The Buzzbees

Today, we went in for our monthly pre-natal checkup. They said everything was good. They tried to get the heartbeat on the doppler, but didn’t have any luck. So they had to do another ultrasound to hear it. I didn’t mind because we got to have another peek at our little one. Of course, I’m sure we’ll have to pay for it too! But it’s just money, I guess. The nurse said that they had to hear the heartbeat at every appointment, so that’s why they did the ultrasound.

Baby Buzzbee (BB) looks good and, according to the ultrasound tech, was very active. I guess she looks at them all the time and could tell more than I could. We did see BB’s feet and hands moving a little though. It almost looked like BB was scratching his/her head. I’m going to get spoiled being able to see the baby every visit. Next time, I won’t be so lucky. But I think in 2 visits they will do my ‘half-way’ ultrasound to check all the necessary things then. So we’ll get to see BB at least 1 more time before October.

BB’s heartrate was 169 bpm and measured about 2 in long (about 11 weeks 3 days according to the system). Here’s a few pictures that we got.
