1st scanning...

We went for ultrasound scanning for the 1st time. we were both very curious, wondering what would we see.... Slowly, doctor showed us, "see, that's the baby... hmm... it's quite big already, this pregnancy should be earlier than what you expected, let me calculate the size..." "it's 2cm, already 8 weeks and 4 days..." well, i had irregular period, so our calculation on when was this little fellow formed was incorrect..... then, the doctor pointed to a tiny fast beating 'cell' "that's the heart, look at the heart beat... " SO CUTE, yet so small, look like a single cell to me. After we got home, I kept thinking of the little fast heart beat on the ultrasound screen. It was amazing, and I wonder, since baby is so small at this time, why does it need a heart? yet, lewis laughed at me, saying i should had regretted that i gave up biology in high school...
