Week 16!!
Wow so that’s 4 months done. Mira is feeling great, other than the usual tiredness. We finally had a Dating ultrasound checkup on March 9th and all is well, picture below, dating is as it should be based on Mira’s LMP. We go in for a more detailed ultrsound next month. So far so good, Mira has some more Folic Acid to take daily plus the Materna® she takes.
“Your baby is now about the size of an avocado (about 5 inches / 11.6 centimetres long from crown to rump and weighing approximately 4 ounces / 100 grams). In the next three weeks he’ll go through a tremendous growth spurt, doubling his weight and adding inches to his length.” Read more here.
Next ultrasound will be exciting, we can find out if it’s a boy or a girl. Most of the family wants it to be a surprise, but I want to know haha!!  Mira wants to know now too I think. We will know what we want when the time comes, till then we are still coming up with boy and girl names. If you have any ideas leave a comment with your choice but remember, only names starting with S, P, K and M will be considered haha!!!

I don’t know about you Paul, but I could never make head or tail out of an ultrasound. Have you tried getting a 3D full color ultrasound yet? Ask your doctor about them.
