Second Ultrasound Update

We had our second ultrasound today, and we've officially graduated from the RE to the OB. Now I have to go and find one that I like :)

The baby is measuring a couple of days ahead at 2.2 cm, and we were able to see tiny arms and legs! Baby was waving hello! It is incredible that at our 6 week ultrasound, just before my trip, the baby measured at 0.27. As our lovely RE said, two weeks is a long time in the life of an fetus.

The heartbeat is up to 167 bpm and we were beaming when we left. I am a bit sad to leave our lovely RE and his staff though. If anyone is in Denver, I would highly recommend Dr Kenneth Faber with Kaiser. 

Also, I have discovered Unisom and B6 for morning (all day) sickness. It is my new best friend :)

    Congrats those are awesome numbers!  I was really bittersweet to leave our RE as well.  He helped us make our family and we got to know their staff and loved their care! 

    Find an OB whom you love and who's treatment is in line with what you want.  Best of luck looking!
