Today we had our first appointment with Dr. David Bryant. Dr. Bryant is a Fetal Imaging Specialist and today he ran some standard testing on Jenni & Baby Hawes (Chromosomal testing and also testing for Down's Syndrome percentages). Please do not worry- these are standard tests and only 2 % of patients end up having any problems. They took some blood from Jenni and then we got to see another ultrasound of Baby Hawes! It was just as exciting as the first time to see the baby's heart beating! Baby Hawes is a very relaxed and chilled baby and only flutters around from time to time. Our friend Erin calls them butterflies and I think that is a great way to describe it (it feels like a butterfly has been let loose in your belly.) We will get our results within the next 7-10 days and of course we will be letting you know how the results turn out. We have another visit with Dr. Archer in a few weeks but in the meantime please enjoy the newest pictures of our special little....guy or maybe girl!? (Notice we've marked out the anatomy to help you see Baby Hawes a little better!) Oh and we think Baby Hawes may have Jenni's nose! What do you think?!

So even though I've had a baby and seen lots of ultrasound pictures, I can't seem to determine which way is up in the most recent pics of baby Hawes! Maybe I need to have my eyes tested...
