New ultrasound – it’s a ______!!

Darren — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 06:37:03 +0000

Click here for our latest ultrasound pics, with our son showing off his goods. Here’s the cutest pic of the bunch:

Also, we thought it would be fun to have people take guesses on our son’s vital stats – birth date, weight, length, etc. Head over to TGC Baby Pool and take a shot at fortune and glory! We’re getting you halfway there by telling you that it’s a boy, the rest is up to you to figure out…

Site problems

Due to a mandatory security upgrade, some parts of this site might look funny, or be down completely. I’m working to correct any issues that might remain.

Second ultrasound

Here’s my favorite pic from the second ultrasound:

You can see legs!!!!
Unfortunately, we weren’t able to get a printout of the coolest thing we saw during the ultrasound, which was our baby sucking his/her thumb. It’s amazing that even at that small size, things are so proportional. Well, aside from that giant noggin.

The rest of the pics (just five others) can be seen here

Baby Timeline so far

Lindsay — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:53:44 +0000

This is more for my reference than anything, but I wanted to write down all the “milestone” dates so far.

January 24 – Last period

February 6 – Conception (?)
February 21 – Peed on a stick…yay! It was positive!
February 22 – Told our parents and brothers (we swore we could last a month at least, we barely lasted a day)

March 24 – First prenatal appt (finally! That was an excruciating month-long wait). They took 13 vials of blood and all was healthy.
March 26 – First ultrasound (I kinda fibbed and said I didn’t know when my last period was since they don’t typically do an ultrasound this early except for dating. I’m glad I lied, though!)

April 17 – Heard heartbeat for the first time.
April 21 – First trimester screening, second ultrasound. They took more blood and again everything is healthy!
April 22 – Second prenatal appt – met my doctor and heard the heartbeat again. 153 bpm!
April 28 – By now pretty much everyone we know knows the good news! Start saving your old baby stuff!

May 21 – Third prenatal appt scheduled

So far that’s all I know. I will update as things happen now that we can be “out” with this information.

Looking Good…

Last Monday we went for the first trimester screening (Nuchal Translucency test) in which they do an ultrasound to measure the amount of fluid in the back of the baby’s neck and the flatness of the nose. They also do a blood test to check for chromosomal abnormalities. Prior to this test, they base your risk on your age. So our baby had a 1 in 700 chance of having Down Syndrome (trisomy 21) and a 1 in 1300 chance of having Trisomy 18 or 13 which are rarer and more serious. Yesterday, I got a call from the hospital telling me that since the ultrasound and blood test results came back, our chances are now 1 in > 10,000 for both Down Syndrome and trisomy 18 or 13. Great news! Now we just have to be patient until the beginning of June for the next ultrasound to see if we’re having a boy or a girl.

Oh, and the ultrasound pics from last week SHOULD be up soon (hint, hint….Darren).

My boys can swim!!
