Today I had my second ultrasound but this time my first abdominal ultrasound. This ultrasound was worlds different from the last. I got to see the baby moving its hands and feet, turning on its side and back, and could see its spine and just many more details than last time of course! I so wish I had an ultrasound machine here at the house so that I could watch my baby all day long! Its just so amazing that something so small has so much life and will come to be my son or daughter, creation is simply amazing! I also had a screening done for birth defects and all my numbers were great so nothing to be worried about there. Also they have moved the due date to April 24th which is also my own birthday, no gift could ever compare to that!
How our baby is growing at 11 weeks: Now just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost full formed. The hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under the gums, and some of the bones are beginning to harden. Baby is also very busy kicking and stretching however I will not be able to feel any of these movements for another month or two.
As for symptoms I have been experiencing fatigue, burping, some abdominal cramping, some anxiety here there, and a little trouble sleeping but all in all I feel great especially since my nausea has subsided a lot. Tomorrow I have a OB/GYN appointment with my regular doctor and I will be sure to blog about that so be sure to check in for updates!
