She's Got It All!


This is our Charlotte giving a hello to everyone. We had our anatomy scan at our last appointment. It is AMAZING what can be seen with an ultrasound! I had no idea what the anatomy scan process entailed, until we were in the little room. They look at every part- hence the name... We saw both her arms and legs, each finger, each toe, all the chambers of her heart, the brain, nerves coming from her brain to her spine. Let's hope we never have to have a radiologist look at all these parts again postnatally.


Pregnancy and prenatal care is a little scary, because no one sits down and tells you what to expect or explains the process. You have to be a parent from moment one. You have to read all you can and ask all the questions possible, if you don't, you're just along for the ride. On the other hand, you need to take in all the answers to your questions and decipher what is worthy information and what is conjecture. I just keep telling myself, women have been doing this for years...
