Pregnancy: 19 week ultrasound
Well, we had our ultrasound this morning. The good news is that the baby is measuring great and that all the things they were able to check out are good. The real reason of the ultrasound at 19 weeks was to check on the cyst which is now 8cmx5cm which has gotten a bit bigger, or is just a different shape due to the expanding baby!
The bad news? The baby played stubborn and kept his/her legs shut tight and wouldn’t have anyone looking at the bits! Not to mention the umbilical cord was also between the legs! The doctor came in to have a look at the cyst and gave finding the gender a try. He said that he thinks he saw labia but didn’t want to say girl in case it was testicles! So, he says he is leaning towards girl but not certain at all.
More good news though is that since they want to keep an eye on the cyst size we get an ultrasound every month. The lady said that next ultrasound we may even get to look at the baby in the 3D one. Although, I find the 3D ultrasounds a bit creepy looking, it would be kind of neat to see our own baby like that.
We haven’t got the images from the scan up yet but once we do I’ll post them of course!
Now, it’s the countdown until January 5th when our next ultrasound is. Although I’m sure December is going to fly by with the holiday and all that! On to tomorrow, the doctor’s appointment where hopefully I don’t get yelled at for not having weight gain if there is none. The baby is weighing in at about 9 ounces right now! So all is well.
