Our little gummy bear..

We had another sonogram done this past Monday. We got some more pics of our little one and also got to hear the heartbeat. It was SO amazing!! I just cant believe how much the little one has grown since the last sonogram. You can actually see a "baby" now instead of a big blob, ha! The nurse told us when we were looking at the pics that he/she looks like a little gummy bear and I think she hit it right on. Look at the big head, big body, and little limbs. SO tiny, SO cute, SO sweet, SOOOOO loved! We go back on the 20th for our 1st appt w/ the Doctor. Chadd hasnt met him yet and I've only met him once so it'll be nice to talk w/ him. We met w/ this nurse his past Monday. She was SO sweet and really took the time to answer any questions we had. Of course we went in w/ a list since its our first and we have lots and lots of questions :D :D

The 1st pic is our little baby and at the bottom it shows the heartbeat. The heartbeat was 175. Boy or Girl.. hmmmmm......


This is a 3D pic she took of the baby.


Baby is not quite yet an inch. Can you believe its so small? It is the size of a pinto bean right now.. grows so quickly though. It just looks like it would be so much bigger from the pics.


Our little gummy bear in its home, at least for the next 7 months :D


Oh yeah, they changed our due date back to December 17th. We're just leaving it to the 17th, regardless of what the sonogram's say. I know it'll probably flucuate from time to time and we dont want to have to keep going back and forth. Soooooo.... tomorrow I'll be 9 wks!! I'll be back w/ a 9 wk update soon!! :D xoxo

Awww... these pictures are GREAT!!! So little- so sweet!! I honestly don't have a feeling either way as far as boy or girl right now... one minute I think boy, and the next girl. I can't wait to find out though! It will be so much fun!

Yep Em's heartbeat was higher too, and Jude's was always in the 140's until the end and then his was high. Who knows, but I hope it's a girl so Linda doesn't put high heels on your boy. ha

Those pictures are so clear! That's so awesome that you got a 3D picture too. You can totally make out everything- even the little eyes! Yay!

Just found Halley's sonogram when I was as far along as you were when you had yours and her heartbeat was 176!!! Maybe it's a little girl!!!
