We saw the Doc today. After peeing in a cup and other unmetionable examining, we finally got to see the baby!!! The nurse in the room pointed out that it is the size of a gummi bear. Oh, how sweet. We have a gummi bear! And she/he did look somewhat like a gummi bear. (We will just call it a she for now). Dr. Rizutto kept pointing to stuff like the yolk sac and the amniotic sac and the umbilical cord, but I couldn't see any of it! I, of course, shook my head like I knew exactly what she meant. I mean, how could I tell her that it really just looked like a furry blob to me? BUT THEN I saw the flicker she kept talking about. It was the heartbeat!! Awww! It was so special to see that my baby's heart was beating. All the nervousness and fear that I had pent up in me for weeks melted.
So, here I am thinking of my little gummi bear. Hoping that the time will pass quickly so I can meet her. Next ultrasound will be in 4 1/2 weeks and I can see her again. Can't wait.
Goodnight gummi bear.
