Jaxson in the NICU

It's a...............

BOY! That's right... 11 (or 10... since Ryan voted twice, naughty boy) of you were right! Good job. Shawn, Jaxson and I are very excited! The ultrasound today was very cool, we got to see baby G in 3D! I got a couple of pictures, but I don't have a scanner and can't share (they weren't very good anyway- kinda made him look like a guinea pig!). My Dr. said everything looks good... cervix is a good length at 3.2 cm and baby looks healthy... he's actually measuring bigger than his gestational age, which is nice! I'm 17w3d along and he was measuring 18w1d. Jaxson always measured small for his gestational age, which makes me wonder if he was earlier than we thought. Some of the NICU nurses thought he was actually a 28 or 29-weeker. Anyway, we'll just keep praying that everything continues to go very smoothly and I deliver a brawny baby boy in January! Thanks for your thoughts and prayers! :)


The following are a couple comparison pics to see how big I'm getting. The first 2 are from Jaxson's pregnancy... 17 and 19 weeks. You can see in the last 2 photos my size compares to being pregnant w/ Jaxson at 19 weeks, even though I took them yesterday! Yikes!

Congrats on another boy. I am so glad to see that everything is going well. And don't feel bad about looking bigger sooner in the pregnancy because I think it happens to everyone. But truly, you still look great! I hope that things continue to do well and we keep praying it does. Take care - Tracey
