Alyssa and I went to check on our little brother and all is good. We did the AFP screening and results should be back in 1-2 weeks. Dr. Graven used the dopplar to hear the heart beat and she asked Alyssa if she hears the heartbeat and Alyssa said that all she heard is noise. In her defense, it is pretty staticky (sp) unless you know what you are listening for and apparently Alyssa does not. I weighed Alyssa and she still weighs 32 pounds and in fact, might have dropped a little bit considering she had all her clothes on.
A little update on Baby Hunt. He is about 5 ounces and around 7 inches long. Our scan last week showed a perfect little baby where he was crossing his legs and rubbing his forehead and possibly sucking his thumb. It seems so strange to think that that little guy that we saw doing all the sumersaults and twists is only 7 inches. He has about 14 inches to go! His sense of hearing is developing which means Alyssa and I have to refrain from calling him a 'her'. I did buy him a blue blanket though!
Our next appt is January 10th and it is the big one. They are going to tell us what his measurements are and what they expect him to be at birth, in terms of size. They were 14 ounces off with Alyssa so I am quite interested. I really don't think I will have another big one considering how small I am. In fact, my Doctor said that she hopes to see me showing at the next appt. So do I!
