Last Tuesday, I had another ultrasound but this time it was with a radiologist (instead of my OB) for what they call Sequential Screening - which screens for the potential of baby having down syndrome. Everything went VERY well! The radiologist I went to was super informative and was kind enough to take a ton of pics for me, several of which were in 3D/4D. He was also kind enough to give us his prediction for gender and he thinks there's a 90% chance we're having a boy!

Aside from the fun news, the ultrasound gave us more good news that Baby Boy is growing just the way he's supposed to. The radiologist didn't find a single thing that he was concerned about and said things couldn't look better. He was able to see all 4 chambers of Baby's heart, which he said is pretty rare for this stage - so he has a strong heart :-)

Unfortunately, Del couldn't make it but the Doc sent me home with a DVD of the whole ultrasound. So I was able to show Del everything at home and I think things became more real for him. It was fun to finally share some excitement together :)
Next Doc appt is in a couple weeks with my OB and hopefully he'll be able to close a little bit of that 10% chance that the radiologist was wrong ;-)
