NT Screening

We had our nuchal translucency screening today. Our Turkey looked very healthy. Baby was measuring 13w4d. He sucked his thumb a lot and he's right-handed. And also very stubborn, like his daddy. The doctor kept trying to get him to move into the right position but he seemed to like where he was and didn't want to move. He finally moved long enough to get a quick neck fold measurement and then we gave up.

The weird thing is that right in the middle of everything when they couldn't get the baby in the right position, they kicked us out of the room so someone else could come in and get an ultrasound done. So, instead of me getting dressed and going out to the waiting room, they had us move into the dressing room, which was a tiny little room. It got really awkward when we heard the doc say to the lady, "Okay, I'm going to insert the speculum now." Gross. Here's a pic of my mom sitting on the floor as we were waiting to come back in.

And here's a pic of our little 7 cm wonder. It's not the greatest, but his head is on the right and his right hand is on his forehead. He's got a really cute little buddha belly and a big head.

Looks like your little one is going "oye-vey MOM- can we get this over with already?!"

Isn't it wonderful to get to see them?
