We had our second sonogram today at Greenwich Hospital. This time it was just Scott and I that went. Baby M is doing great! No real surprises. They confirmed again that it is still indeed a girl how is growing right where she should be. As of right now she is about 5 inches long and 7 oz. Comparable to the size of a candy bar is what the technician said. The kids got a kick out of me telling them she is the size of a candy bar. They thought that was hilarious! We tried to get another good view of her in 4D but she had her back towards us and wouldn't move.
The specialist doctor suggested that we come back for another sonogram at 28 weeks just to make sure the baby is growing appropriately. It's something they do for women who have an IBD disease since those of us with stomach issues can't absorb and digest food as well as someone with a healthy gut can. I also have only gained 3 lbs. as of right now and typically at the half way point they would like women to have gained about 10 lbs. But she wasn't overly concerned since the baby was the right size at this time. As long as from here on out I gain a pound a week the doctor will be happy. Time for me to go eat!
