Yet Another Ultrasound

So we got our fourth ultrasound today… doctor’s orders. Seeing that Grace’s Asian belly was smaller than the average Caucasian bellies, the doctor ordered the fourth ultrasound scan PLUS a fetus stress test. But the ultrasound result concluded that we have a developmentally healthy baby, weighing at 7 lbs with two more weeks to go. The ultrasound technician thinks the baby will probably weigh 8 to 9 lbs by the time Grace delivers. Yikes… that’s one giant baby. Since ultrasound turned out fine, we skipped the fetal stress test. Michael’s son only weighed 7 lbs at birth Maybe Kongfu Death Grip won’t be necessary for my son to beat his if they ever get into a fight.

More pictures to follow when I get my hands on a scanner sometime this week. We have a picture of his face from the ultrasound! I would post the videos too, but to your untrained eyes, the clips just look like a moving slob of unprocessed meat.

Update: Alien faces…

    my son is already lifting his head by himself, and has discovered that the location of his primary appendages.. soon he will be turning over and will discover his digits - when that happens, I am afraid your newborn son will not have a chance with his untrained asian hands, and aforementioned “Kongfu Death Grip”!

    consider yourself warned shun chu!
