Brandon and I went back to the doctor on September 2. Granna also accompanied us, which you should know, made Poppa upset. He didn't understand that it was a vaginal exam... And there are certain lines that a father-in-law cannot cross!!! :)
As soon as Dr. Mac started the sonogram I was amazed at how much our butter bean had grown. In just 10 days the baby had tripled in size. It is so amazing. I cannot even begin to explain all of the emotions that go through you when you see the baby growing before your eyes. The first trimester is so hard for a number of reasons... 1. All of the sickness...ugh, 2. not being able to feel the baby because its so small...mommies need reassurance, 3. and having to wait a whole 4 weeks before you can see the baby again!
We are so blessed! Words cannot explain what this baby already means to this family!
Here is my butter bean at 8 weeks...
Brandon has his finger at the baby's head and the bum is up against my uterine wall. The baby's legs and arms are at the top!!
