Ultrasound

We had another ultrasound today. These are known as "growth scans" because they take measurements of everything from her skull to femur. Our little girl was measuring perfectly based on her March 15th due date. Her heart rate was 149 bpm and she weighs 1 pound and 4 ounces! Wow - she is getting so big! Starting December 28th, I will be going in for twice weekly non stress tests (NST) and will be continuing to get growth scans every 6 weeks. There are some perks of being an older mom - they pay a lot more attention and I get lots of sneak peeks at my girl! Here is today's photo. This is the first profile picture we have where you can see her little nose and lips. Her arm is up and she appears to be kicking towards her face. She has been pretty calm the last 24 hours with very little movement that I have felt so it was fun to watch her kick her legs up towards her face during the ultrasound. Dave had not gone with my to the last appointment, so for the first time he got to see her adorable little feet.
