:wave: Ladies,
So sorry it has taken so long up update but we went shopping after the scan for food

What can I say other than an absolutely wonderful experience
We arrived at the studio after getting a little lost

mainly because DH ignored my directions

to be greeted by lovely warm and friendly Reception staff

We were shown to the waiting area and offered refreshments and I was asked to fill out a form whilst we waited...general stuff EDD, do I know babys gender?, do I want to know?

After about 10mins we were taken through to the scanning studio which was really nice. It was dimly lit with comfy chairs and a huge LCD screen for guests to watch and one directly above me on the bed so I could also see

The sonographer was really nice and really friendly

We realised straight away Charlie was in his usual back to us position however she was really good and with some persuation we managed to turn him around

The first time we saw his face he immediately put his left hand in his little mouth all of his fingers and started sucking

It was amazing to think hes in my tummy doing such things we were laughing it was hilarious. He got a bit cheeky half turning back round but still put on a good show laughing and smiling sort of as if he knew he was been naughty

He kept rubbing his face and hiding and we realised just like Mummy he likes to lay with his arms above his head too

He also yawmed like a trillion times

I mean what the heck has he got to be tired for

He kept opening his mouth and closing it and he even opened his eyes a little for us

He kept occasionally turning his back to us but I was right when I said he like Galaxy chocolate because as advised I look one of those HUGE bars with me and once I munched on a few pieces he kicked back into action and turned again which I thought was really funny

As soon as we got a clear picture of him it became very apparent he is the spitting image of his Daddy and even has his little `piggy nose`

POOR KID

DH says he doesnt see this but when I said `hes beautiful` he said `well hes does look like his Daddy!`

Oliver was intrigued for about 15mins but then turned to the toy box however the scan did last 45mins so its quite a long time really to expect him to sit and watch

We came away with 2 black and white images, 4 colour images and a 15min dvd

We already watched the dvd and are going to run off some copies for family

Its really good and the last image is of a potty shot

very definately a little man...right through the middle of the legs very sure ickle pair of balls

oh and he weighs just under 2lb which is on par for his dates

Sonographer gave me the EDD of 2nd May however she says the most accurate scan you can have is your 12wk one because by 20wks baby moves and miscalculations are more common

She says she could be out by a couple of days today because Charlie has a rocket up his bum

However hes certainly now big for even the 2nd May and reckons by term he will be 8-9lb

Bloody fantastic
I would def recommend any of these sort of scans to everyone we got a real bargain for 110.00 in a deal which would have normally cost 250.00 but its def an experience I will never ever forget and was a great experience for us all to share as a family
So here he is my gorgeous little man......
