Oooooooh, We're half way there.....

Hard to believe that we are well into the second trimester and at the 20 week/half way point! Today the three of us loaded up and headed to the imaging center for my ultrasound. The tech could not have been ANY nicer, and we couldn't have ask for better behavior out of Lexie. The ultrasound lasted 45 minutes, though I could have stayed for hours! It is so unreal to see the baby moving, all ten fingers and toes, the heart beating, and everything progressing like it should! I told the tech that if I could get an ultrasound ever day I would!

During the first ultrasound, the baby's heart was beating at a rate of 167bpm...now it is 148bpm, (all well within the normal ranges!!!) and is tipping the scales at 10oz!!! The head circumference, abdomen, and thigh bones all measured on track for a June 12th arrival. The tech said that everything looked great and by all accounts healthy! While I wish we would have gotten pictures of some of the other images, here are a few good ones!


This photo is the first profile shot we saw...what a cutie pie already!!!


Another profile shot...if you look half way down the picture on the right hand side, you can see a foot! And between the forehead and the nose you can see some fingers!



This shot shows the baby in deep thought...that is a hand just above the baby's eye! It was amazing to see this live...it started to scratch a bit and you could see every little finger!


So tell us what you think...it is a boy or a girl??? We will have to wait until June to see if you are right!!!
