It's moving!!!!!!!! 10w3d scan

My bean has become a baby!! With arms and legs, and a very visible skull structure! Most exciting part was we saw it dance and hop and doing the body wave! It was SO amazing! This is the first time I’ve seen fetal movement and it was just so incredible to see a living moving being inside of me. Seeing it move definitely substantiated its existence and hopefully continued existence. I’m pregnant! We’ve created a life!

It was measuring 41 mms and at 10weeks 6 days although doctor said give or take about a week due to equipment inaccuracies, so we didn’t change my dates. Heart was beating at doctor’s guess, 150-160 bpm.

Well we're super duper excited, but probably won’t stop worrying until it’s full term and out of me. The next thing to worry about is the first trimester screening in 2 weeks for chromosomal abnormalities. Based on our family history, we shouldn’t have much to worry about, but you just never know.

We got the most amazing scans! They're beautiful and I even have a clear one of it's skull!!! So cool! Hubby said it looks like the Punisher lol. Doc tried to get a profile shot but the babe kept swimming around turning its back towards us. It was soooo cute!

The Punisher?

Baby's frontal head view:

Getting closer to comfort: 7 weeks 6 days

yay! Baby grew. We're measuring right on schedule, 7W6D or 8W. Fluttering heartbeat and everything.

This is reassuring. Doc will not see us for another 4 weeks, unless I get anxious again and will book another ultrasound at 10 weeks (they know me so well by now). I'll also be getting the first trimester screening which is I guess the nuchal scan? at 12 weeks.

So far, it's looking good. I also bought my first maternity related item - a belly band. Overnight, my tummy blew up and won't deflate like it used to after passing some wind. I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable right now just sitting in my pjs. I guess it might have to do with the fact that my uterus is now the size of a grapefruit!
