And this child is.....
Dan and I couldn't be more excited! For months, we've been praying for a healthy baby, and that's exactly what we will be getting! The ultrasound went perfectly! I was a bit nervous going into the room again, and I even began to tear up a bit. I was still feeling pretty nervous during the first few measurements, until the nurse technician showed us the beating heart!!! Oh, the tears began to flow down my cheeks out of pure joy and relief! Such a sweet, wonderful thing to see! After that point, I was really able to fully enjoy seeing our little guy!! The feet - that I can't wait to kiss all over! The hands that I can't wait to hold! The nose, mouth, eyes, and ears! Everything is perfect!
It took a few minutes to see the gender of the baby - his legs were crossed. The nurse would jiggle my belly to get him to move around a bit - it was so funny seeing him move with the bounce of my prego belly! But finally we were able to see a clear picture of his little "turtle" -as the nurse called it! :)
The baby is big! It, no, no, I mean "he" currently weighs 9 ounces, and is measuring in at 19 weeks, instead of 18 weeks. The doctor's may be changing my due date by one week, but they're going to wait and see a bit longer because my 7 week ultrasound was measuring perfectly with an August 17th due date. She said if the baby reaches more than 8 pounds towards the end of my pregnancy, than I can go ahead and plan on being induced. But we'll cross that road when it comes.
So, now it's off to work for me. And time to go fishing for Dan - after he too works for a couple hours!
Can't wait for you all to meet our little guy!! Thanks so much for all your continued prayers! And thank You Lord for a healthy baby boy!!!
Have a wonderul day!
