Baby Weber

Well, for those of you who do not know, we are "officially" announcing that I am pregnant. That's right... 3 times in 6 months... must be some sort of world record (at least I am convinced). I am just over 11 weeks now and the baby is doing well. My aunt has been doing ultrasounds weekly, which is nice, since I freak out at least once a week that something is wrong with the baby and that I have miscarried AGAIN. Last week we went to my first prenatal appointment and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat, what a relief. The heartbeat is still running a tiny bit fast, but we are not too worried about that... considering this is the first time that we have ever gotten a heartbeat on Doppler when we were supposed to! It has been really neat to be able to see how much our little baby has grown from week to week. At week 6 we could see a heartbeat :D Week 8 and 9 we saw the developing brain (so obviously a head too) and little legs. At week 10 we saw toes (so cute) and apparently the baby's arms decided to show up this week too :D The baby was doing somersaults at week 10 too. Dan was not able to see the baby at weeks 9 and 10. Which made week 11 ever more exciting... we got to see the baby moving again (this being this first time Dan saw the baby really move). This week we could see the baby's little hands and some fingers on the ultrasound. Dan said that the baby was dancing for us and that the baby only dances in public (like Dan does when we are in public). I think that we are going to have a 3D/4D ultrasound done sometime some.... probably in about 5 or 6 weeks. Here is the ultrasound picture from 6 weeks and a picture of the ultrasound screen at 11 weeks... now you get to see how much Baby Weber is growing :D

Yup, that is our little grain of rice baby :D


Dan is pointing to the baby's arm!
