21 Weeks!

I had my anatomy scan this past wednesday and surprise, its a GIRL!!!  We are both very excited for whats to come and I cannot wait to purchase super cute little baby girl clothes :)  I had the same ultrasound tech that I had at my 14 week NT scan and once again I received absolute crap for pictures which really bums me out because I think that this was my last ultrasound!  I got one good profile shot and the only other decent one is of the babies foot.
Baby girl wasn't being very cooperative at first but once I was finally able to empty my bladder the ultrasound tech was able to get most of her measurments.  She is weighing in at 13 oz, no clue on length...did I mention I hate this certain ultrasound tech? :)  Dr said everything looks good as far as the baby goes.  She is a little concerned about some cysts that are on my ovaries (largest one is 5cm) that haven't gone down/away since becoming pregnant.  Because they aren't causing me any pain and aren't really a threat to the babe we are just going to wait until my 6 week post partum appt where I'll get another ultrasound to check on them and discuss our options for removing them at that time.

21 week update - Carrot!
Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like she's practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.
