Ultrasound Pictures!!!

They're finally here for all of you who have been waiting!! :) I got some of the pictures scanned from my most recent ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. These are baby at 13 weeks. They are pretty amazing pictures. Soon I will try and get the rest of them up or at least get the first ones up (done at 9.5 weeks) so you can see how much change happened in only a 3-week span of time. I'll go through and explain them a little bit.


This one is a nice profile shot. You can really see the nose and mouth, baby's arm is to its side and legs are straight up in the air and a little out of the shot.

This one is one of my favorites. It looks like baby is relaxing in a hammock. Arms are behind the head and feet/legs are straight up on the right side of the picture. This is the one that makes Ed think its a boy. We were happy though, if the baby is this relaxed when it comes out our jobs will be a piece of cake!! :)

This one is a little scary. Instead of a profile shot it's the face straight on. Since you can really only see bone in an ultrasound you are seeing a skull. It looks kind of like an alien, but that is normal according to the ultrasound tech.

This one is neat b/c it shows the heartbeat. Pretty neat! :) She said baby looks perfect and everything is right on track. We got our blood results back the other day from this visit. The doctor said everything was normal! Yay, one less thing to worry about. We are very lucky to have such a perfect little baby.

Wow! So cool! It must be amazing to finally see the little one. Are y'all going to find out whether it's a boy or girl, or be surprised?
