XP from birth month board: U/S went well! 7w3ds is a good place to be.

XP from our birth month board:Well, after a really wonderful couple of days following the teeniest bit of pink blood, we got in for an ultrasound and appointment. Great news: everything is fine! Embryo is right on target measuring one day ahead and with a brisk heart rate of 160 a minute. Dr. saw little arm buds and all in all, we are just thrillingly pleased!We have our referral to The Baby Doc, so that will be our next call. She just had her own baby, so that makes us feel reassured that she'll understand all our concerns and will probably be compassionate.got the go-ahead to return to my pre-conception exercise plan, which is pretty benign in the whole scheme of exercise options. I stopped once I started on Follistim because it made me ridiculously bloated the second day, so much so that I refused to even think about doing anything that would cause my beer-gut to sway or jiggle. Then during the 2ww I abstained from anything more strenuous than implantation accupressure and wandering around the house. And so since the pg has been confirmed, I have felt a little hesitant to start back up, since they say you can keep doing things that you were doing when you got pregnant, but I was doing little or nothing. Anyway, I'm going back to riding my bike on the trainer (fail-safe by being fall-safe!) and pushups, planks and some general light strength work. No dead lifts! No personal records!So here is our little pride and joy.Perfect, the doc said, everything looks just perfect. Sigh. Mama bliss . . .image

    Awesome picture and even better news! I'm struggling with the same concerns with exercise.  Running keeps me sane and I'm taking a break to get preggers, but it's a balance. Hoping that a gentle running routine will be reasonable to start back up once I things are underway. (I beta test Aug 15)

    Hope all goes smoothly!

    best,
