We had an appointment at the MFM Specialists for our fetal heart echo this morning and it was so amazing! Everything was so much clearer than our last ultrasound since the baby is bigger, and thankfully we only received positive news that baby is looking healthy. Baby’s heartbeat was measuring at 144bpm and current weight is 1lb 4ozs. And for the big surprise, we decided to find out the sex after all, and it was a good thing we were okay with finding out because as you can see from the below picture it was pretty obvious even to us that…

Here are a couple more cute profile shots of our little man…

We’re relieved to know that all things continue to point to him being a healthy baby, and it was so wonderful to get all of that time this morning to see him and the little world he currently inhabits. Although we’re not out of the danger zone yet, I’m definitely feeling more and more reassurance that this time we are going to bring home a healthy baby.

Congrats on having a healthy baby boy! From one boy Momma to another it is the greatest joy you will ever have!
Quick question... Does your MFM always do a fetal heart echo or were there specific reasons for it?
So so happy to hear this update! A healthy baby boy! Eeeeeee! I'm obviously a bit partial to Team Blue. ;) What great pics---the "thinker" one just melts my heart!

Thanks guys!!! We're SO excited! @ Hillary - the specialist recommended the heart echo because heart defects are the most common abnormality babies are born with and they are seen more frequently with IVF babies.
Congratulations! Look at that little winky! So glad he is doing well...and viability right around the corner :-)
so very beautiful!:)

You're having a boy! You're having a boy! Oh, Rebecca, this is lovely news:) And, yes, ahem...it would have been very difficult for the ultrasound tech to keep that particular cat in the bag.
I'm so glad everything looks good. I know you're not out of the danger zone. But with every day that goes by, you get closer and closer to the end of it.
Yay for boys!!! Congratulations! Have we thought of a name?
