Introduction
Hi everyone!
Well, I just got back from my doctor appointment and I
have great news! Everything looks good! I saw the baby
(I know it is supposed to be a fetus, but to me it is
my baby!). The heartbeat looks normal. I saw the
little arms and legs and of course the head, which is
bigger than anything else!
I am on cloud nine! It is the most amazing thing in the world to see a little person growing inside you. My hope for all you ladies TTC out there is you experience this feeling sometime soon. My only regret is that my husband couldn't be there to experience it with me. He had an interview that could not be rescheduled, so I went alone. I got pictures, which I will share with him when I get home this evening, but there is nothing like seeing it directly on the ultrasound screen! I decided not to post the ultrasound pictures, because they are not real clear. After scanning them and posting them I thought the quality would be even worse and you wouldn't be able to see much.
This is my final entry to the precon diaries and I hope to move on to the Pregnancy Today diaries soon. This is not goodbye, because I will still be checking with my friends back here on these boards and you can always come visit me on the PG diaries. Thanks so much for reading and following along my journey. It was rough at times, but the result is so worth it!
Baby dust to everyone!
Janet
