I just realized that I have heartburn right now. It's awful. Can barely stand upright. I thought it was hunger pains in a place that wasn't my stomach!
We had a doctor's appointment on Friday and got to hear the heartbeat. I cried. It was my last appointment with Dr. Craig....I cried again. Then she did another ultrasound and we were able to see Baby Hergie's feet kick and hands move....I cried some more. Yes, I am a bit of a cryer. It's not even the hormones. I'm naturally like that. Then Nick left to go back to Norfolk. Any guesses at what I did? Come on, you know...
Anyway, I thought I'd post a couple of the ultrasound pictures instead of finding 17 week pictures online.
Can you see the legs in the top one???
Baby Hergie has legs!! Whew.
Our baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Our baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
