Latest Baby Pictures - Feb 16th

Our latest doctors appointment was on February 16th - another opportunity to check on the progress and growth of baby civale. This time, Amy's Mom, Dad and nephew Logan were able to join to see the live action. So, the whole crew piled into the room, Amy jumped on the table and we all awaited the doctor. Logan was very excited, sitting on Uncle Anthony's lap staring at the screen waiting for the action. He wasn't disappointed - the woman came in, put sticky fluid on Auntie Amy's belly and then the images started to pop up on the screen. We all got a good tour of the baby's body - top of the head, stomach, thigh bond, profile, etc. The doctor reported that everything was progressing perfectly. Baby C is 5 pounds already and if he continues his normal growth pattern would be 8 pounds "at term" at 40 weeks. His heartrate was good at 154 beats per minute. Just 6 weeks until Amy's due date - CRAZY!

Here are the latest pictures. It was fun for both Amy and Anthony to see the excitement of others watching the ultrasound live!

This was the baby's heartrate readout.




Here, the baby is looking right at the camera, so you can see both his eyes, nose, lips, etc.



More profile pictures from the side - the bottom few you can see his arm and hand that he's holding near his face.






We can't wait to meet him soon!

I see cheeks! Looks like he might have some nice plump ones like his cousin Luke. Did Logan ask to be present at the birth?
