We had our 12th ultra sound today. Here are some of the 4D pictures that we got.
This is his kissy picture... he's puckering his lips together. And of course his hand/arm/leg something is right up next to his face, as always.Here he's trying to hide his face again with his hand/arm. The ultra sound tech kept tapping my belly trying to get him to move his arm so we could get a full look at his face, but I guess he inherited Jason and my stubbornness because he refused to move. So... Jason put his head next to my belly and started talking to him. Every time Jason talks or sings to him he moves around like crazy! And it worked this time too! Only look at the pictures following this... he did move his arm, but he made an awful grumpy face. Apparently he was comfortable and sleeping and daddy disturbed him. HA HA HA
You can't tell from the picture, but he was raising and lowering his eye brows and kept puckering his lips and opening his mouth. He was doing his practice breathing and you could see the fluid going in and out of his nose.
I go back in 2 weeks for another growth ultra sound. He only weighs 4 lb. 1 oz. right now, so he's only gaining half of the weight that he's suppose to be gaining. If he's still not gaining much weight in 2 weeks, then they are doing my c-section that day (July 11th). If he is gaining weight though, then they are pushing my c-section date back to July 24th to give him some extra time to put on more weight. His heart, lungs, organs all look good and he's very healthy... just really small. The doctor said smaller babies have a harder time maintaining their body temperatures and sometimes have a harder time eating. So, hopefully he will start gaining some more weight and can stay in there for another month!
