15 weeks along now! These two week sessions seem to come up so fast, time is flying by, for me anyway :-). Baby is now about 4inches crown to rump, weighs about 2 1/2 ounces. Some studies say babies will respond to bright light at this point. The heart rate at this time is 153. Thanks for continuing to follow our blog. JT Enlightened Imaging.

 

Wow I can’t believe I’m 15 weeks along already.  I think this pregnancy is definitely going by faster than my first.  It’s amazing how much more “baby like” our little bean is looking each scan.  The face, body, fingers, everything; has so much more detail each and every week.  I think I finally have all my energy back, thankfully! I’ve also noticed my belly has started to get a little bigger and is getting in the way more and more.  When I hold my 13 month old or put him in his crib I really notice the changes in how much bigger it’s getting.     

When Jon started the scan this week, our little NugBug was looking straight at us and was moving his/her arms above its head, almost like dancing for us, it was so cute and funny!  I think he/she already has a funny personality. :-)

The heart rate was 153 bpm this week which is a little lower than last time.  It still amazes me to see how much the heart is growing each and every week.  I always think back to the first scan when it was so tiny, just the size of a dot from a pen almost.

We got the gender this time too!  Well Jon said he was 99.7% sure anyways. :-) We’re so happy and blessed we have the opportunity to do this baby series and to learn so much along the way.  Thank you to everyone who is following our little baby throughout this pregnancy. :-)
