Another ultrasound! I absolutely love these! And I feel so blessed that bc my awesome family helping out by paying for them, we have been able to get so many. It is strange to see how little Baby Moore grows from week to week! This is her fourth set of pictures, and her final set will be in April. These pictures were taken on Wednesday February 17th, 2010.
This set of ultrasound pics was to measure her body, and make sure everything is going good with her growth.
She was a feisty little baby. Still had the cord between her legs, but the lady said she is pretty sure baby Moore is still a girl. She also raised her fist at us all and punched the air several times, and the lady got it in the pictures!!
Baby Moore at this time weighed 15 ounces [according to my book, the average is 10! Wow] and was 20 cm in length. She has all her fingers, toes, and bones, and everything looks good. Her heart rate was 145. Her position is feet up into my ribs [oh the joy of when she starts kicking], and head down. The lady said she probably won't stay that way though bc babies like to move a lot.
I had a doctor's apt one week later to discuss the ultrasound with the doctor. So I was 22 weeks and 1 day at this apt. Which was yesterday. My blood pressure is 110 over 64, which is good, and on the lower end of pregnancy. According to my count, I have now gained 10 pounds during this pregnancy. They weighed me in at 7 though. I think the reason is because Sunday night, I got a stomach bug, that had me vomiting and not eating anything until Tuesday morning of the doctor's apt. So it makes sense I would have dropped a bit. My uterus is 22 cm long [which is exactly where it is supposed to be], and I learned something new. My uterus is in an interior position. Which means I will not be able to feel her moving constantly for another week. It's not abnormal, it's just the way some are. So it's nothing to worry about. I have felt a few bumps in there, but they are not constant at all.
I was feeling this strange pulsing constantly, and you can actually see it on my stomach. Turns out that is actually my blood flowing. Strangest thing. But I'm glad it isn't the baby moving, bc it is a sick nasty feeling, and I was not looking forward to feeling that more and more.
I haven't taken any pictures for week 22 belly. I was just to sick, and I am barely getting my groove back on. However... in the next post, I do have some entertaining new pictures from last night and this morning. Until then, enjoy Baby Moore fist pumping it up!
