3rd Ultrasound

On Wednesday, April 22, we had our third ultrasound. It was glorious (as my friend Marti would say)! In our first ultrasound, our little boy weighed approximately 2 ounces more than our little girl. Then, during our second ultrasound, our little girl weighed approximately 2 ounces more than our little boy. This time, however, each baby weighed the same amount at approximately 4lbs and 3 ounces (that's 8lbs 6 ounces total!). We're really happy that they're both growing at the same pace.

As with every ultrasound, we tried to get a profile and/or face view of both babes. Unfortunately, we still were not able to get a clear ultrasound snapshot of our little girl's face. But, we were definitely able to see our little boy's face and profile rather clearly- especially when the 3D-4D wand was used. In fact, during the ultrasound, our baby boy was seen kissing his sister's head repeatedly. It was incredibly adorable.

At this point, everything else looks good. No swelling, no cramping, no braxton-hicks contractions. I'm gaining the right amount of weight and my blood pressure has been the same for my last three visits. It's all a matter of time now...
