Ultrasound Today

Our ultrasound today went well. It was another quick ultrasound to evaluate Elam's growth. As I had suspected, he's still in the frank breech position. He was also still low in my pelvis, so he was hard to see. But he has grown. He's now about 2lb. 6oz. We were excited to hear that! While he's still very behind in his growth, he's grown almost a pound in the last four weeks. We got to see the front of his face, but couldn't get a good view of his profile or much else. We could see his eyes moving around, which was neat!

We may post the video from this ultrasound. We'll have to watch it to see if it really shows much. You never know how much the sonographer actually records.

We have another ultrasound scheduled in four weeks. The sonographer said that it would be very important to have an ultrasound soon before I deliver him so they could determine his position and so the NICU could be prepared for his size.
