Ultrasound results.

So after finding out we were having a boy I sat down and talked with my Nurse Practitioner about my 19-week ultrasound. Baby is perfectly healthy and is actually measuring big, which pushes my due date up to January 18 instead of January 22. One thing that they did see was that my umbilical cord is a two vessel umbilical cord, which is a single artery (Single Umbilical Artery) rather than two. The artery that feeds the baby, (the vein gives the baby it's blood supply) is missing one vessel. Good news is that baby is growing ad is big for his age (I knew I was going to have a big baby), he defiantly is getting his nutrients!I have to follow up with my Doctor and another ultrasound. I have been doing research on my own and the chance of delivering a healthy  baby is high so that made me feel a bit more at ease. Still, can't help but worry some.

Drum roll please.....

Okay, so it has been awhile since I have posted anything one here. Last Tuesday August 28, 2012 we had an ultrasound that determined the gender of our baby. We are having a Boy! Jacob and I couldn't be more excited. :)
