The fun part of Monday...

Even with all of the stress and medical terms during the ultrasound, it was an amazing experience. The baby didn't want to cooperate and move into the correct position. The tech had me laying on each side in an effort to get the baby to move. It was fun to watch the baby shift into a new position that wasn't good either. The baby did finally cooperate and the tech got all the images she needed. We got to see the baby opening and closing its mouth several times. The baby was busy moving its arms and legs. It was amazing to see all the little bones in the hands and to the see the heart beating. At one point, the baby was laying its head against the aorta. With every heartbeat, the blood vessel would bump its head. I imagine that would be annoying, but the baby didn't seem to mind. The baby currently weighs 11 ounces. I can't wait for the next ultrasound!
