The baby is a swimmer!

I had a surprise u/s today. I went in to check for a cyst or something that could be the cause of this crazy, sharpshooter pain I've had for four days. I was sitting on the ever-so-comfortable examine table donned in my so sexy white napkin and the midwife walks in and says "I thought I'd see her in the sono room..."

Awesome. I reminded her I had my NT scan in less than a week, but hell, who turns down a sono? Especially one the Dr. says is "necessary".

I can't put into words how incredibly shocked I was when I saw the baby. He was MOVING. Flipping and kicking and waving his arms. Moving. It was nuts. She gave me two pictures taken within seconds and you can see the baby was kicking.

I was kind of disappointed because I wanted to see a big difference between the u/s at 8 weeks and 12 weeks (which OMG there was) but now I have another u/s at about 12 weeks and I'm thinking I won't be seeing a whole ton of growth. We'll see I guess.

So here he is, at 11 weeks 3 days! Keep growing babe!
