16 weeks 2 days

June 24- This is my month four belly. I went to the doctor today and according to the charts on the wall, I thought I looked closer to six months. We listened to your heart beat and you sound stronger than ever. In fact we got to hear a couple swishes, signaling that you were on the move. I still don't feel you moving yet, but I can't wait for the zips that you feel initially or for that very first kick.

We also went and had an ultrasound to make sure you were developing good. Everything looked great. It was amazing to see little arms and legs kicking. I get weekly emails that tell about fetal growth, and this weeks email said you were the size of a Kit Kat bar and weighed a whopping 4-5 ounces. So it is pretty amazing that I am able to see arms and legs when you are so small. The ultrasound tech asked if I would like to know your sex and of course I said "no". She told me to look away from the screen when she was looking between your legs and I did but Ariel set up in her chair and paid close attention. After, Ariel seems to think you are a girl as well. I guess only time will tell.

No ultrasound pictures from today because the printer was broken on the machine she was using.
