Week 12 Sonogram & Integrated Screening

We had an appointment this morning to begin the integrated screening that checks for Down's syndrome and several other genetic diseases. The first test (neck skin fold) came out normal which is a great sign. We also got to see the peanut again and saw it jumping around, doing loops, waving etc. It was fun to see... it looked like it was having fun in there. We also saw and heard(!!) the heart rate (beating at a calm 162 beats per minute.) CPMC also had the 4D ultrasound which was very cool to see - we got pictures of all and shown below. It is now starting to look a less like a peanut and more like a big-headed gummy bear! The updated due date is December 30th... I guess that means no Bali or Rio for New Years this year. With the crossing of the 12 week mark we will also now make this blog public. Yah! (Note: Clicking on any of the pictures pulls them up full-size)
