It’s A Boy!

Well, it looks like what we thought we saw on the 12 week ultrasound was indeed there because today we got confirmation that Baby#3 is a boy!

001 - CopyI love this view because you can see the chambers of his heart.  I don’t think I’ve had a profile view with such a good heart view in the past.

001 - Copy (2)A boy, see?

Going back to the fact that I like the top view, Jacob and I particularly enjoyed seeing the focused heart views with all 4 chambers visible at once.  Maybe I just have a mental block, but I don’t remember seeing that previously and I think it is just such a testament to how awesome our God is.  It was so clear, functional, and perfect, yet tiny compared to any of my patients.  He measured out to be right on track at 20 weeks, making him about 13 oz, so to see the heart so clearly on ultrasound is impressive to me.  Maybe it’s just the Mom in me.

Now, what to name him…I guess Josiah’s vote of Valerie is off the table!

I have been very absent from my blog reading and thus didn't know you were expecting. Hooray and Congrats! We have been pregnant at the same time twice, and might be again if we weren't in the middle of a huge life changing move :). I'll keep reading up on you now. Blessings now and always!
