So at 17 weeks 1 day I had my gender ultrasound to find out we are having another boy. The umbilical cord was in between the legs so it took the dr a little while to confirm it was a boy. As soon as he started the ultrasound he said wow that's a big baby. 😳😬 Everything looked normal. His legs measured a week ahead. His heartbeat was around 135 to 140.
