Today's Ultrasound

This morning's ultrasound went really well. The sonographer who did it today was much more thorough than Tuesday's. It took about an hour and 20 min. this time - about what the last ultrasound should have been, but oh well. She had to get Elijah at a difficult angle and then had a hard time finding fluid around Emren. The doctor came in though and double checked things. She said that his stomach looked full and that was a good sign that there was ample amounts around him at least a while ago in order for him to have swallowed it. Levels change all the time so I'm sure even by now he has a bit more around him than earlier.

I like being able to see them so often. Even though it's hard to see things clearly, it's nice to watch them and see all of their parts (kind of) before they're even here. I like knowing how they're sitting/laying on or around eachother...it's fun! Elijah is still bum down and Emren is head down. Their heads are on opposite sides of eachother with Elijah's on the right and Emren's on the left. I wonder if Elijah has been kicking Emren's head lately because I've felt a lot of kicks in that area the past couple of days. They're probably both kicking eachother's heads! Ethan better get prepared.
