The Ultrasound (2)

We had the ultrasound yesterday for Winebaby 2. Everything looked very good - all limbs, organs, and other body parts seem to be present! The baby is right on track for growth - 20 weeks and 5 days. S/he weighs 13 oz, which is one more oz than Henry weighed at this point. The baby's nose and mouth appear to look so much like Henry's to me. S/he was moving around nearly the whole time, so we got many good views.

We are waiting to find out the baby's sex again. We both kind of have a feeling that it is a boy, but the older brother still insists that he's having a little sister.

Earlier in this pregnancy an ultrasound showed a "band" on my uterus. The doctor wasn't really sure what to make of it, but happily there wasn't any evidence that it was still there this time. For sure, do not google bands on uterus... it doesn't lead to anything positive. My blood pressure was high, so high that I will be going back in 2 weeks instead of 4. The funny part is that if I stress about this, it makes the condition worse. So I have to try to stay calm. I also got the H1N1 vaccine. So controversial. I'm hoping its the right choice, provided the information that we have right now. We also learned that as of right now, siblings under 5 are not allowed to visit at the hospital which will be a bummer in March if that is still holding true.

We got some great pics!
