Last week Billy and I went in for the "big" ultrasound. Well, our kiddo is doing great! We got to see the spine, the heart, liver, stomach, etc. And everything is right on target.
We also found out that we are having a baby boy! And he is already taking after his daddy. While I am measuring right on target and my weight gain is appropriate, he is measuring/weighing about two weeks ahead of schedule. We were informed that while he should have weighed between 11 and 15 ounces, our bun was tipping the scales at 1 1/2 pounds! Oh well, did we really expect a petite newborn? No.
But, other than his size, all is well. The ultrasound tech got a real kick out of watching how much he moved for us. We got to see him clench his fist and then stretch out his hand several times. Then he was sucking and swallowing fluid. He also pushed his feet right up against my belly, allowing us to count ten little toes. Before the ultrasound was over he had done a complete flip! He is an active one!
