all the time even at night, which makes it very hard to sleep ;-(

Our next appointment will be on April 29, 2010 I'll be a little over 9 weeks by then and so we are excited to be able to hear the baby's heart beat and actually see the little Baal.

I also had Eric order me a prenatal work out video so I can stay in shape but safely ;-). Here are some belly pictures at 5 weeks.

Welcome to our family Blog ;-)

Wow, so I'm not a blogger, but given that we live quite far away from some of you, I guess this is the best way to keep you updated on what is going on in our lives. And well what can I say, we do have quite a big announcement to make ;-)

WE ARE .....





Chloe had to make sure the results were accurate ;-) And according to her we are definitely pregnant ;-)


Eric and I couldn't believe it, on Friday March 26, 2010 I finally decided to take a pregnancy test to see what is going on. I have been feeling quite tired and just not myself for the past couple of days so ... well the digital pregnancy test did confirm my suspicions. I am about 4 and 1/2 weeks along at least according to my calculations.
