Ultrasound Today

I get to see Cayden today! I have an ultrasound at 2pm. I am so excited. It's been a really long time since I've had an ultrasound--like two months.

I can't wait to see how much he's grown and changed over the past weeks. I am particularly interested to see how much he weighs. Chad and I have a bet going on about his weight.

I am guessing he weighs 5 and 1/4 pounds. Chad is guessing he weighs 4 and 1/2 pounds. He feels like he weighs 15 pounds!

His weight is a very important factor since I have gestational diabetes. While, I want a big healthy baby I certainly do not want him to get *too* big; which a main concern in mothers with gestational diabetes.

I am also very interested to see what position he is in. I am guessing, from his movements, that he is already in the head down position. I would be extremely surprised if his head was anywhere above my belly button.

The only bummer is that Chad can't make it. But I can't wait to tell him all about it. And I will be posting pics of his latest photo shoot as soon as I can.
