First look at baby Younger

We had our regular OB checkup today. I was only expecting to hear the heartbeat not see our little one! I am 11 weeks and they were afraid we wouldn't be able to pick up the heartbeat on the regular doppler so they did an ultrasound to see the little heart beating! It was small but you could see it! It was a quick appointment but we got to take home this precious picture of our LP3- Little Peanut 3! Right when he/she came on the screen his/her little hand was sticking straight up!
We go next Thursday- December 2nd for an appointment at Maternal Fetal Medicine. We will have a consult with the doctors and also a Nuchal Translucency scan. It is a sonogram where they can measure the fluid on the back of the babies neck. If this is thick it usually means some type of chromosome defect. We will have the big sonogram where they can look at the babies heart at 20 weeks- probably in late January.
