Today was the DAY!!! We finally got to see baby on an in depth ultrasound and man was baby being naughty!! That is the exact wording that our ultrasound tech used, naughty. Baby decided to hide directly behind my bellybutton so everything that she was trying to see mostly had a shadow on it. We only got 4 pictures of baby due to the little booger deciding to hide. The tech and the doctor vigorously tried jiggling and wiggling my belly to move so they could get the view of the heart that they wanted. Did baby move...haha nope. So needless to say we have a little sassy pants on our hands. Adam claims that baby already has my personality.
From one of the good pictures that we got baby most definitely has my nose. FINALLY someone in my family will have my nose! When the doctor and the tech wiggled and jiggled my belly I laughed uncontrollably every single time. The doctor was slightly worried at first when I first laughed and the tech explained that it tickled me and that I really found it funny. It was so hard not to laugh because it really did tickle and it was so crazy to me that seeing them move my belly was really moving all the stuff inside me so much. To me it was hilarious. Before the doctor came in Adam and I were joking that me banging on my belly like a bongo drum before my appointment with my OB might not have been the greatest idea. That had me literally cracking up. Adam said baby was saying okay you want to beat on me like a drum well I'm going to hide, and hide he/she did. We go back in two weeks to get hopefully (fingers crossed) a better look at baby and at the heart. The heart is the main thing that the doctor was not happy with not being able to get a good look at. I'm completely okay with this because he is being super thorough and we get to see baby again. Yep I will most definitely go back in again. When I met with my OB the FHR was 146 when we had our ultrasound it was 155. Why the change, I have no idea?! Looking forward to going back in two weeks to see our little munchkin again!!!
They say the heart rate changes with how much baby moves. You are in girl range! :D Our baby's heart beat has always been above 140 and guess what...GIRL. <3 And I even thought she was going to be a boy too!
ReplyDeleteWe will just see. Adam says that's the one thing that he doesn't like to follow if it's high/low since it's always changing. Who knows. Happy and healthy. And our doctor told us that Adam will be the one when labor time comes to announce the gender to the both of us!!
