20 weeks 2 days Scan

Everything looks good!  He's growing and wiggling, and I can feel him moving around off and on during the day.  (The resident who was with my doctor said he is "so cute!"  I have to agree.)

Here's his profile:


Here are some of the measurements they took:


His AUA (average ultrasound age) is 21 weeks, 0 days.
He weighs 12 oz.
BPD (bi-parietal diameter, or the diameter of the skull from ear to ear) measured 21 weeks 4 days.
HC (head circumference) measured 21 weeks 4 days.
AC (abdominal circumference) measured 20 weeks 3 days.
FL (femur length) measured 20 weeks 1 day.

18 weeks 2 days Scan

Baby Jackson is a boy!  His development is right on track.  He was very active during the ultrasound, which led to jokes about break dancing and boxing.  He kept his hands in little fists near his head for most of the hour-long scan, but he did eventually allow them to take some pictures of them.  He measured closer to 19 weeks than 18 weeks 2 days.
