After all the extra tests we were luckily reassured that everything looks and measures normal. It may have just been something I ate before the doctor's visit that got the baby so excited!
It was fun to have an ultrasound so late in the pregnancy. We got a great look at baby. Busy sucking on the umbilical cord and yawning. We got to see and measure the heart rate several times to confirm that everything was okay. We also got to see the lungs and the baby breath.
Here is a side profile of her face.
Met with an obstetrician the next day to review the ultrasound and everything checked out okay and on target. Baby was estimated at 7lbs, 4oz. He mentioned that her head and body measure in the norm, but that she has a large trunk! Hmmm, no more ice cream for me I guess! He felt that we are on target to have a baby about the same size as Maëlle was at birth.
Better safe than sorry, and nice to have all that extra reassurance that everything is okay with baby 2. Now back to the waiting game. Next doctor's appointment is tomorrow.
Today marks 1 week till Due Date.
