Little Peanut has a new due date of July 1st! We had a doctor appointment on June 10th to follow up on the cysts the baby had on his/her head- which we are happy to say that they have healed. Otherwise, the ultrasound wasn't too exciting as it's pretty packed in the belly right now- so it was difficult to make out things. Leif was fascinated by the measurements the technician was able to take- 9cm for diameter of head (just what I needed to know!), femur length is 7.3 cm and the stomach circumference 30.4 cm. The ultrasound technician also estimated that the baby's current weight is 6.5 pounds. The ultrasound did show that my amnionic fluid is on the low normal side- so doctor told me to rest and drink lots of fluid. We'll look at the fluid levels again in two weeks if the baby hasn't arrived yet. Other baby news is that Leif has installed the car seat! Hurray- my dreams of not being able to bring baby home because we didn't have car seat can now end!!! Other than this, I'm feeling good and ready to meet this little boy or girl.
