3D/4D Ultrasound...Pics of Her Sweet Face!

WOW. I am still in shock at what we just saw, amazing to say the least!! I originally wasn't sold on the 3d ultrasound, and wasn't sure I thought it was worth the money. After several friends and family members talked me into it, I decided to go but was still skeptical. This was by far the most amazing thing ever. I would pay double what we did and go back in a heartbeat! She is the cutest little thing ever :)

She likes to stay wadded up in a tiny little ball, refused to move - just like at the 20wk
**No, the black stuff on top of her head isn't hair, she is lying head down, face out and diagonal - so she just has her head buried in my belly :)

Chubby cheeks and her Daddy's mouth, in a couple others you can
see more how defined her upper lip is. Definitely a deep V like Ben's

lips! Ahh! So sweet :)

The cord up by her face

2d, you can see the cord really well - apparently having 3 vessels in the
cord is very important - good thing they're all there!

OMGoodness that pouty mouth! Cord up by her face again

Just hangin' out takin a little nap

Not sure whose nose that is, we both have such pointy noses it will be hard to tell

left hand up by her face

teeny little hands and fingers
Don't worry Grandmas, there's nothing wrong w her face - she's just got her face squished right up on me!



Left arm and knee




Girlie parts - still a girl!



not that great of a shot - she likes having her face buried in my belly!

What a great day, I can not get over how amazing it was to get an idea of what she will look like.

The funniest thing ever happened in there:

Ultrasound guy taking the first picture:
Me: Oh my goodness babe, look at those cheeks!
Ben: Ya, I can't really tell what's going on here...
Ultrasound guy: this is the head, face...(explains to Ben what's happening)
Ben: (interrupts) Oh, Sh!t!! No way!

Love him :)


My 28wk appt and glucose test was last week, and everything is GOOD! :)

At my 24wk they said she was measuring a little big, and if nothing had changed by the 28 week we'd need to do an ultrasound and some additional testing...so I've been massively freaking out - crap, it's all the peanut butter & bananas, omg I have gestational diabetes and that's why she's big, she's gonna be born early, I've gained too much and I'm gonna cause her to be obese child....You know, all the ridiculous "what if" scenarios. I'm VERY happy that the Dr said her size and my weight gain were "perfect." So relieved.  

I cannot wait to post pics of my baby shower! I forgot my camera (of course), so I have to wait and get pics off everyone else's cameras.
