I'm a little behind on the blog again because we have been go-go-go! But I'm trying to play catch-up little by little, so bear with me as I try and post all of our updates!!

Ultrasound pictures

I finally got a chance to sit down and scan in all the ultrasound pics we've gotten throughout this pregnancy.  I'll start with the first pictures we got of the little bean and work my way towards the most recent.
March 5th:  6 weeks 6 days
This was the first peek we got at the baby.  Amazing to see a heartbeat on 
something the size of a blueberry! 
March 26th:  9 weeks 6 days
Look at how much he/she has grown!  Looks more like a gummy bear and little arm and leg buds have started to form.  We could see the little one wiggling around in there.
April 12th:  12 weeks 2 days
This was at our NT scan.  The NT measurement was within normal range, the nasal bone was present and combined with my blood test; our results came back fine with no increased risks.  The baby had its hands clasped right by its face like he/she was praying.  This was the first time we got to hear the heartbeat and the baby was about the size of a plum.
Here is another picture from the same day, but in 3d.  Which at this age makes the baby kind of look like an alien baby!
April 19th:  13 weeks 2 days
Baby was about the size of a peach
 May 24th:  18 weeks 2 days
Baby measured 8 ounces.  We saw the brain, nose, mouth, eye sockets, all 4 chambers of the heart, spine, kidneys, stomach, bladder and all ten fingers and ten toes!  And everything looked and measured on track!  I also started to {for sure} feel the baby kick a few days earlier!

So there you have it...all the scans we've had thus far!  I do know we have one more scheduled for the end of June and then we usually have a quick peek towards the end of the pregnancy to get a size guesstimate.
