Glucose Test & Ultrasound

We had our follow up appointment from the 2 concerns on the anatomy ultrasound this week (~26 weeks). Overall, all was PERFECT. Baby H is healthy and growing right on schedule... well, a week ahead right now :)

The kidneys were back in normal range and my placenta is no longer blocking my cervix. It was the BEST feeling hearing the Doctor share the good news.

The ultrasound tech was the same one we had weeks before and she was much nicer this time. We were watching her take all of his measurments in black and white mode... and then she said - let's take a peek at his face. All of the sudden, his sweet face was on the TV! Tripp and I were in shock almost - I didn't expect to get to see him and it was so crazy seeing his face!







During the ultrasound, she non-chalantly said "I know he's a boy because I told you he was already, but I can't find it." I was thinking UMMMMMM... that's no good. She took a peek a few minutes later and there it was! Then it disappeared again. The ultrasound tech said "He's hiding it and holding it in his hand!!" I almost died. My sweet baby boy is already messing with his penis??? SERIOUSLY. BOYS. It was hilarious. We were dying laughing. Can't wait to share that story with him later on in life.

I also had my glucose test and haven't gotten the results back yet. I will say the drink wasn't bad at all! Tasted just like orange Fanta. Hoping I passed ;)

I'm still feeling good - just getting bigger! It's harder to move in bed and put my shoes on... and I'm out of breath pretty quickly. Overall though, so incredibly thankful for how great I've felt this pregnancy. 


We made dinner reservations at Bordinos and had a yummy meal celebrating a healthy baby boy we soon get to meet :)
