When I was 6 weeks along...


I took 2 home pregnancy tests, about a month after getting home from Italy. Both were positive. Matt and I made an appointment right away for the doctor, and she confirmed it was true! That day (August 25th), we have our first ultrasound. They calculated I was 6 weeks along, and measured the baby to be 4mm long. We even got to see the flickering of the heartbeat and also hear it!

Here is a picture of me at 6 weeks.

And, here is the ultrasound picture from the 6 week appointment. The blob next to the baby is the "yolk sac" which eventually forms the placenta.
