30 Week Appointment and Ultrasound

The ultrasound was amazing! Mom, Dad and Andrew went...Dad surprised me! They only do 4D ultrasounds on Thursdays so Marcia wasn't able to come because she has a prior commitment! Both Mom and Dad started crying....so cute! Dad was trying to pay off Josette to tell him the gender! I told him money talks...I would find out if the price was right! ;) (We do need a college fund started for our peanut!) Gerber baby cooperated for the most part but because I am 30 weeks there aren't great pics of the hands and feet, they were constantly smashed up again the "wall"!! And his/her head is down.....getting ready to meet the world!

Everything went well at our Dr. appointment yesterday! When Dr. Shepherd sat down his first question was if we knew what we were having. Obviously we said no and he said, "I'm going to tell you right now it's a girl and will be born of Christmas Eve." I told him I didn't want to be in the hospital over Christmas and he said he would make sure I was out that day, haha! He is such a great guy! My mom loved him! Then when he was pushing around on my tummy he said, "were you a big baby?" I said yes, and he said, "uh, ya so is this one!" So at my appointment in 2 weeks they are going to do another ultrasound so that he can make a better guess at what our peanut could weigh! Then we will talk about a possible induction after that.
Crazy that we are starting to talk about delivery!!

Weight Gain since last appointment: 3lbs.
Total weight gain: 24lbs. (my goodness!!)
Heart Rate: 140's

  1. It looks like baby smiles briefly in the 3rd video down (almost at the end of the video). Super cute!

  2. Aren't those ultrasounds amazing! It seemed so surreal to me when I had mine to think that this little person was actually inside me and I could see him.
