18 Weeks and Counting

Today Mike and I went to our 18 week appointment for Wee Weber where the radiologist performed an anatomy scan. That's where they took us on a journey of baby's body from head to toes.

It was really precious to see Wee moving its mouth, hands and little legs. There was a healthy heartbeat of 155 times a minute. Baby was so active! I can hardly wait until I can feel it turning, flipping and dancing. It should be any day now. From what I have read 18-21 weeks is when moms can start feeling their munchkins moving.

The whole appointment took about 30 minutes and our tech was very sweet. She printed us some pictures and even did a 3D view for us which was cool. Baby was snuggled against the uterine wall with eyes closed. The hospital even gave us a cd of pictures (which I am waiting to view with Mike tonight).

We are still opting to be surprised about the gender, which wasn't too tempting to ask about since we had already decided that we are waiting. 

On Wednesday we go for a follow-up appointment where the doctor will interpret all the scans and videos taken today. In the meantime we have some fun pictures to enjoy and ga-ga over. God is good and we are excited. :)
