I was a little distracted last nite when I wrote the entry so here are a few more details I forgot to put in. Our Baby weighs in at 11.07 ounces right now and is approximately 10 inches long from head to toe. It was hard to get that measurement since the peanut was moving around so much and then when it did hold still it was all curled up. I know some of you are using old wives tales to try to figure out if it's a blue or pink...the heart rate ws 139. (according to my sister, that means BOY) The placenta is in a great place so no concerns about placents previa.
We also got to see the eyes move yesterday! It was soo cool! The eyelids are still shut, but because the skin is still so thin it was easy to see the lens of the eye and to watch it move around as Baby appeared to be practicing looking around. Also, the umbilical cord is looking great with the 3 vessels and it's pumping superbly. We got to hear the pulse in the umbilical cord and see the blood imaging. It was nice to see that part being healthy as that is how all nutrition and oxygen is getting to Baby. We are officially at 20 weeks, 1/2 way to meeting our child!
And I WAS WRONG ABOUT the fibroid, it is a little SMALLER than the last ultrasound!!! At 15 weeks it was 2.25" x 1.53" x 1.8" yesterday it was 1.5" x 1.3" x 1.5"! I am ecstatic!! It's still on the outside of the uterus and is not encroaching on Baby. Truly a miracle!!! Please pray that I continue to have the strength to eat properly for Baby and me. It's hard sometimes to change such old habits, but ooohhh soooooo worth it! And thank you for all your prayers and encouragement!
