New Ultrasound Pictures - 12 weeks and 3 days

Monday, March 16, 2009




I just got back from my 12w3d appointment. The first picture you can see the baby's hand wave. The second is a perfect profile picture. I was so happy to see this baby again today. I had another amazing appointment. This ultrasound appointment was a little different than the last one, as they did a Nuchal Screening test. The doctor measures the back fold of the neck to determine if there's a chance of Down Syndrome and other abnormalities in the baby. It was also an "over the belly" ultrasound. The doctor said everything looks normal so I'm very happy. I was so surprised to see how much the baby was moving during the ultrasound, too. The baby was moving the head and body, and at one time even waved his hand at us! It's so cute how the baby moves around in that little space, but it's still too small for me to actually feel it. The heart rate was beating at a great pace at 167bpm. Gosh, words can't express how much I'm so in LOVE with this baby already!
