#3

We are so excited to tell you all that we are having another baby!!! I'm due March 6, but I might get induced a week early. It depends on the baby's size. Apparently Kevin had shoulder dystocia (his shoulder was stuck for a minute) and that seems to make my new OB nervous. She actually mentioned that I might need to have a C-section depending on the projected weight of the baby. The whole thing didn't seem to bother my old OB much, but whatever. All's well that ends well. Can you tell that I miss my North Carolina OB? The whole practice was amazing.

We had an ultrasound at 9 weeks and another at 12. Baby Dison 3 looks perfect and very active.

I'm 14 weeks now and I've started to feel better this week (almost normal so far today). I've been so grateful for my mama's help the last couple of months! The next step is to find all the maternity clothes that are hidden in storage. I have 1 pair of shorts, 1 pair of jeans and some skirts that still fit.

Here are some pictures of the cutest fetus you've ever seen. I'm not sure how to flip them. I thought I had, but they keep showing up sideways when I upload them. The last 2 are 3D.




It was amazing to have an ultrasound at 12 weeks, we could see all the fingers and toes. We could tell that the brain was splitting into 2 hemispheres and that there was liquid in the digestive tract and 4 chambers in the heart. Amazing. Our baby is already swallowing and sucking his thumb. Or her thumb. We'll find out the sex in less than 2 months! :)
