We just got back from my 32-week ultrasound this morning and all indications are that Baby boy D is right on track! His growth, heartbeat, major body parts (head, brain, limbs, internal organs) are right on target for his gestation. He weighs 4 lbs 8 oz right now (4.5 lbs), which is exactly where he should be. If he arrives on time at average weight, the guesstimate is that he'll be anywhere from 7-8 lbs. Due date is still between Sept 12-13.
The ultrasound was really cool this week! We were able to see a close up of his face--he has chubby cheeks already and hair on his head! We both thought at that moment, "this is definitely our kid" :-) We also got to see his heart close up, see how big is femur is, etc. It was absolutely amazing how much they can see/tell from an ultrasound.
This shot is confirmation that it's a boy:
This short is a profile of him sucking his thumb. Sorry you can't really see much. It was much better live than the picture.

Cool! Fetus porn! :)
Does "baby D" mean you have a name? And it starts with D?
I think the D refers to their last name, but I could be wrong. ;)
Happy to hear that all is well. So neat to see the pics (even if I can't tell what's going on in them. Apparently, Arvay can!)
Hugs to you and M! =)
The first pic is fetus porn, if Arvay insists :-) the second is just him sucking his thumb, profile shot.
Yes, D just refers to last name. we have no name yet. :-)
