Growth Ultrasound

Last Friday, June 20th, we had another ultrasound. My doctors LOVE to give ultrasounds which is great because we LOVE having them! This one was to measure Ethan's growth and to see if he's on schedule - which he is. His overall measurements put him in the 48th percentile (50% being average) so he's right on track. We're going back for one more ultrasound in less than 4 weeks. At that time we'll almost be 37 weeks which is considered full term, so we'll really get an idea of how big he'll be when he's born.

Unfortunately we didn't get any good pictures from the ultrasound this time to share. We did see that there's not much room left in there though. He's all scrunched up so we couldn't see his little face. So I guess we'll just have to wait 6-7 more weeks to see what he looks like when he's born. We're so excited and can't wait to meet him soon! We'll keep you posted.

Love,
Becca & Alex
