had my scan today! I'M IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!
baby was sooo cute. when the ultrasound device pushed in for the first time, baby tried to shield it's head from it, so it was throwing up its arm and hands. i think we disturbed it from sleeping. would've been in a great position to see what it is... but... first all the measurements!
everything measured 14+5/14+6, however the head measured a little bigger at 15 to 15+2.
i'm a little concerned about the heartrate. sonographer said baby's heartbeat was 69 and she didn't say anything else about it, but in my head i was already like "that sounds pretty low". confirmed with the internet. however, when she got the heartbeat and i listened to it, it sounded perfectly like what i was expecting... so don't know. guess it was okay, otherwise she would've said something, right!?
when we finally got to taking pictures of baby, it started acting out
apparently it thought that it was lots of fun kicking after the ultrasound device... or maybe it just wanted it's peace again after that long disturbance
i asked her, if it was possible to see what it is, but there was no way. it was so active throwing its legs up that we just couldn't get a look. at one time both legs were actually spread apart, but guess what!? the umbilical cord was in the way.... argh!
since the sonographer tried to look for the gender, i'm not gonna book a private scan. for the anomaly scan at 20 weeks i'll have to pay another $130,- since only one scan is included and if it's the same woman, i guess she'll look again and tell me the gender if visible. if not, i'll still be able to book a private scan.
alright ladies, here my precious LO:
