Glad to say we had another positive Dr's appointment this morning. Baby Trebrah's heartbeat was going strong, and baby seems to be doing great. We're about 16 weeks along, so right now here's what's going on with Baby:
At 4 1/2 inches long (head to bottom) and 3 1/2 ounces, your baby is about the size of an avocado. In the next three weeks, she'll go through a tremendous growth spurt, doubling her weight and adding inches to her length. Her lower limbs are much more developed now. Her head is more erect than it has been, and her eyes have moved toward the front of her head. Your baby's ears are close to their final position, too. Some of her more advanced body systems are working, including her circulatory system and urinary tract. The patterning of her scalp has begun, though her hair isn't recognizable yet. Although closed, her eyes are moving (slowly), and she's even started growing toenails. Her finger - and toenails will continue to grow throughout pregnancy, so don't be surprised if she needs them trimmed soon after birth. (From www.babycenter.com)
The article says "she" but we still don't know yet what we're having. We have an appointment on April 25th for another Ultrasound, so hopefully we'll get to find out then!

Did your mom tell you that I ran into her at the Charlotte airport? Crazy! So happy to hear about you expecting. You must be thrilled. Hope you and your hubby are well.
Love,
