We went to a new doctor today since we had such a difficult timing getting into our original doctor. When we arrived we realized the new doctor would not be able to do an ultrasound on site. But in order to check the hematomas we needed him to take a look! So he got us in to the ultrasound clinic across the street.

We were delighted to learn that the hematomas have gone away completely! Praise the Lord! And that the fibroid mass is still there but far enough from the baby that it shouldn’t cause any risk. Before the ultrasound was done the doctor said he could not guarantee that the baby would not “abort” as he said in his limited English at this point (16 weeks). This is why we have been so concerned. So once we got the word that things were okay Seth said “now you are pregnant, we can get excited!!”

The only other “unusual” thing that the radiologist spotted almost instantly was a little boy part! Yep, it’s a BOY! Jackson is going to have a little brother. We are so excited but still spinning a bit imagining a house with so many boys!  I think I have earned myself lots of girls nights outs by having another little boy!

So, pretty soon I will be diving back into Jackson’s baby clothes to see what survived his use and what needs to be replaced!  We haven’t decided on a name but will update you as soon as we decide! We have it narrowed down so it shouldn’t be too long!

Here are a few photos of our little guy…..DISCLAIMER: for those of you that are traumatized by the new generation sharing sonogram pictures of babies please skip the next section. It does include pictures of a naked baby and a womb.
