Still a Boy

I headed over to try and see our boy's face again today. It had been about a month since the last ultrasound. We still didn't get excellent shots unfortunately, but on a positive note...I get to go back AGAIN! How awesome is that? The technician seems to think that when he goes to the head down position we should be able to get some better pics.

Apparently, my placenta is attached at the very top of the uterus, which is where he likes to hang out. That means he gets both the placenta and umbilical cord in his face a lot. In addition to that...he likes to fold up like a pretzel and often has his legs stretched straight up over his head! So basically, the place where many times I feel strong kicks is where he has both his head AND feet! Maybe even hands too!

Baby Boy has definately grown and filled out in the last month. Even though the pictures didn't turn out all that clear, I was able to see on the video some glimpses of what he really looks like and let me tell you...(maybe I am a little biased) he's ADORABLE! He's got chubby cheeks, a sweet mouth and a button nose. I know you say...what baby doesn't!? :) Anyway...I hope you enjoy these quick shots of our little sweetie!

Here's what I look like today...bigger than a week ago, huh?


Fist in face


All folded up In case you can't get the perception...to the left of the screen is a leg and foot sticking up. In the center is an arm and fist and then the facial profile on the right.
