*P-word talk and pictorials below*
The tech's exact description of our baby boy. As I hoped, he is happy and healthy. Heart rate is an impressive 155 and we were able to see all of his organs intact. No signs of any major malformations or defects. My cervix measured 4.1cm so maybe now I can stop fantasizing about incompetent cervix scenarios.
Today marks 19w6d and our little overachiever measured 20w2d. So, that would give me an adjusted due date of August 4. However, I'm keeping August 7 as my EDD since I know that is most accurate according to my O date. It does give me great comfort that our little man is already, for all intensive purposes, half-baked.
Our little guy was so cooperative that it only took 40 minutes total for the scan. Unlike the 3D we had just under a month ago, he wasn't shy about showing us his "masculinity". He still preferred to keep his hands near his face but we did get to see him wave to us. It was the most adorable thing I've ever seen. He never fails to tug my heartstrings.
And here are some pics I'd like to share:
Looking straight ahead - our "Skeletor" pic
Proving he belongs on Team Blue
Hiding his eyes - it's much too early for a photo shoot!
All of this chatter is giving me a headache!

Our handsome boy
And for those of you who requested a belly photo - here we are. Halfway there. Unbelievable. Thank you for holding my hand through all of this insanity and for continuing this journey alongside me. I couldn't do it without you all.
