Me and the baby

At 12 weeks and three days of pregnancy, here's your first glimse at the new little one.

We don't know if this is a boy or girl, but we do know that little baby is very active! We got to see lots of arm and leg movement and just general squirminess on the monitor during the ultrasound. We also saw the heart beating (and heard it-160 bpm), the brain, and the spine. Everything is looking very normal.

They gave us half a dozen pictures, but only a couple are easy to see:


This one is a closeup of the head:


And this one looks kinda like a skull and crossbones to me, but I think it is the head in the bottom right, the arms up to the head, and the big blob is part of the body. But don't hold me to it.


As for me, I found some decently flattering new maternity jeans, so I thought it was about time to put a photo up:

What fun pictures of the new little one! Looking good, too :) Those jeans do look very nice on you.

160 beats per minute?! That's the same speed as "The Trooper" by Iron Maiden. The new baby rocks :).
