First Trimester COMPLETE!

We are finished with the first trimester! Here is the picture from the 12 week ultrasound:














At our appointment on June 15, 2009, we first had another ultrasound. The baby did not want to move around so the ultrasound technician could perform the scan to test for abnormalities. I had to cough and and eventually the baby moved around for us and we got a good, healthy measurement. The heartbeat was 168 and he or she is about 2 inches long.

We also had bloodwork, which is part of the test for abnormalities (came back good, too!) and met with the mid-wife.

Next appointment is a "belly check" mid-July. We have no idea what this is :)

  1. Since no one has commented yet, I am delighted to be the first. Hello Baby Lipton! You are so lucky to be on your way into this world with such loving parents and grandparents. You also have many "aunts" and "uncles" in addition to your "real" ones! I personally cannot wait to spoil you rotten. Some day when you are a little older, I will tell you all about your mom, your dad and our crazy times together. Be nice to your big sister Taylor and don't pull on her ears too much. (Don't eat her toys either or she will probably eat yours as revenge.) Love you already! xoxo Auntie Erin
