Midwife/Babies First Ultrasound/8 weeks

I went to the midwife today! I loved meeting her and I feel like this is the way I want to go with this pregnancy. I think I rather deal with a midwife instead of a Doctor. She was so nice and way easier to talk to. IDK, she is in Rexburg and that is a little bit of a drive.

I went in thinking I was 9 weeks, and I am still pretty sure I am right. I calculated that I was due Dec 13th, but they said I am due Dec 22nd....the say the ultrasound is a great guesser. So it looks like I am exactly 8 weeks today. HMM...with Drake I was right on, so it is hard for me to want to believe the midwife, but she is a professional and I am not, so we changed my due date:( that means I have to wait and extra 2 weeks. Sad day.

Here are some ultrasound pictures. She was really funny, she thought that I was having twins. She kept looking around my tummy for another baby but couldn't find one. She said that the picture of the umbilical cord is a really rare shot unless there are 2 babies. But no luck at finding two, so I think I am safe to say we are only pregnant with one. (I am okay either way if the Lord thinks I can handle it than I will give it a try).


This is the umbilical shot, the rare one. The ball is the baby, and the thick line is the umbilical cord going from the baby to the embryonic sac. COOL I think.


This is a full body shot with the babies measurements, it shows that the baby measures exactly 8 weeks.

This is the last picture. It is a full body shot too. But you can see its arm and leg buds. I think the baby looks like a gummy bear. The midwife kept calling the baby cute. I thought that was a funny thing to call the little person.

I'm still pudgy from Drake.
