Thor Baby

It’s official – we are pregnant!

We found out January 28^th but didn’t want to make it public until we had heard the heartbeat and had an ultrasound to make sure everything looked good.

We had our 12 week baby appointment today (I am 11 weeks 2 days today) and we heard the heartbeat! I looked over at Trevor and he was teary eyed. It was adorable. This baby is already in the palm of daddy’s hand.

The midwife said the heartbeat was strong and healthy.

Then I asked if we could get an ultrasound? We weren’t due for one, but since it’s our first baby we both were just beyond antsy to see the little baby.

She snuck over to the ultrasound room to see if it was vacant (they had an ultrasound specialist in that day, so they were booked solid for ultrasounds) and luckily for us, it was. They were right between appointments.

It was a minute or less before she had our baby up on the screen! And boy, was our baby moving around. Summersaulting, stretching, standing on its head, standing straight, twirling…

 

Stretching out

 It was amazing. I cannot comprehend that there is a little baby inside of me, moving around like that.

We call the baby Thor. It’s been an inside joke with Trevor we will name our baby boy Thor Schauerhamer. And since I got pregnant, we just started calling it Thor. Sachi made the comment, "I sure hope it's not a girl, or else she will come out with a unibrow" HAHA. 

The midwife said it’s too early to tell, but if she had to guess she’d say 70%  chance of a girl.

We don’t even know what to do with this information. We’ve both only thought boy since we found out. 

 

Mikail said now in light of this information we should call it Thornrose. McKenzie has been calling it Conrad, and I have no idea why. When I told her what the midwife said about a girl, she said it should be called Conrad Bob.

I’m still hoping for a boy though.

Thor is measuring 2 days ahead, at 11 weeks 4 days today.

 

My due date is October 4^th.

 

We love you, Thor baby!

 

Love,

Brittney
