My Three Kids: A Comparison

Today I had my third OB appointment!  I had just seen my doctor right before Thanksgiving, but I needed to do the Quad Screen so I went back today.  When my OB walked in, she said "Want to take a little peak at this baby today?"  I almost squealed!  I was sooooo excited!  Of course, as soon as I got giddy, I also thought "Oh, no!  What if she suspects something is wrong?  What if the heartbeat didn't sound good so she wanted to take a closer look?"  But no, she just wanted to spoil me!

Our little one was a mover and a shaker which was so fun to see!  She was finally able to get a decent picture to print for me, but it wasn't easy.  This baby likes to MOVE it, MOVE it!

I have a friend who didn't find out what her third was, but was convinced it was a girl because the third one's profile looked so much like her daughter's.  She was right!  She did have a girl!

Soooo.... as soon as I got home today, I pulled out Finley and Jude's ultrasound pictures to compare and see if I could figure out whether we were having a girl or a boy.  Which by the way, my OB asked if I wanted to find out, but I said no.  I can't imagine finding out without Devin!


My OB did a sonogram today and these pictures of Finley and Jude are their ultrasound pictures so they are a little more clear.  Also, they were older than C3 so they had filled out more.  I can't wait to see how much C3 changes between now and our actual ultrasound.

Either all babies look pretty much the same in an ultrasound picture or all of my kids are going to look just alike! I think Finley and Jude have very similar profiles.  C3 seems to have a more prominent chin, but could be just because he/she hasn't put on as much fat.  Regardless, this comparison does nothing to help me determine the gender of C3! =)

Seeing our little one today made me so excited for May!  I'm caught in the middle of wanting to savor each minute and wanting each minute to hurry by so that I can meet this sweet pea!
