Official 18 Week Ultrasound & OB Visit

We had our 18 wk appointment on December 29th and in the last four weeks turns out I lost 1 lb bringing my grand total weight gained to 1 lb. The dr. isn't worried about it though. I did a blood test for the triple screen test. We got in for our 18 wk ultrasound on New Years Eve. Vincent went with us and when he saw the screen he yelled out 'that's my baby'.

The ultrasound lasted a while probably about 40 minutes. It was cool seeing all the different parts...the brain, the heart, etc. When it came to the gender, she said that she saw 3 lines which indicated girl. Shocked, I told her about the other ultrasound we got and she double checked and said that now HE was just showing it off. So he is a boy! It was crazy though because if I hadn't gotten that earlier ultrasound we would think we were having a baby girl! They gave us a cd of all the pictures and a dvd of the whole ultrasound. Here are some of our favorite pictures!
