Getting to Know





We went in for an ultrasound the other day to check on baby's development and to find out it's sex.  A good thing we wanted to know, because it was the first thing the technician found.  Sebastien will have a little bother brother. Let's hope he is learning how to share well at daycare.

The baby has ten fingers, ten toes, heart & spine development look normal. Whew. We had declined first trimester screening. So it was good to know all was growing as it should. We are still on track for a late September delivery. The technician tells us that baby is the weight of a full can of coke. No length measurements.  His placenta is along the back of my utereus (part closest to my back). Which could explain why I feel so much more movement now.  Luckily for us, the radiology center had just upgraded the ultrasound machine, so we could get 3D images. Of no diagnostic value in this case, but pretty.

    How cool to get a 3D image without having to pay extra! You didn't tell me! Somehow I think Sebastien will find "bother" more appropriate than "brother" for a while...

    WHAT!! Ten fingers is not right at all. Hopefully you meant eight fingers and two opposable thumbs. Glad to hear all is well
