New Due Date

So, we had what we thought was our 22 week appointment today. Turns out it was actually our 21 week appointment. I got demoted!! Our new due date is December 5 - bumped back one week!

All the baby's body parts and organs are looking great!

We did get a video of today's ultrasound, but we can't look at it because we don't want to know the sex of the baby. So....that means you don't get to see it either!! :) We did get some pictures to share with you....although not as many as most people get at this point, again...because we don't want to know the sex of the baby.


Some facts from today:
The baby weighs 1 lb and 2 oz
The baby's heart beat was 148
I have offically gained 12 pounds! Whoa!!


The baby's spine, hands, legs, and head:
Similar shot as the one above:

Feet:

Feet again:

Left and right leg:

Heart - you can actually see all 4 ventricles:

The little computer hands are pointing to the hands:

Left and right arm:

Face - you can see the eye sockets really good in this one.
She said the eyes are still closed:
Face again - does the baby look like me or Luke??

20 weeks


I felt Baby moving!!

This is Luke....

I just wanted all of you to know that on Saturday night I felt the baby move for the first time. It was such a cool experience. Every night since then before we go to bed I ask Laura if I can feel for baby. She lets me....

Our Baby's Moving!!

Yep....I have felt the baby move several times this week!! I thought I might have been feeling the baby move before, but I wasn't sure. But now, I'm for sure!! There's been a couple of times where I've had my hand on my belly and can feel the tiny movements on my hand....what a cool feeling!

Luke is still patiently waiting to feel the baby move. I'm sure it will be a couple more weeks until he gets to feel it.

18 weeks...

Ok. so I'm a week late on this post. Here's a picture of me at 18 weeks.
I also went to the doctor last week and had another ultrasound. The baby is doing great! We haven't scanned in the pictures yet, so those will come later. As of last week, I've gained 5 pounds (but I'm sure it's more now!). Also, almost all my cysts are gone!!! I only have one small cyst (in comparison to what I had - it's 1.5 cm in diameter) on my right ovary. We really have to give all the glory to God on this one! Thanks for all your prayers!
