First Pictures of Baby Koopmans

Profile shot with arm touching forehead.

We had our ultrasound yesterday. I am 19 1/2 weeks. Besides the fact that I had to drink alot of water and had to pee really bad; it was alot of fun and awesome to see. The ultrasound tech did let me go to the bathroom half way through so that was nice. She took all sorts of measurements and looked at all the different parts of the baby like the heart, brain, kidneys and bladder. She said that every part looked "good" but I have another doctors appointment next week. When the tech was measuring the legs she said that if we did not want to know what the baby's sex is to look away....well Ryan stared it the screen the whole time and could not see what she was even looking at. The baby was also moving around alot. It was funny though because once the tech was done measuring the legs she said.."now I am going to look more closely at "his" arms and Ryan called her on it saying that she said "his"...I did not hear her say that. But really, we do not know what we are having. The baby's heart beat was 142 and with the techs measurements weighs 8oz and is 8-10 inches long. She stated that my due date could actually be June 2, 2008 but again we will have to see what the doctor says next week. It was really amazing to see the baby moving and kicking...it is a miracle.
