6 Weeks

Much to Jeff and I's excitment, the 2nd ultrasound proved to be great for a number of reasons. First, the doctor immediately saw the heartbeat - 132 beats per minute - which is "beautiful" according to him. He said a heartrate over 120 bpm is considered good. Second, he gave me an estimated due date: December 6th. This u/s apparently bumped be from 6weeks0days to 6weeks2days. Third, the baby is growing normally! It measured 0.48cm long - about 5x bigger than last week!

The doc told me to make an appointment with an OB for 4 weeks from this week. He will be caring for me until then, and I have a third u/s with him in 2 weeks.
