Per my doctor's orders at this week's appointment, I went in and had an ultrasound done today to make sure everything was going well with the baby. I guess it's procedure to get this done if you go past your due date. The tech measured the amniotic fluid and made sure his diaphragm and lungs were properly practicing the "fake breathing." Everything checked out to be fine and we were done in less than 20 minutes! During the exam, we got a little glimpse of his face and saw him moving his lips and sticking out his tongue like he was sucking. Which of course he had been sucking on his hand/fingers for a bit too. Here is one of the printouts of his profile from today's ultrasound:
Tomorrow I go back in to get my blood pressure rechecked. It wasn't considered "high" at my appointment this past Monday but it's higher than it normally is so they just want to keep a close eye on things. I was also told to bring my bags "just in case." Hope to give everyone some good news in the next few days....like "He's here!" I promise - it WILL be soon!! :)
