NT Results are in!

And we got the best possible result - a 1/10,000 chance of either Down's or Trisomy 18 or 13!

Hooray!

As my mom said, "Of COURSE our baby would have the best score!"

(Yes, she calls it our baby. Who am I kidding, it really is - considering this is the first grandkid on either side of our families.)

The ultrasound pics!

Ughhhhhh, bwarp.

Right now I am sincerely fighting the urge to vomit. I can't tell if it's due to the orange juice I drank this morning, the fact that I didn't eat right away when I got hungry, or if it's from the headache that I've had for 3 days.

Burping, hot flashes...it feels like it's on it's way.... urp.

Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords... savor this, their non-functional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with a head now only one third the size of the body. Intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy. (Much more convenient.)
