Check at sixteen weeks

I missed out going as I had to work. Ritsue took Kento and his runny nose along to the clinic. This gave the nurses an excuse to fuss over him. Four of them looked on as he lay next to his mother. Apparently the baby was waving a lot.
The doctor said he couldn't see anything to determine the sex

As Ritsue’s bump on the outside grows, it looks like things are growing inside. The clinic is keen to see patients every two weeks! I guess this is pretty standard in Japan.
Second scan
Scan with heartbeat
So long as there are no complications, we would rather visit less often; already at this stage things are expensive.

Ritsue (my wife) is again pregnant. We went to the clinic this afternoon for the initial check and got a print of the first scan. The baby’s head is marked by cross at the bottom and a hand is visible between the two. Kento has already chosen the name of ‘bird’.

Kento was checked again this morning. Having put on some weight since yesterday, we were all able to leave.

There is a strong chance the doctors will want to keep Kento (and my wife) in for the next two weeks. If he can put some more weight on overnight then maybe we can all go home tomorrow.
Clearly happy to be out

This morning at 8:10 my wife delivered our baby. He was a scant 2318 grams and is in an incubator at the moment.
We have named him 憲都 (Kento).
