ultrasound update

Everything went great. I am measuring on track with my due date. All of the important things looked good. We saw the heart's 4 chambers, the brain, spine, stomach, kidneys, etc. Peanut looks healthy, we even got a wave. I had to get on my side a couple of times, the baby was facing down the entire time. The technician had me move to get the baby to move and it worked. We watched as the baby floated down onto their knees and finally allowed us to see their face. The boys seemed excited and unfazed all at the same time. I am just so relieved. It's a good feeling going into the long weekend knowing that everything looks good. The only way I will have another ultrasound is if the doctors think I need one. I had two with Charlie because his measurements were off. Other than that, we will see this baby in Jan. when it makes it's debut into the world. :)

Congratulations! So glad to hear that everything went well and that peanut is healthy. I'm sure that's a huge load off! :D

Regarding Harrison losing his teeth - that's the way it always seems to go around our house, too. I think in just one week , Natahn lost 3 teeth and Isaac lost two! It coulda been over the course of a week and a half, but I'm pretty sure they were all within days of each other. The tooth fairy almost had to do a re-fi that week. ;)

I'm so sorry I haven't been to the PO yet. It has been a crazy week and due to one thing or another, I've pretty much been "landlocked". Major cabin fever over here! LOL But, it looks like I will be able to get there tomorrow, finally. :)
