Holy Cow - there's really a baby in there

So I had my NT scan today at 12w4d. I won't have any results until after the second bloodwork at 16 weeks, but I'm really not worried!


As soon as the tech (who was super nice!) started the u/s, he showed me the heart beating away - which was great! I could then enjoy the rest of the ultrasound watching the little munchkin moving away! I was so excited for this one to see the baby actually looking like a baby! It's definitely getting more and more real and it's AMAZING!!!

Here's today's picture!

    I just had mine Friday...it is crazy seeing the arms move around! I also couldn't get over seeing the nose. Why the nose impressed me so much, I have no idea...

     Congrats on seeing LO! :)

    It's amazing to see the development.  I haven't seen LO in almost 4 weeks (after going for weekly u/s) and I can't wait to go next week and see how he/she has grown.

    Awesome u/s!

    Glad you had a good appointment. I just told someone yesterday how the n/t scan was my favorite because the baby was so active and moving all around! I looooved it. Plus - like you said he/she looked so much more like a real baby :)

    Thanks ladies!!! I was nervous too going in. Just wanted to know there was still a nice strong heartbeat!! Can't wait to hear about your upcoming scans. It was sooooo cool to actually see munchkin moving around!!
    DH said he thinks it's a girl and that it's going to look like me because of the nose. LOL I think it was an insult! Haha
