Such WONDERFUL news!!

This afternoon I went for my 11 week appointment. I have to admit, I was a little nervous. But, I know that everything is out of my hands and totally in God's hands. I totally trust that he will do what is best for our family. Well, my Dr., Dr. Campbell gave me the what to do/what not to do, what to eat/what not to eat, and a description of all my upcoming appointments with her. She said she will more than likely deliver our baby via C-Section a week or so before my due date which is August 2.

We went to the room and she immediately found our baby's heartbeat with the doppler!! Baby's heartbeat was VERY strong!! Dr. Campbell said the heartbeat was in the 160s and she THINKS by the rate of the heartbeat it will be a girl!! YEAH!! You can not even imagine how incredibly relieved I was!! I really do have a great feeling everything with this pregnancy is going to be okay, but it was still such a good thing to hear!! I did not get a sonogram today. I get to go on Jan 20th for what is called an Early Screen that will test for downs syndrome and Trisomy 13/18. I will keep this up to date with what is going on!!

Thank you again for all of your prayers!!

Here is what our baby is doing at week 11........

Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.

She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccuping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
