Ultrasound Pictures 10/28/08 8 Weeks

I'm finally getting around to posting the ultrasound pictures from October 28th. You can see the head, body and arms. I promise the baby has legs! You just can see them in this view. Thanks for checking in. Mom, Dad, and Baby are all doing well.

First Appointment

We saw the doctor for the first time this past Tuesday. It was a very long, but also exciting visit. We had our first ultrasound and will be posting pictures soon. It was amazing to see our little one in action and to hear the little heartbeat. Baby Long is now 1.6 cm in length, has two arms, two legs, and a strong heartbeat (160 bpm). As expected, our due date is June 10, 2008.

We have created this blog to allow us to keep our family and friends updated on the growth and development of the addition to the Long Family. A week ago today was pregnancy test number one. The line wasn't very dark so a second pregnancy test was taken the following day. Still unsure of the results, Justin made me take yet a third test before telling our parents last Sunday afternoon. So...in Justin's mind, our pregnancy was determined in the bathroom of McAllister's in Avon, IN. Today, we are about 4 weeks along and feeling great! No nausea, just tired most of the time. I'm sure the nausea will come soon enough! Our first appointment with the doctor is October 28th. We'll be sure to post our due date as soon as we know. We expect it will be a June baby, but the date is yet to be determined. For now, keep us in your prayers as we begin to prepare for our little blessing!
