This morning we had our second glimpse of little Junior. After getting the images that were missed last time when he was being "difficult", the ultrasound technician used the 3D ultrasound show us some nice face shots. The photos look a little strange (or "like potato salad losing a fight against chicken and dumplings," as Jeff so eloquently puts it!), but it's still so incredible to see a real face!

The tech confirmed for us again that Junior is definitely Junior and not Juniorette. His measurements put him at 22 weeks, 3 days which is means his measured due date is still December 25th, same as the last ultrasound. We got to see and hear his heart beating and it's a little lower than last week - 143 bpm. As she was finishing up her report, I noticed on the screen that the measurements should equate to a weight of 1 pound, 3 ounces. I can't believe such a big guy is in there! No wonder I've been uncomfortable for the past week. He's growing so fast!

That's the last medical update until September 14th when I have my next checkup and some not-so-fun tests done. As long as Junior continues to look healthy, though, it'll be worth it!
