The visit started out with them telling us that they had gotten Pauline&#8217;s blood work back and that she was blood type A Positive.  They also told us that the extra test for mecury that she had ask them to do came back 0%.  Meaning that she didn&#8217;t have any in her blood stream.<\/p>\n<p>The doctor then tried to find a heart beat, but wasn&#8217;t able to with the &#8220;crude&#8221; tool he was using.  I was completely unimpressed with it.  It was little more than a microphone with a amplifier on it, that he kind of just moved around on P&#8217;s stomach.  We heard her heart beat a few times (which is cool too), but never the kids.<\/p>\n<p>So the decided to do an ultrasound.  They had P drink a bunch of water and then like ten minutes later we were in another room and she was getting an ultrasound.  This was the kinda machine I was impressed with.  30 seconds into it, we were listening to a heart beat and 35 seconds into it we could see the baby.  He moved around on it a little and there were a couple times were we could really see it clearly.  Unfortunately, the two pictures we got apparently aren&#8217;t those times.  You have to look at them with a little bit of an imagination to see it, but there they are:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/gallery\/new_baby\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/albums\/new_baby\/aab.jpg\" alt=\"Ultrasound of our new baby\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/albums\/new_baby\/aaa.jpg\" alt=\"Ultrasound of our new baby.\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I started a new album for it and clicking either of these picture will take you there.  I also uploaded two with the baby outllined for those that can&#8217;t &#8220;see&#8221; it.<\/p>\n<p>They measured the baby at 44mm, which for those that are metrically challenged is around 1.73 inches.  Still pretty tiny.  Next appointment is Jan 3 and they opened up the due date a little.  Now it is somewhere inbetween June 22 and June 27.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We went back today to have some more tests ran and to see if they could find a heartbeat for the baby.
