Well today we went to the doctor not expecting any surprises! But, that didn't happen. We went in and the nurse started to try and find the heartbeat with the doppler she couldn't find it so she went and got another nurse. At this point I was ready to cry and was very scared. She couldn't find the heartbeat either so she told us she was going to get the ultrasound machine and Dr.Antolin. At this point I was crying and it was all John could do not to as well! Well Dr.Antolin came in and found the baby right away. He/she was taking turns kicking then punching me and moving all around! Dr. Antolin then looked at John and told him to turn his head and he then told John yep the baby's got your head!!! So John just loved that and now he's sooo excited the baby's got his head! It was such a relief to see the baby moving and it's heartbeating at 161 BPM. We also got to see the heart rate as shown below. Dr.Antolin said that he is still projecting my due date March 20th. He said they will know more the next ultrasound which will be in November unless Tony/Ellie is being a stinker again on October 16th our next appointment. He said it will also help when they measure me with the due date. He said that we may just have to find a reason for an ultrasound next time since i'll be around 18 weeks then so we can know what we are having. So we won't really know until we get to the doctor wether we'll find out what were having or not! I am doing great though no problems at all! My bloodwork all turned out great and my thyroid's doing great as well! I am definitely starting to show i'm pregnant and it's crazy how it all of a sudden just changed. Our next appointment is October 18th at 3:30! We will update you all later until then enjoy the unexpected yet amazing ultrasound pictures of Tony Joseph Fernando Benson or Ellie Raye Sylvana Benson!!!
Baby Tony or Ellie (has Daddy's head for sure)
