I am going to follow in so many other wonderful ALI blogger's footsteps and have a separate tab for all U/s pictures and belly shots. I personally love seeing others photos, but I do remember a few times where it was difficult for me to see. I really don't want to upset anyone so everything will be here instead of on my main page.
Here is where the nickname Roo came from. Right before my IUI I received a
package in the mail from the lovely
Dandelion Breeze.
Along with socks and some treats she sent a little kangaroo with a joey
in her pouch for good luck. Well, I now have a little joey growing in
my pouch! Joey was a little too boyish so we went with Roo, boy or girl!
So, where did we come up with Squirt? Actually it was all Hubby. While I
was putting my pants back on after the U/s the Hubby was staring at the
U/s photo smiling ear to ear. When he showed it to me he pointed to Roo
and said "Roo", then he pointed to the baby on the baby on the left and
said "Squirt". I looked at him and smiled. It was perfect. I asked him
how he came up with it and he shrugged. "I don't know, it just came to
me". He did confess later that it in fact was the turtle from finding
nemo, which I figured because he always loved that character. I actually
gave him a little Squirt stuffed animal when we were dating. It will be
going in the nursery! I also think it's perfect because that baby is
smaller and our little Squirt.

Top of head to the right. Can you see the little skeleton/alien looking face? So cute! |

It was amazing to see their little faces! |

Roo had legs curled up to chest. |
|
Roo's back is facing us and was moving around so much we couldn't get a good pic. |
|
Squirt is on the left head up. You can see the head, hands, body and feet! |

Roo is on the right side of the sac. See the cluster of white inside the black? There was a beautiful heartbeat!!! |

Roo is on the top right. Second sac on the bottom left. We will see if there is a baby in there next week. |

See that darker blob in the center left? That's the amniotic sac! |
Oh Cool! This is very good news.

ReplyDeletecan't wait to see all the pics!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for these pics. Can I also say, and I mean this in the best way possible, but I am so excited to see pregnancy pics from a woman who looks like I do, body wise. Normally, you can only find very small women's pics online. So think you for sharing. I can't even begin to describe how much it means to me. Makes me believe more that some day I can have these types of photos, too:) Many hugs.
ReplyDeleteI love these pics, Emily!!
ReplyDeleteWow, you really did pop this week! You look great mama!!
