Only One!

One little fetus, waving it's arms and legs. Phew. The fetus is measuring 12w4d, so about a week further than we thought. There was also a 2 cm fibroid that the technician said is probably nothing to worry about. She took some photos of it to show the doctor.

Update: Graeme pointed out that I could try to take a picture of the picture. It's not that great, but here it is.

We get to go again next week because the little shit wasn't cooperating and wouldn't face the right way to get the measurements needed for the screening. Hopefully we'll get the profile view.

(Updated pregnancy countdown is now at the bottom of the page, since it was getting cut off on the side)

WHEEEE!!! But... the only photo I get is of an ass an a foot? Are we seeing the good bits first or what?!? Can we name the fibroid too? After all, it might grow (just teasing). Congrats again Bethy -- can't wait for the next photo! (I'm so glad s/he was hiding so I can get another pic!)

The only view s/he gives you is an ass shot... sounds like trouble already :-)

Looks great!

I am always amazed at how long it takes technology to filter down into some areas. It seems like everything is computerized now, but all the ultrasound machines look like technology from 20 or more years ago. You'd think they'd be sending you home with a digital movie. Instead they still print out little images on thermal paper. Luckily that still works just fine.
