Baby Brown #2 !!

At nearly 12 weeks pregnant, I'm staring down the start of the 2nd trimester! Today I went for our 2nd prenatal appointment and had an NT scan done which involves an extra long ultrasound to take some measurements to test for Downs Syndrome, Trisomy 18 and neural tube defects. Man I love to catch glimpses of baby! I was a little worried that I wouldn't be as blown away by this experience as I was 2.5 years ago when we had our first glimpses of Isaac. I'm happy to say I was just as awe struck. A baby the size of lime has fingerprints and chubby baby legs. What a miracle. Initial results of NT scan look excellent, but we'll have to wait for blood work to come back to give us actual odds of any issues. I'm finding myself more curious about this little person this time - I haven't been spending every ounce of energy I have trying not to throw up with this pregnancy so I have more energy to ponder things like this. Who is this little soul?! I told Isaac the other day that I had a baby in my tummy and he promptly lifted up his shirt to show me his tummy......perhaps he won't get this until we bring his brother or sister home from the hospital! And if he's like me when my parents brought Kristen home, he'll ask for the next year when the baby is going back ;)
