i had another fetal appointment today and always look forward to them now ;)
today we were just checking weight, head circumference, bladder and belly and throwing in a few 3d shots of his face IF we could get it to see wyatt's cleft.
well, as you know, i have been praying and praying for a big baby. not too big like jessica simpsons child - poor thing!, but just 8 pounds would be the bomb.com.
well, i turned 33 weeks today and in my little app, it said the baby should weigh around 4.5 pounds. when we went into the room to get scanned, i asked the tech if that was right and she said probably less since i just turned 33 weeks.
UH. NO.
my big, healthy boy weighed 5 POUNDS! woo hoo!! i was beaming. he was measuring a week early (which means nothing) and was eating and emtying his bladder just fine. placenta and amniotic fluid looked great. i couldn't ask for better news.
we did see a few 3d shots but it was hard since he was so squished, it is hard. his cleft did look a little bit slanted, which dr. stevenson said can happen, so again, we can't tell much until he is born.
i go back in 3 weeks to check weight and fluid. i LOVE doing this. it is really exciting to me to see him this late in the game. imagine that? something that is so scary has ended up being pretty fun...i love the front desk girls, the techs and esp my doc....she is so wonderful.
