BIg Ultrasound!

This little pumpkin is being stubborn and uncooperative already! :D Wouldn't uncross its legs to get a look at the gender!

Everything else was great at the u/s - no red flags at all, so thats wonderful and all I really needed to know! The tech couldn't get a great pic of the spine, so I might be able to go back in a month for anoter scan to check that out, and maybe get a peek at gender then.

HB was 142, baby was measuring on time and is approx 8 oz - smaller than Levi who was about 11 oz 8 days later. This baby also is probably not as tall - the femur is measuring right on whereas with Levi is was measuring 29 weeks at the 20w u/s!

Placenta is anterior like I guessed, and baby is also currently transverse, so that explains why the movement has been so sporatic and off to either side, not down low in front like Levi.

Didn't get many good pictures since it was moving all over - I've got another super active one in there! But here are a couple:

16 week appt update

All is well! No protein in my urine this time. Weight is up a tad more than I would like, but I haven't been eating very healthy either :/

Blood pressure was a bit lower than normal - 100/50, but I also hadn't eaten anything yet today.

She found the heartbeat right away and felt around and showed me where my uterus was up to - about an inch below my belly button.

Talked to my ob about my concerns over switching doctors during the time I would be going in for the anatomy scan at 20 weeks, so she had it scheduled just a bit early so I can still have it done with her and she can go over results with me before her last day.

So, my big ultrasound is scheduled for May 17th!

Now if only I could convince dh to let me find out the gender...
