22 Week Check-Up

We had our monthly Dr appt and second ultrasound yesterday. We had the ultrasound first and the technician couldn't believe how wiggly little Canterbury was. Baby Canterbury wouldn't lay still for 2 seconds. She let us watch the screen as she moved the wand around the baby taking pictures of its little arms and legs. We saw its tiny heart thumping away and its little face turned towards us. I teared up seeing our baby on the screen. Its such a wonderful feeling to know I have a tiny life growing inside me.
Baby Canterbury is about 1lb 4oz which the Dr informed us is "one big baby" for how far along we are. YIKES! He said had we not had an early ultrasound he would be tempted to change our due date based on the baby's size. Our little peanut's heart rate was 140 beats/minute. A fairly calm baby, I hope. We'll cross our fingers baby has Brandon's laid back personality.
