hmmm...

Well, the journey so far has been adventurous- a bit of scary feeling like when you ride a roller coaster. That's why I kept away in seclusion from this blog. For some reason I thought- it's better to give yourself a space.

Keeping aside the scary part, onto an optimistic and +ve news! I will start 12 weeks starting today. I am sort of confused, as in our last doc's appointment thee nurse pushed our D date back to 3 more days. That is made it Feb 9 instead of Feb 6!! They monitor baby using ultrasounds, and derive the d- date with that. Ultrasound reminded me, that I have to scan the ultrasound picture and post it soon here. We've gotten 2 ultrasounds so far, and the baby looks cute :). In the 1st very ultrasound, we could hardly make out anything. When doctor's told us, that this is the head and thats baby toes... then we realized to the fact that we are looking at some baby and not a piece of peanut! Ha!! Ya that's how babies look when they are just 6-7 weeks old (gestational age).

The second ultrasound, took both of us by surprise. The baby was moving his/her legs and hands up and down. The technician said that we woke up the baby and Amit named the moment as "baby first yawning moment". It was an ecstatic moment and feeling, when you see a live inside you.... its amazing and beyond expression.

The next appointment is not until next Friday, when we'll complete the first trimester and we are hoping to see and hear good and +ve things from the doctor then. Fingers crossed!!
