Ultrasound!!!! (Feb.24, 2009)
Wow what a fun and exciting thing. First the radiologist started by measuring all the body parts. She then reported that those were all in the normal range and she estimated that the baby weighs 10 oz. Then she took lots of pictures of all the different organs for the doctor to look closely at. Then she started taking pictures for us to take home. Baby was moving around a lot the entire time. She said what a great thing that was because that meant baby had lots of energy to waste. Every time the radiologist went to take a face forward picture with the 3D on the babys head would be turned or the placenta and or arms were in the way. Thats ok though we still got some good pics to treasure. As for finding out the sex we decided to wait. Keith made the point that there are so few surprises in life. Its going to be hard for me to stick with this decision though just because I know Im going to want to go shopping.
2nd Check up (Feb.10, 2009)
I know its late but better late than never right? At our second appointment we heard the heart beat again. The nurse found it right away and said we had an easy baby. I think baby Recker just wants to be heard! I cant remember what they said the heart rate was but it was somewhere around 150. The doctor felt my uterus and said I was measuring right on for 17wks. She also said that I was a little low on Iron and so we picked up some supplements and started those right away. The most fun news of all though is we scheduled our ultrasound! We weren't expecting to do that and so it was a great surprise. Its at 4:00 on Feb. 24th! We can't wait!!! Keith still doesn't want to know the sex and I still do so their will definitely be some debating in our house the next couple weeks! If you have an opinion on the subject be sure to post it! We would love to hear your thoughts!
