22 week, 2 day Ultrasound

Superbaby is doing great! We saw him yesterday... he was kicking his feet together and opening his mouth. It was amazing man I swear.

We had a quick ultrasound without getting a DVD this time as Dr. K used a machine they just use for IVF transfer measurements, not hooked up for recording I guess. We had to wait almost two hours, then when we went into the exam room/office, Dr. K had to leave to deliver twins. They were two girls, naturally conceived and it took all of 15 minutes! We did not mind waiting for that.

Dr. K explained to us as he always does, what we were seeing, the organs, the 4 chamber view of Superbabys heart, fingers toes etc. Next ultrasound he will do a detailed scan of his heart. But said all is looking good so far, what a relief. Super S was so excited this time, not that he isn't always, but I think as Superbaby is beginning to look more like a person, it amazes him. He said I just can't believe it, I was like I know, me too baby.

So I am feeling good and so, so, so happy that our little guy is hanging in there and doing good. You know we have waited 12 years for him...

I said yesterday I want to feel him kicking, well he heard me I guess, as I feel alot of movement today. Earlier this morning, I was feeling my stomach and watching it and I saw him move, beyond amazing!

So all is good in Superbaby land, just wanted to let you know. Next ultrasound will be around 26 weeks.

  1. Wishy, this post just brought me to tears. One thing that I have always loved most about you is your undying optimism, hope, and energy. I know you may not have felt all of those things all the time, but when I think of you, that's what I think of. I am just so thrilled that I get to experience this pregnancy with you! Well, y'know - as much as one can experience someone else's pregnancy through a blog! :)

  8. Hooray for Superbaby! (I swear, if that little guy is born wearing a cape, I would not be surprised) I am so glad that you had a great peak at him and that all is well!

  9. Glad to hear that all is well! Carry on with the uneventful pregnancy part, please. And the kicking - it's so cool/weird/fascinating. Until he plants those feet in your ribs. Then it's just unpleasant/cool/weird.

  12. Holy moly - 22 weeks - time is really skidding by (though maybe not so much from your point of view!!) - that is such wonderful news about SuperBaby - it is so exciting to feel movement isn't it - I just love it, it never gets old - although JBB gave me a good kick under the ribs yesterday - I appreciated the movement but it was a bit ouchie!! I can understand Super S's feelings, I find it very hard to believe as well!! All the best!

  19. 22 weeks! (well 23 now I guess) how fantastic, I can't believe how time is flying. I'm so glad to read that your little man is hanging in there, how amazing is it to feel him moving around? We started playing music to my belly around 24 weeks, I'd sit with headphones on my tummy and we'd feel D move around - later on we'd watch my belly dance as he rolled with the music - so awesome.
