The anatomy scan was today, and baby GIRL looks perfect. We are over the moon.
She's measuring at almost exactly 19 weeks, so maybe a bit smaller than Zack, who was slightly ahead the entire pregnancy. Even though I'm planning a repeat c-section, I don't think I'll mind delivering a baby slightly smaller than 8.5 pounds!
All major organs and structures looked healthy. We are so excited and relieved! In fact, things looked so good, they don't want to see us again until early December, instead of in 4-6 weeks. If she's on track then, we might only get that one peek at her before her arrival. Speaking of her arrival, they're currently planning to let me go the full 39-40 weeks. Aaack! I was hoping to be halfway done today. Perhaps she'll decide on her own to make her debut closer to 38 weeks. If you're keeping track, I think the doc only mentioned my age twice today.
And here's the mama, yesterday evening after teaching (hence the very tired), at 18 weeks, 6 days. I'm guessing I'm still running about four weeks ahead of my belly size with Zack. This looks much more like I did at 22-23 weeks last time, even though the baby is measuring a bit smaller!
