3D Ultrasound

Sunday we went back to Womb With A View for our 3D ultrasound rescan.  We had gone two weeks ago but we couldn't get any good pictures of Little Man.  He was holding the umbilical cord in front of his face the whole time.  So aside from the gender confirmation, we had nothing.

Sunday was much better!

At first, he had the umbilical cord again.  He was actually chewing on it or sucking on it and it was literally covering his entire face.  The ultrasound tech had me lay on my side, which pushed the cord out of his hands and we got clear shots.

A sweet little smile




 
Sucking on his thumb!
 
This makes me even more impatient to meet this little man!  He smiled quite a few times throughout the scan this time.  Even the ultrasound tech said he was a sweet baby with a lot of personality!
 
This is the best I could as far as comparison shots between Baby Girl and Little Man.

Baby Girl 9/2011

  
Little Man 6/2013
 
Little Man's nose looks a little bigger so he might have Daddy's nose.  His lips also look fuller so he might have Daddy's lips too.  Still has those chubby cheeks like his sister!
 
I can't wait to meet him and see how he is different from his sister.  Are they going to look identical or will this one look more like me?
 
Only 11 more weeks until we find out!!!

    Thanks for sharing, and I know that you can get a 3d ultrasound. But I also heard that you could get a 4d ultrasound, and I don't understand how a 4d ultrasound would work.

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...
