Little Alien-36 weeks

31w5d

Here is the unexciting face profile pic from yesterday. I was so pleased with my 2nd dr's ultrasound photo skills! Unfortunately I won't be seeing her again, because she specializes in other things and has passed me on to her colleague.
Everything was in order at my appointment! They estimate that the baby weights 2.84kg or 6.25lbs. I was surprised to hear that, but am not going to fully expect that it will be that big. It was also measuring 5-6 days earlier, but again, I am not going to count on that.Here are some adorable gifts the baby received this week!!!

26/27 weeks *warning* long post

"Us 3"

I would like to frame some of these photos. We went to the beach in Nederland with the family. 25.5 weeks

Wearing all 'normal' clothes. I love the skirt mom sent!

Everything is still going good. I went to the doctor yesterday and everything was fine. It was a new doctor that neither of us really liked. She did not have much personality and did not explain much. Last time the ultrasound was fascinating, because we could see so many details, this time we were lost. It was mainly FUZZ! Only one time could we clearly see an arm and hand. One thing was a little strange. She said I needed to do another urine test, because sometimes there can be an infection without symptoms. While I was in the bathroom, my hubby asked the woman doing the test if this was normal and she said, 'no' and that maybe the doctor saw something? I will know if the lab calls that something is up.

Only ultrasound photo. Nearly 27 weeks. Baby is looking to the right.The baby's room is almost done. Hubby FINALLY sorted through his stuff in there. We threw away a black garbage back of junk and have 3 full banana boxes for the container park. It is nearly ready for our guests and then the baby (and GRANDMA!).

I did my measurements and was happy with them. I am nearly the same everywhere, except my belly of course. I seem to have quite a stomach, but I think the whole extra 6.5 kilos are deposited there.

I was thinking that I am not really having cravings, but the one thing I LOVE is tuna sandwiches. I have always liked them, but I think I have had one every day for the past 2 weeks. A plus is that it takes a few seconds to make one. Pre-sliced bread, pre-made tuna salad, pre-sliced pickles and hopefully fresh sprouts. Yum! I also have had cornflakes with sliced banana and 2 Splendas nearly every day this week.

Ultrasound Photos

Here are the latest ultrasound photos: The ones on the left are it's face looking out, the top right is the circumference of it's head and the bottom right one is it's whole leg and foot. If you read the little writing on each picture the EDD is the estimated date of arrival based on measurements. Everything was measuring in the 22nd week. Today I am 23 weeks!

17+ Weeks

Here's the latest photos, but they are only of the face. I think because I said I don't want to find out what it is. The bottom one shows it's heartrate, which I thought was pretty cool. The hubby was along for the appointment this time. I'm glad he was there. He filmed the ultrasound for my mom and sister :-) My due date is back closer to what I originally thought. July 21 (the Belgian national holiday), so what I saw on the screen yesterday was that I was 17 weeks and 5 days, so tomorrow is 18 weeks!

13 Week Photo

The hubby says the baby looks like me when I was that age ;-)
