First OB Appointment

Today was our first doctor's appointment for the new baby. I was excited to go and hear the heartbeat for the first time. When we got there and started talking to the nurse practitioner, she said we would not be able to hear the heartbeat because it was too early. But, she said I will be going an internal ultrasound and you will be able to see the heartbeat. So, I was ok with that. I didn't have an ultrasound this early with Zander, so it was neat to be able to see the baby at the first appointment. It's crazy what they can do these days!! She confirmed that the due date I came up with was accurate, so December 11th is the official due date. I will be having another c-section with this one because of the way Zander was turned during delivery. I am A OK with that! My next appointment is on the 2nd of June. I believe they are going to do another ultrasound then, but I'm not sure. And I should defiantly be able to hear the heartbeat then. In July sometime, I will find out the sex of the baby, so look for that info. Other then that, everything looks good so far. Here are the ultrasound pics:

This is a front view of the head and body. You can see the little nubs as they call them, which are the arms and legs.

This is a profile view of the head and body. The baby actually moved when we were looking at this position, so we got to see him or her moving around already!
