110% Girl

She's a Lady!

Yesterday was my 20-week anatomy scan appointment at the specialist's office. It was a morning appointment, which I like because I get to see baby sooner, but that means Daddy won't be there. The ultrasound technician immediately identified the female parts and said , "It's definitely a girl! 110% positive." It was nice to have that confirmation! I was sad Nick couldn't be there because I know he would have enjoyed this visit.

She took measurements of all parts of the anatomy. She showed me the 4 chambers of the heart, the stomach, two kidneys, hands and feet with fingers and toes, a nasal bone, femur, umbilical cord artery and veins, and a sweet little face-in-the making. I enjoyed seeing her open and close her mouth. Today the baby weighs 12 ounces and will be a pound by the end of the week. She said that in the next 4-6 weeks, the baby will double in size. This appointment was a success-everything appears to be healthy and going strong for our little princess. Now, she needs a name!
