AMAZING U/S this morning. LO was totally dancing around in there. I just sat there with tears running down my face...there is totally a little baby in there. I could see it's arms and legs moving! So absolutely surreal! Apparently my week of rest has helped. LO has had 8 days of growth in the last week, and is measuring right on track at 9 weeks 4 days.
RE said everything looks great. I was sent with a graduation certificate, an envelope of records for my OB and lots of hugs! My first OB appt is next Friday.
