ultrasound

I had an ultrasound today because when I was at the Doctor on 3/17 the CNM, George, thought that I was measuring bigger then he would have liked. At that time I was measuring at about 27 weeks which was about 2 1/2 weeks big. Today everything went very well today, it was amazing to see all the little parts.

We saw al lthe fingers and toes, spine, brain, heart, stomach and the legs. The kid was very cooperative with not letting us see what he or she is--I was glad that we didn't have to look away. The heart rate was at 137 which is lower than when we listened a couple of weeks ago and the technician estimates the weight to be at about 2 1/2 pounds. My date has not been changed because I am not measuring more than 2 weeks too big, the ultrasound says that i am at 27 weeks today which is only about 4 or 5 days off at this point--so July 2nd is still the target. That seems really far away but then next few months will go fast since we haven't really done any work on the nursrey yet. We are both jsut so happy that everything is going well.
