Ultrasound/check up

We had another check up last week with an ultrasound this time! They wanted to check the baby's growth since the two fibroids I have were making my belly measure big. Matt came with me and it was so fun to get a glimpse at our baby again. He is measuring in the 73 percentile for growth which is great, about 4lbs, 10 oz they estimate. They checked a lot of different things but all looks good.
Here are some photos- he was butt down with his feet up by his head and both arms wrapped around his head, all scrunched up so kinda hard to get the clearest of photos. Our scanner is also being weird so I took these with my phone. At least it's something!

baby boy!

We had the much-anticipated mid-pregnancy ultrasound appointment on June 22nd. We were so excited and anxious to get a look at our baby and find out if we were having a boy or girl! Our ultrasound technician was great, she explained what we were looking at and that everything looked totally normal (phew!). She saved the big news for the very end. I was shocked! Somehow I had convinced myself we were having a girl. We are both totally thrilled though and the vision of our family just became a little more clear:)

We had a follow-up appointment with our midwife right afterwards and she confirmed that everything looked great and his growth is right on track, I think she said 54th percentile. Now that we know we're having a boy we get to think about fun things like names and our registries!
