Update : ) 23 weeks!

This morning we went to the Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialist to have our 2nd level ultrasound of baby boy because of the CPC that was found at Anatomy Scan at 18 weeks.  The nurse initially came in and took my blood pressure (which was sky high), she knew that I was nervous though.  Then the Specialist came in and did the whole ultrasound himself, which was so nice because he was able to tell us exactly what we were seeing as we looked at the screen.  Almost immediately he informed us that the CPC was gone!!!  He still went over everything in depth hands, feet, spine, heart, kidneys, brain, etc and everything and all looks perfectly healthy.  Baby is measuring exactly 1 week ahead still and he said he weighed approx 1 pound 7 ounces already!  After the scan he sat down and talked to us and told me that if I were his daughter that he wouldn’t worried, he believes we have a perfectly healthy baby boy.  He also stated that he was 99% positive that baby doesn’t have Trisomy 18.  Woo Hoo I’m so relieved.  They then again checked my BP and it was still high 130/78, but had come down quite a bit so they weren’t concerned.  On the way home I kept sighing huge sighs of relief, I’m so thankful for a healthy baby.  I feel like so much weight has been lifted off my chest. 
Here’s a picture of my perfect little angel:
