New parents and our journey of discovery with our little Sprout, Aaron

35 week scan … lots of hair

Well, we had our 35 week scan this morning and Sprout continues to thrill and amaze. The little guy aint so little anymore. As you will see from the video, he now weighs about 2.9kgs and our doctor expects him to pack on another 600g or so by the time he arrives on […]

33 week scan … 33 weeks!

We had the 33 week scan this morning (can’t believe we are at 33 weeks already - well, almost). In short Sprout is growing like crazy (picked up a kg in the last month) and has lots of hair to boot. The hair is the fuzz on his head at the beginning of […]

Non-stress Test

So we had a bit of a scare…
The past week or so I have been having a few sharp pains across my belly, almost like gas but across the surface.  So I called Dr D’s office and Carol-Anne asked if I had any bleeding and if I had felt Sprout move.  I didn’t have any […]

3D scan and an unconscious dad

So we went to the doctor last week Wednesday for our monthly check up and scan.  She was pretty impressed with our progress.  I have put on a […]

23 week scan

We went for the 23 week scan last week and all is well. Our doc said that Sprout is probably going to be a pretty big baby. She thinks he will be about 3.5kgs when he is born. We have booked Gina in to the hospital for her stay in late November […]

20 week scan

We had the 20 week scan today and Sprout is doing great. He was really active and it was a bit tough to get a good look at his legs cause they were all over the place. Sprout is definitely a boy (can’t miss it) and we even got to see his face. […]
