Update

So I had a Dr appointment yesterday and everything is still looking good. The doc told me that she wanted to do another ultrasound to make sure the baby is growing well. So I will have ANOTHER ultrasound next Friday.

I am almost into my 3rd trimester so I have to start going to the doctor ever other week!! This is a little frustrating since I have to give myself 45 min to get there and get parked but I guess that's the price you pay for delivering at a good hospital (Evergreen Hospital).

Taylin is a very active baby!! Almost every night she wakes me up around 4am because she is moving around so much! So basically I am not sleeping very well but at least I know she is doing well in there!!

We have most of the nursery done...We have all the furniture and the curtains up we just need to get some stuff on the walls to pull it all together. Once we are done with it I will post up some pictures.

More 3d pictures!!

So I had another 3d ultrasound today so I thought I would post a couple more pictures that were good from today's session.

3d Ultrasound Pictures

I had a few friends who went and got free 3d/4d ultrasounds while they were pregnant so I decided I wanted to do that to!!

There is a place in Issaquah that manufactures the ultrasound machines and they just need people to be "models" to come in so they can "tune in" the picture on the machine. So basically they just adjust the contrast and brightness and work out any software kinks while you are there but its free of cost to you which is huge because a lot of insurance plans don't cover this kind of ultrasound yet.

It was really amazing to see Taylin moving around in there!! The images were so amazing!!

The ultrasound tech told me her approx weight is 1 lb 10 oz's so in 5 weeks she has grown a lot!!

This is a picture of her arm in front of her face.



Here is a picture of her spine (They said her spine is developing really well which is really important so that was good to here)

2d (normal) Ultrasound Pictures

These shots were from the ultrasound I had at 18 weeks. During this ultrasound we found out we are having a girl. She is very healthy and we have nothing to worry about. She weighed approx. 9 ozs at this point.
