Sneak Peek

Kevin and I had a very exciting day yesterday! We started off with our regular appointment with Dr. Richter. This one was pretty uneventful. She just measured my fundal height, which was 30 1/2 cm. Again, Hunter is still right on target for being 30 weeks 3 days. Dr. Richter also listened for his heartbeat, which for the first time she had a difficult time finding. Kevin had a very worried look on his face, but I had felt Hunter moving all morning, so I wasn't concerned. Dr. Richter even said he was moving a lot, and that was the reason she had a difficult time finding the hearbeat. At one point, he actually kicked her heart monitor! After awhile of searching, she finally found it and his heart was beating at a healthy 158 bpm. After our appointment, Kevin and I then headed over to the hospital to finish up registering for Hunter's big arrival! We are all set to go on that end, so now its just a waiting game! The last thing on our baby to do list yesterday was to have our 3D/4D ultrasound!!! Our parents were able to come also, and it was the first time the grandparents have been able to hear Hunter's heartbeat and see his ultrasound live. It was very exciting to see Hunter's face and watch him move around. It was a little difficult to get some really good pictures of his face, because he kept his left hand up by it the entire time. I started to worry if he even had a right arm, so the sonographer looked for it and found it down by his private. So, he is definitely already acting like a boy, and I'm afraid I'm going to have a plenty of crazy times ahead of me with this one :) He also kept opening and closing his mouth a lot and stuck his tongue out a few times. One time it actually looked like he was crying or yelling!!! So everyone is thinking we are also going to have a loud, outgoing baby!!! I just can't wait to meet him and see if any of our predictions are right!!!

Here are a couple pictures from the ultrasound...
