THE ULTRASOUND!!!!

hieveryone!!!! well i had my "12 week" appointment yesterday! yay!!! .. however... not 12 weeks YET ... hah yeserday i was at 11 weeks 4 days .. so 11 weeks 5 days now .. not too far off .. 2 more daysss!!!!! totally awsome! Can't wait =D

Well the gyno that my doctor suggested at the Raffles Hospital is actually really really nice =) .. i saw his picture on the hospital website before i had my appointment and tyson mum and I were like .. oh great he looks creepy! haha . .but totally opposite.. very comfortable with him and hes so nice and does not judge tyson or I which is what i need / want! So anyways .. he descirbed a few things to me about down syndrome tests ect.. even though my risk of having down syndrome is like 1 in a 1000 or 2000 .. sometimes its just good to be on the safe side . . so im hoping everything will be ok!!! FINGERS CROSSED!!!

SO ANYWAYS ! after talking and talking he said it was time for my ultrasound! yay!!! omg i was so excited to get up on that bed and get lubbed up with cold gel stuff hahaha .. sounds kinda suss *lubed* .. but eh! u know what i mean!!! This time i made SURE my bladder was bursting full!!! actually.. too full that i was BUSTING to go to the bathroom the whole time haha .. so then i go up onto the bed for the ultrason and before we knew it .. ahh the baby was up on the screen =D sooo cute.. swishing around and pushing itself off the walls off the uterus and even doing sumersualts !!! so cute ..kinda looked like superman moves haha all that was going through my head was it saying " wee" and it bounced itself from one end to the other. just having a blast inside me !! haha so cute !! .. also my gyno put like a thermal view on the ultrasound so i could see the umbilical chord =) . . twas so cute! ah everything was just so awsome!!!!

so anyways , ill shush now unless after i load the photos i think of something else to say haha .. theres only 3 .. there were a few more but not very clear and sorta just not much haha .. ill try to explain each photo =) enjoy!!!

OH almost forgot !
baby measures: 5.1 cm
my uterus measures: 11.8 cm

=)





Ok this photo is a split screen photo .. its not very easy to see but on the left is the lower limbs .. you can see the legs crossing over hehe cutie . . and on the right hand side is the upper limbs which is the arms and the hands are touching !!







now this photo is to measure the size of the buby!! from head to toe it is measuring 5.1 cm :) so happy!! growing at aperfect rate says the doc =D yay!! The head oson the left hand side of the body and looks like its facing down in my uterus .. its hard to tell .. but once you realise its back is against my uterus ull see where the face and legs are. It is a side profile :)







Now this photo is o the baby's NT .. cant remember what that stands for but its something at the bottm of the skull/ top of the spine and determines down syndrome .. i think it is the ticker the NT the greater risk of down syndrome .. he says the baby's loooks fine its quite thin so not to worry too much! (oh and btw the baby's back is facing us) Oh i almost forgot .. you can see toes if u look to the top left of the picture.. near where you would expect the legs to be theres like little strokes next to each other. they are toes!!! hehe tiny !








okies last but not least!!! My favourite picture of all =) heheh .. this is the profile picture of our buby . . if you ook carefully and hard ahha you can see the face (top left) and the feet ( bottom right ) and the hands are in between.. i think its hands are touching each other =) nawww ... so ys the face you can make out the outline the chin , the mouth , the nose, and the eyes im so in love!! heheh i cantr wait till it grow bigger and we get clearer pictures of the face and hands etc. One day may be lucky to get a 3D/4D ultrasound so it looks real! hehe


okies .. well i hope you all like the new pics .. alot more interesting i think than the first one we got hehe . =) Also he recorded the movement on disk so im hoping that at my next appointment i can get it off him ... but if not then ill ask if he can do another one.. maybe the week we find out the sex =D =D

I shall keep you all updated!!!!

lots of love !!
