18w5d update

Tuesday was a big day for us! We saw Dr Rowe, the peri, this morning for the follow up u/s from the integrated screening. Everything looks great with the baby! 100% definately positive it is a boy! We were able to get great shots of the head, face, stomach, toes, legs, hands, heart, etc. We got a few good profile shots and a bunch of shots of his penis. We even got a picture of him flipping us the bird! He's in trouble already! He's measuring a few days ahead at 19w even so that is good. Kaelin was always behind, so I'm sure he's going to be a little bigger then she was. He was moving all over the place and the tech had to keep chasing him down. They said the placenta is not close to my c-section scar but is covering the front and top of my uterus. So no big suprise I'm not feeling anything definite yet. All the bloodwork for any genetic issues came back negative. We waited for a little over an hour so Kaelin was kind of burned out by the time we got called back. But, overall, she did good.


After lunch I went back for my regular appointment with Dr Files, my OB/GYN. My weight is up to 129 lbs, so almost back to where I started at. Blood pressure was good at 100/60 and I assume my u/a was clear. We discussed circumcision and she said she does it in the hospital before discharge. That's realy good because I've heard of a few doctors waiting a few weeks to do them. I go back in 4 weeks and then we'll do the GTT at 28 weeks and schedule our c-section. So everything is looking great and we're just plugging along!
