Baby P3 Update

Last week we got to have our big 20 week ultrasound.  That is always an exciting and a little bit nerve-racking appointment.  Its so fun to get to see the baby again and often when you are able to find out the gender but it is also when you often find out if there is anything majorly wrong with the baby.  We thankfully got to see a healthy baby growing inside.

Like I said in a previous post, we have decided to not find out the gender this time around so this was our time to stay strong.  I told the ultrasound tech first thing that we did not want to find out so thankfully she stayed away from the money shot keeping us in the dark about the gender.

The baby looked perfectly healthy and was measuring just a couple of days ahead of our due date!  The heart rate was 141 bmp.  He/she was being a little uncooperative and wouldn't allow us to get a good picture of the face so we actually get to have another ultrasound at our next appointment in January.  This is kinda fun because we get to take another peek at our little but also a bummer because it mean I have to stay strong for another ultrasound and not find out the gender!  Oh well, I did it once so I can do it again!

Here is a pic of the baby sucking his/her thumb :D.  Can't wait to meet this little peanut!  Hard to believe we are already over half way there!!

The head is on the right and the body curves around the bottom.  You can see the little arm and hand coming up to it's mouth :D
