22 Week Ultrasound

We got to have an extra ultrasound today.  When we went for our 20 week anatomy scan, the ultrasound tech expressed some concern that she couldn't see Maxwell's stomach.  So she had the doctor come in and take a look and she was unable to locate it as well.  She told us that we shouldn't worry, that it was most likely due to him just having emptied his bladder, but just to be sure she wanted to see us back in 2 weeks.  So of course I've been a little on edge the past 2 weeks, but I did a pretty good job trying not to think about it because she said the chance of him having a problem like his esophagus not connecting to his stomach or him not having a stomach was VERY rare.  Thankfully, we were reassured today that he in fact does have a stomach and it was full today.  So everything is normal and progressing as it should be!

Mr. Maxwell

It's A.....

BOY!!!

2 1/2 hours

I've been up this morning since about 4am because I couldn't sleep due to the excitement of finding out the sex of Baby Nichols.  Stay tuned for a post around 11ish when I get home!

17 Days

...Until we find out if we have a little boy or a little girl brewing in there!  I'm curious to know what everyone thinks I'm having.  So vote on the right before January 16th!

Baby Nichols 12 Weeks

We have decided not to announce the pregnancy quite yet on facebook and whatnot.  Originally, we were going to today, but since we get the results from our tests today (for Downs Syndrome & Spina Bifida) in 8-10 days, we're just going to wait until then.

1st Ultrasound

And there's only one pea in my pod!  Yay!  The ultrasound puts me at 6weeks1day, but I still think that's a day behind.  We also got to hear and see the heartbeat!  So cool!
