Our Baby at 8 weeks

Well it is hard to tell what you are looking at, but the head is at the bottom and the dark spot is the developing brain. This is an ultrasound at eight weeks one day. We also head the heartbeat at this doctor visit and the heartbeat was 169 beats per minute. This is fast, but they say at that stage that all heartbeats are fast. We are already trying to figure out if it is a girl or boy. There was a rumor that girls heartbeat is faster than boys, and I know some people this turned out to be true for, and others that it did not. We will see! Maybe at the twelve week appointment on September 1st!
