Say CHEESE, part 2

Today was our follow-up appointment with the doctor. Both Mike and I were a little nervous because we wanted to make sure the baby was growing at the rate that he/she should be ...

All our fears subsided once we saw the ultrasound ... the baby really did get bigger in just one week! The little guy/girl almost doubled in size! No longer did he/she look like a piece of rice, but he/she started to take the shape of an actual baby =) ... the doctor said the heartbeat was 114 beats per minute!!! So amazing!!!! I still have no idea how something that tiny could have such a strong heartbeat (or a heartbeat in general, for that matter!).

The doctor confirmed that the baby was right on track and that I was 7 weeks. The due date is officially January 27, 2011! Our next appointment is in July ... can't wait to see the baby again!

Here's the 2nd photo:
