12 Week Ultrasound & Baby Bump

For the twelve week ultrasound, I went to John Muir Perinatal Group for the first tri-mester screening tests. This is where the doctor takes a bunch of measurements around the base of the baby's neck to determine whether we are at increased risk for down syndrome or trisomy 18. I wish I would have had Jeff at this appointment because the baby was projected on a big screen t.v. mounted to the ceiling. It had facial features, a little pot belly, and little feet that it kept crossed at the ankles. I even got to see the arms and legs move and it was just so amazing to watch. More and more this baby was starting to take on an identity of its own.
