3D Ultrasound Experience

We decided to get a 3D ultrasound at 32 weeks. I was extremely excited since it would allow us to get a glimpse of what our baby looks like!! The appointment was at 1:00p, so early that morning I went to the hair salon since this was also the same day as my baby shower. While at the salon, which was around 7a, Baby Young was wide awake!! BY was moving all over the place, and making sure to let me know that they were also ready for the baby shower...lol.

However, when we arrived at the ultrasound location, Vision Within...BY was KNOCKED OUT!!!! BY was sound asleep, and there was no waking him/her. The way that the baby was positioned did not allow us to get any really good & clear. Also, the placenta seemed to be in the way as well!! So, we spent most of the session poking my tummy trying to get the baby to move around some. I drunk two bottles of cold water, and two peppermint patties to try and wake the baby so it could move for us. Basically, nothing worked, so below are some of the best pictures we were able to get.

Overall I would say that I was disappointed in the images we were able to get, but we did get a DVD of all the pictures, about 6 prints, and a DVD of the entire live session that lasted about 50 minutes.

One main feature that stood out from BY was those big juicy cheeks!!! I can't wait to kiss all over those cheeks!!!

  1. Aww, look at those cheeks! Love juicy cheeks they are the best. Looks like there may be some hair on that head too! :-)

  2. I too am amazed at how technology can answer our questions (almost) instantly. With 3d ultrasound, I also saw the face of our baby a few months before due. Amazing!
