Profile. 23 weeks.Two weeks ago, it was confirmed that Silas had SUA, that is, Single Umbilical Artery, or what is commonly referred to as a 2-Vessel Cord. This doesn't always indicate problems, but has been linked to developmental problems. So, as a standard procedure, I had a level 2 ultrasound today to double check everything and make sure baby boy is growing as he should. He is right on track! The doctor didn't find any problems at this point and doesn't expect any major problems, but they will continue to monitor Silas' growth throughout the remainder of the pregnancy. So, we'll get to 'see' him often, and hopefully have plenty of neat pictures to share. They did try to get a few 3D pictures, but the boy was squirming all over, so they had some trouble getting a clear image. These are still pretty neat.
This is a side view of his face
Here's his profile. He has his little fist up by his face.Thank you, praying friends. We appreciate your prayers for our growing family.
