Ultrasound Update

I had my follow up ultrasound today.  Aurora looks great!  She is not shy, and made sure that I was reassured that she is a GIRL, and her Dad has not wasted his time priming over the blue paint in her room twice:)
She still has dilated kidneys, so we will have another ultrasound in 6 weeks to make sure they have not gotten worse.  All of her other measurements look perfect.  We saw her cute facial profile (she has a nasal bone - lack of is another soft sign for DS.)    She has the Wilson legs, her femur is measuring long (short femur is another soft sign.)  Her feet are so cute, and her toes do not have a gap between the second and big toe (still another soft sign for DS.)  All these things said, there is still a chance that she will be born with DS, but we will just wait and see when she is born.
We are all grateful she is continuing to grow, and all looks well!
