It's a…..

It’s a………healthy baby!  We stuck with our gut feelings and went into the sonogram today with our game faces on:)  When the opportunity came to find out the sex of the baby, Matt and I turned away and kept it a surprise!  It was pretty tough to not turn around in the moment but now that the experience is over I think it will be easier to not think about it!  We really look forward to finding out what we are having when she/he is delivered.  What a great surprise it will be! 

The sonogram was really incredible.  We got to see the baby in 2D, 3D, and 4D (the 4th dimension is real time).  According to the technician and the doctor everything looks great!  They said that the baby is measuring around 19 weeks but that could give or take a few days because it isn’t precise.  I will find out if the due date will change at my next appointment in 2 weeks.  As for now we are sticking with April 19th!  We got to see the blood flow in the umbilical cord, the heart beating, kidneys, and the brain.  Baby Fraz was moving their right arm a lot and bringing it to the face.  The left hand stayed somewhat under the chin.  I don’t have a scanner so I took pictures of some of the sonogram pictures.  Hope you enjoy seeing Baby Fraz!

It really is amazing what they can do/see with these sonograms!  We are so happy that things look good and are looking forward to a few months from now when we get to meet our little Baby Fraz in person! 

Until Next time…
