Perfect Fit - Sonogram 12 weeks



Here is Baby XX at her week 12 sonogram. I like having these sonograms being often! We get to see her a lot more. It never gets old, it's never dull, and it's quite funny and entertaining and emotional. It's good to see that XX doesn't look like an alien anymore, right? At this point, the baby is only 2 inches long! It seems like it's much bigger through the sonogram when you can see the detailings of the spine, facial profile and such. The baby continued to kick and kinda flip around like a fish out of water. Still rather amazing watching that little heart beat.

Dr. Bala said that the size of the baby is normal, and the size of the baby's neck was normal (a pre-test for possible trisomy-21 or Down's Syndrome) It's always a relief hearing that the baby is progressing normally and is healthy. It's so mindblowing that all this development happens with all its intricacies- blood vessels, organs, body shape, nerves, hair, skeletal system, muscles, ALL OF IT. i think how can God not be involved in something so complex and beautiful. it's amazing that things don't go wrong more often considering the elaborate 40 week process. Baby is "fearfully and wonderfully made". There's my "deep thought" for this blog entry. XX is beautiful and amazing, yes? If you disagree, i challenge you to a duel.
