Another update on baby:
Today I had another ultrasound and appointment with the midwife and Mom L was able to join Emily and I for the visit. It was nice to see the baby again on the monitor and No..... we are STILL not finding out the baby's gender! ;-)So basically everything looks good. The technician said that the heartbeat was normal and all of the baby's limbs/organs looked good. They estimate the baby's weight to be 2 lbs., 13 ozs. today, which puts our little peanut in the 41st percentile. The due date is still unchanged (5/19/09) and the baby's head was down. I visited with the midwife after the ultrasound who indicated that all of my bloodwork is "right down the middle for values" so basically, I'm average! I'm down to scheduling appointments with the midwife/doctors now for every two weeks. The picture below is of the baby's face (although it's probably hard to tell for most people). The forehead and eyes are to the right of the image and the nose and mouth are toward the center from the right. The blurry spot in the middle of the image is an arm that was sort of crossed over part of the face. At one point, we could see the baby opening and closing it's mouth, which was neat!

First Ultrasound of Baby #3
Today I had my first ultrasound done of baby #3 and it was exciting for us. I was happily surprised when Tim showed up for the appointment, which was not planned since the appointment was in the middle of the day and he had to get out of work for it.
We arrived at Seton's Imaging place a little early and the technicians took us back quickly. There was a more experienced technician training another technician so I think we spent a little more time "learning" about the baby (and me) than we normally would have, which was nice. Overall, I'm a pretty happy camper, now that I've seen the baby in there, and saw the little tiny heart fluttering! They said that the baby is measuring on target for what we had predicted my due date to be and that they consider me now at 9 weeks and 1 day pregnant. Here is a video and picture of our first ultrasound. Enjoy!
