18 Week Sono

We had the 18 week ultrasound on Monday. It was absolutely amazing!! I knew the sono tech from NICU so he was being extra picky for me! Being a NICU nurse there were a few things that I was extra nervous about and he made sure he covered them and showed me to prove it more than once! He was pretty shocked that we didn't want to know the sex, so he went ahead a printed a picture of it, in case we changed our mind. He said it was crazy when people didn't want to know the sex because that's what most people care about at that point. No one seems to worry about what's going on behind the scenes so he said it was nice to have some patients that actually just wanted to know that everything was cooking just right! Baby Gerber weighs about 8oz. and is measuring exactly 18 weeks. Heartrate 154. At the beginning he said my placenta was low which could mean previa so I was freaking out. But at the end I asked him to check it again since my bladder was full and he said that it looked fine. And I shouldn't have anything to worry about! We are so thankful that everything looks good as of right now. It is such a blessing that we have not had problems thus far, hopefully the luck continues. I will get the pictures up soon, hopefully after I sleep today!
