Last time the doctor took a measurement a little bigger than normal, so this time we had a sonogram to try to calculate the child's size and weight. They took measurements of the femur, stomach, head, and came up with an estimate of about 6 Lb 14 Oz, with a little less than 3 weeks to go.
We could also see our baby's face --barely as he had his hands out in front, but we could easily identify his eyes and nose and cheeks. I don't know why, but I felt really proud.
We were so happy to see him on the screen, and that he has all his parts as it should be and not three heads or something. Mommy was also relieved to hear he doesn't appear to be too big.
