The 1st Ultrasound

February 20, 2008- 13 weeks 2 days

We had our first ultrasound to determine gestational age since we were unable to determine even closely our date of conception. From our estimations, we thought we were about 16 weeks along. After measuring and determining the weight of the baby, it was confirmed that the baby was only about 13 weeks along which changed our due date from August 5, 2008 to August 24 2008 which was a bit of a shock, the only thing I could think of was "that's 3 more weeks of the heat". Everything looked good on the ultrasound. At this point we didn't want to know the sex of the baby, we had always knew we wanted it to be a surprise. We left excited to confirm that there was actually a baby growing inside of me. During this initial ultrasound we could see the baby sucking its thumb and it even had the hiccups!
