We had our 18 week checkup today, and everything on the ultrasound looks good! This was the first day that the husband saw the baby, and he was so cute - "that's a hand! Is that the spine? etc". The only things they couldn't really see were the lower face to check for cleft lip or pallate, so we'll have to do another ultrasound in 10 weeks (oh darn... ). Also my placenta is only 2.5 cm from the cervix and they would prefer to see 3, so they will recheck that at 10 weeks too. Dr said it was normal at taht point b/c I am not 20 wks yet.
Then they showed us the definitive boy parts! My husband had been holding out for a "panda" but he says he'll settle for a human boy.
