New Baby Pic


Okay... I know I'm being obsessive, but I thought I'd pass along news and a picture from our ultrasound appointment today. Everything appears normal except for something called Hyperechoic Bowel, which is where the intestine, which normally appears gray on the ultrasound, appears a dense white color. This can be signs of some complications, but in most cases "it is a normal part of the baby's development and is not going to cause any problems." The doctor also took a guess at the baby's gender. This is not definite, but it appears that we will be having a boy. She also mentioned that based on her measurements the due date would be the 24th of May, but since it's only a guess on either doctor's part we'll just stick with the 22nd for now.


Lots of love, Karen
