3/4D scan (11th August)

Wow! What a day. I am feeling so amazingly happy right now after going for my 4D scan this morning. Today was the 2nd attempt as at the last appointment he'd hid his head down in my pelvis and would not move, tried everything but he just wouldn't move at all, he was obviously very comfy.

The first attempt was on the 1st of August at 27 weeks and 6 days. We didn't get any pictures but we did get some measurements though:

Head Circum. - 25.34cm
Abdomen Circum. - 22.87cm
Femar Length - 5.04cm
Measuring at 28 2 days (3 days ahead) and weighing 2lb 9oz

We went to a place called Future Babies in Reading and it was great. The people there were absolutely lovely and we didn't have to pay anything extra for our 2nd appointment which was great.

Here are some pictures, i know some people will think these are a little scary but i love them.

Close up:He is still snuggled into the placenta, its almost as if he is using it as a pillow/blanket which makes it a bit harder to get fantastically clear pictures but hey, he's still my gorgeous little man.

The measurements for today were:

Head Circum - 26.99cm
Abdomen Circum - 26.10cm
Femar Length - 5.43cm
Measuring at 30 weeks, 5 days (i'm 29+2 today
) according to my dates so 10 days ahead now) and he weighs about 3lb 8oz.

This was the best scan that i've ever had and well worth every penny! The DVD is just amazing.
