Sorry I didn’t post sooner, I had a very stressful day.
I woke up early full of excitement about my BPP U/S (biophysical profile Ultrasound) to get a sense of how big the baby is and make sure things look Ok in there. There are a couple of concerns with post date babies other than size, [...]

I didn’t think I wanted to do maternity pictures, but with my due date less than a week away (yowza!) I was afraid I might regret not having any that I didn’t take of myself in the bathroom mirror. I also used it as en excuse to teach Jeff how to use the new [...]

I got the best possible news, my cervical length is still 3.5, which means no change at all since my anatomy scan at 19 weeks! No funneling either, so bed rest is off the table, yay!
I had the sweetest ultrasound tech in the world. He’s a young dad of three, and he took the time [...]

Yes, we are in complete shock!
So much for intuition. I actually just realized that there was one person close to me who got it right. Before I even got pregnant, my best friend Alexis had a dream that I had a boy on St. Patricks Day. Obviously I’m not having him on St. Patrick’s day, [...]

I can’t believe than in about 18 hours we will finally know if we are having a boy or a girl! As usual before ultrasounds, I am nervous that we will discover something is wrong, and I am quite sure I won’t be getting any sleep tonight both from excitement and anxiety. Ahhhhhhh!
For the record, I [...]

The NT scan was absolutely amazing.. completely surreal that there is a little baby growing inside me. And unlike my last two ultrasounds where it was just a blob with a heartbeat, becoming-baby actually looks like a mini baby - fingers, toes, face, arms legs and everything!
The baby was moving around so much, waving, kicking, [...]

Today was such an exciting day, we heard our baby’s heartbeat, I “graduated” from my RE, and will most likely get to stop taking those disgusting progesterone suppositories!
Dr. K started off the scan by zooming in so we could see how much blobby has grown in the past week and a half:
The entire baby is [...]

Due to the spotting and cramping, I went in for my second ultrasound yesterday instead of Thursday like I had planned. Blobby is doing great and Dr. K said there was lots of development. I couldn’t tell at all (other than the fact that the sac was bigger) until he zoomed in and we saw [...]

Yesterday was an exciting day, it was my first ultrasound since our BFP and an important one because it makes sure that the embryonic sac is in the uterus and not a tubal pregnancy or anything.
Jeff has never been to my RE. Ever. So he sort of surprised me the day before saying he wanted [...]
