Seventeen Weeks

How far along? Seventeen weeks - 12/10/10
 
How big is baby?


Next appointment: January 4th


Movement: Oh, yeah!

What I'm Looking Forward To: The boys' birthday party next week, and Christmas (it's coming fast)! We finally got our tree up, so it looks a little more festive at our house.
 
Reflections on this week: Nathan and I went to an OB appointment on Tuesday, and we got to take a peek at Baby! The first thing I saw was that beautiful, beating heart. Then, as if on cue, Baby's hand appeared and gave us a "thumbs up!" I almost cried. 

 Torso (circle on left) with heart (dark spot in center) and thumbs up on the right!

We got a preliminary guess about whether we're having a boy or girl, but will wait for official confirmation at my next appointment (which includes our big 45-minute anatomy ultrasound). I can't wait to see if all is well! I can't believe we're almost halfway there already!
