Our appointments went really well today! I was shocked to hear we are at the weekly appointment point in the pregnancy. I feel like it has gone so much faster than it did with Beckett. My blood pressure was still really low (110/70) and I'm weighing less than I was at this point with B. (I think she's burning extra calories for me with all her dance moves!)
I out a comparison of the 2 pictures to show how much baby and brother look alike! Te girl that did our ultrasound today has never done a 3D before so it isn't quite as clear, but it was amazing in person. We also had an echocardiogram so we saw unbelievable images of her heart and the miracle of our design, even at 4 pounds! The doctor said she was beautiful and that everything looked great, which was a relief. Beckett was very curious and watched carefully as they scanned my stomach and he told the doctor "baby sissy is in there" and pointed. :) He is such a sweetie and a charmer.
From Babycenter.com:
By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gainingo about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, your little one will gain a third to half of his or her birth weight during the next seven weeks as he or she fattens up for survival outside the womb. Your baby now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). The skin on your baby's body is becoming soft and smooth as he or she plumps up in preparation for birth.
