We had a great time with the ultrasound tech. She was really nice and spent about 15 minutes showing us the baby and explaining what everything was, which was really helpfully to me because those ultrasound pics are like those blurry 3-D pics that were super popular in the 90's. You have to stare at it for awhile until your eyes adjust and finally can make out what it is.
The baby was super active and a bit camera shy. She was flipping and rolling around, and sucking her hand and running away from the camera. Here are a few of the ultrasound pics. The tech was nice and printed out 10 different shots.
The Dr. then came in and did another ultrasound to check for any abnormalities. Thankfully our baby is looking great!
Here is the confirmation that it is a girl. It is hard to tell because the shot apparently is if she was sitting on a glass table and you were looking up at her (which is kinda of weird and gross to think about). The mouse arrow is pointing to the direction of the "girl parts"
We were able to watch her drink the fluid which I am told she pees out only to re-drink it. Yummy! You can see this shot she has her mouth open drinking some nice refreshing amniotic fluid mixed with pee.
This is a shot of her foot.
For the second half of the ultrasound she was curled up in this really tight ball. Here her elbow is touching her knee. She must get her flexibility from Ashley because I come nowhere close to touching my toes when, make that if I ever stretch.
And last but not least this is the first outfit that I will buy my daughter. A seer sucker dress to match my seer sucker suit! We are so excited and can't believe we have already it the half way mark.
Please leave us comments and name suggestions! I am a very picky and have vetoed 90% of Ashley's suggestions so far. It won't be easy for us to settle on one.Oh you can also start sending us baby presents. We also accept cash. Hahaha!
Love,
Ryan & Ashley
