Ultrasound Crazy!

I was a little disappointed in the beginning of my pregnancy because I wasn't getting a lot of ultrasounds - which is good, because it meant there were no problems, but made us sad because we wanted to see our little girl as much as possible.

To make up for it, things got better in the second half... we had our 20 week anatomy ultrasound, where we found out [officially] she is in fact a GIRL! The we had to get an emergency ultrasound at 29 weeks to re-evaluate her size. Turns out she is measuring about 5 days smaller than the anticipated due date, which in reality doesn't actually matter because 5 days is not a huge difference once she is ready to come out.

Then we scheduled our 3D/4D ultrasound. Since these are not for diagnostic purposes, we had to set it up ourselves and we had to pay for it. The good news is, we get two appointments just in case she doesn't cooperate. Well we went in for our first one at 31 weeks. She proved she was our little monkey by showing us lots of her feet - which she had right in front of her face. Silly girl. The pictures were not horrible and we spent a glorious 30 minutes watching her move around and be crazy.

Then we set up our second one, because it was free and I'm not going to pass up an opportunity to see her again! We set it for 32 weeks. Same thing all over again, she had her feet right in her face. She is so adorable. Unfortunately this time the machine broke about 20 minutes into our appointment... :( BUT the tech let us schedule another appointment (free of charge) to make up for it! WIN! :)

We set it for two days later, and it turns out this was the best session BY FAR. She still had her feet right in her face, but she showed us her face and how beautiful she already is. We are so excited for her to be here!!!

And, just for good measure our doctor is scheduling us for another ultrasound at 35 weeks just to check on her one more time! :D
