It was truly amazing seeing that there really is something growing in me! We were also able to see the heartbeat at a 112 beats per minute heart rate! Our little bean or "bump" as Craig likes to call him is right about where they thought measuring 6 weeks 3 days on Monday, July 27th. At first I was worried because that seemed low but I guess this early on that is very normal.
You really can not see much in the picture but that is from the internal ultrasound. By the way getting an ultrasound at 7:30 in the morning was not a good idea. They told me to drink six 8oz glasses of water and I almost lost it! Drinking so much so early made me extremely nauseous! Then when I get there she said I could have drank anything and I really don't need to drink that much. Oh by the way its too early to see anything from on top of the belly anyway so empty your bladder and we'll do an internal ultrasound. All of that was for nothing! Oh well now I know for next time.
Some more symptoms have definitely shown up. I am nauseous every morning, it gag really bad to the point of almost throwing up when I brush my teeth, and I've had really bad restless legs at night. Well my Uncle Joe gave me a sort of Old Wives Tale about putting a bar of soap under the sheets by your legs to cure the restless legs and it really works! I don't know why but I google it and a lot of people have had luck with it. Now if I could just find a cure for brushing my teeth!
