We went on December 28th before we jetted off to Florida for our 20 week Anatomy Scan. I'm actually only 20 weeks now but that's just what they call it. Anyway, I was so excited to see the little peanut again, but to also have more reassurance that everything is developing as it should be. I'm happy to report that is all is GREAT! I mean of course, as the doctor, told us, nothing is 100%, but he was very happy with what he saw - beautiful baby as they told us! The baby was measuring to be due on May 26th, so I'm sticking with my "end of May" due date, since I have heard everything from May 24th - May 28th.
I have started feeling the baby more and more and Andy actually felt the baby kick for the first time last week while we were away. I tried to get Em to also feel it but her attention span to the subject is lacking and she didn't have the patience to sit there. I guess we'll have to wait until the kicks and punches are more apparent. She did put her hand on my belly for 2 seconds, say Hi baby, give him/her a tickle and then run off. At least she is grasping the concept a little bit more. She actually asks me about every few days if the baby in my tummy is gone yet and I keep explaining when the baby is gone from my belly that he/she will live with us, this usually results in a blank stare! She also keeps referring to the baby as her sister, which I hope doesn't result in disappointment if it happens to be a boy, but we'll deal with that when and if the time comes.
My belly at 19.5 weeks!
