OB appt # 2



I had my 10 week checkup today. I have lost 4lbs since last time, but probalby is attributed to my tummy troubles. My blood pressure was fine at 120/65. Dr. Bellman tried to use a thing on my stomach to hear the heartbeat but it was to early for that or maybe there was too much (um.. tissue on my abdomen) getting in the way of it. So she had me go in the ultrasound room and have one done just to make sure that they could still hear a heartbeat and everything was fine. I was hoping I didn't jynx myself by telling everyone about it so soon. But she said it all looked great. I was really amazed to see the differnce in the size since my last appt. I think it is about 1 and a half inches long now when it was like as long as a grain of rice at my first appt! I hope everyone enjoys the pictures. You have to kind of use your imagination on seeing the parts in the picture. But when the technician was doing it I could see arms, legs that were bent at the knee. It was pretty cool. I wish Darrin could have been there but maybe next time. I think he would be pretty amazed at seeing that little image on the screen of our little "Darriana" as he likes to call it.
