My doctor’s appointment on Tuesday went well. It wasn’t a huge one; the doctor just listened to the heartbeat — a fast 130something per minute — and talked about how the pregnancy was going so far.
I had another appointment yesterday at the university medical center downtown to have a first trimester screening ultrasound. It wasn’t required but we decided to go ahead and do it. Everything they look for in the ultrasound came out fine, and we got to see the Taco again. For the first time, it looked like an actual baby!
It was really awesome to watch the Taco move and jump around. It really did like to jump — boingy, boingy, boingy! It’s about two inches long right now. How cool.
Sadly, we won’t be able to peek inside again until our next ultrasound at 20 weeks, sometime in mid-February. Then we’ll be able to find out the sex. Exciting!
