Baby Update

Lincoln got to go with me today to my sonogram with the specialist. At the specialist office, you get to view the baby on a super large screen TV the size of the entire wall. So, it was super cool to experience that with Lincoln. We got to see him open his mouth and stick out his tongue a couple of times. Everything looked great on the sonogram. No worries at this time, however nothing is for sure until the baby is born. (unless I opt for an amniocentisis which I don't want to have).
I am measuring at least a week early, so that's good news for me. Looks like we may be having the baby earlier in April than expected! I actually get to schedule my induction at my next appointment so we are looking at the weekend of April 10th-ish.
Right now Baby L weighs 2 lbs 2 oz, at 26 (maybe 27) weeks. He would be able to survive on his own at this point.
He has blond hair and blue eyes. (Just kidding! sono's aren't that good yet!)
I am bursting out of my maternity clothes. Had to go shopping today to buy some larger sizes: I picked up a GAP sweatsuit which is super comfy and cute, and I have a feeling I'm going to be living in this for awhile!
My belly just keeps growing straight out, not side to side... It actually looks quite silly to me! I'll work on getting a picture posted. It's hard to believe that this baby has 3 more months to grow. Ron thinks I am as big now as I was full term with Lawson, and I have to agree with him!

Sonogram on bigscreen TV? Wow! Very cool.I find it so fascinating to hear the pregnancy stories from women who have experienced multiple pregnancies. It's crazy how unique each person is, even from the time of conception. So glad to hear Baby L is doing great. Looking forward to April. What an exciting spring for your family!
