20 weeks today, we are half way there to seeing our little girl! The tech was great and was able to show us all the parts of our healthy baby. We saw all 4 chamber of her heart, fingers, toes, bladder, kidneys...you name it we saw it. She is stubborn like her dad, she was curled up in a little ball (she must have learned that from Barney) for most of it. Overall we are relived that everything looks good and excited for a little girl. Now we just have to think of a name, and a nursery idea, and only 100 other little things yikes! Still no more kicks :( I will get some belly photos up maybe this weekend as well as the house pics and some cute ones of the boys.
Baby Center Update:
Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. She's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, she's measured from head to toe.)
She's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for her digestive system. She's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in her bowels, and you'll see it in her first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
