3D Sonogram and < 8 Weeks To Go...

Carrie recently had a 3D sonogram done to make sure the baby was doing well despite a chance of Carrie having gestational diabetes. When this condition exists, it is possible for the baby to become unusually large in the womb which causes obvious problems for the birth. It turns out the baby is developing 100% normal and there will be no problems at birth. Dr. is estimating a birth weight of 8lbs and change.

Due to the gestational diabetes, Carrie has to test her blood glucose levels five times a day. It's mostly a pain because you have to remember to do it, and then you have to prick yourself to get a drop of blood for the test.

Names

Of course everyone asks us about names, and now that we are certain it's a girl we can really narrow it down. Here are a few that we're kicking around with uncertainty:

* Azlyn
* Karinna
* Callista
* Afton
* Elizabeth

And here are the pics from the ultrasound:
