A peek at baby

The ultrasound today was so great! It was amazing to see baby getting so big - they said baby weighs 13 oz - and to see all its parts. The technician and doc said all looks good, the brain, the heart, all the fingers and toes. You can see the little hand by its face which baby was opening and closing for us, maybe waving a little hello :)
I happen to think baby has a cute button nose and still think its a boy. Jim has been thinking baby is a girl but after the ultrasound isn't so sure. They were able to determine the gender no problem, though we chose not to find out - apparently 90% of people do find out! The technician also said my placenta is at the top of my uterus vs. the bottom which helps explain why I may not be feeling baby as much because this is an extra layer that the little kicks/pushes need to get through. The baby is on the right side of my belly which makes sense as some of what I think were movements were on that side. And, oddly enough, I have been feeling things throughout the day on the right side. As long as things keep progressing without problems, we won't see baby again until we meet in person. Long time to wait but getting that peek today was awesome.
