| I'm a boy! My mommy Antoinette and daddy Bobby are super excited but now need help naming me so pleeeease give them some suggestions so I don't end up with a name like Tobi (Toni & Bobby put together...wah!) Keep in mind that I am of Mexican decent so think of something cool/Rico Suave like. Oh! and by the way, doctor took a look at me today and said I look beautiful and that I'm growing perfect (his exact words, but hey what can I say, look at my mother lol). See you all soon, keep us in your prayers. ¡Adios Amigos!Take a look of me action in the video below... |

We've reached the halfway mark! Yipeeee!
On Thursday the 10th we reach the halfway mark (20 weeks) and we are super excited to have reached this milestone in our pregnancy (for more than one reason). It doesn't seem like that long ago we created this blog to share our babies first ultrasound photo's/video of our little baby chicken (as Hijah, Bobby's daughter says the baby looks like on the ultrasound picture lol).
This upcoming week has been highly anticipated because on Wednesday, March 16th we will be having our anatomy scan/ultrasound allowing us to see the baby from head to toe, go over the results of all of the blood screening test that were taken in the first trimester and most excitedly we will be learning the babies gender! We will post the results of the babies’ gender here so make sure you check back on the 16th!

Get a general idea of what our baby has been up to in the 2nd trimester.
How your baby's growing:
Congratulations! You've hit the halfway mark in your pregnancy. Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, he's measured from head to toe.)He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
