Notes from an ultrasound

I meant to post this all last week... [livejournal.com profile] luvcherbear had a "level 2 ultrasound" this past Monday, which is an in-depth check on the baby, making sure everything is the way it's supposed to be. I was instructed to take notes in case mom-in-law had questions afterward, so here is a transcript of the notes hastily taken on my phone while being in awe of what i saw on the monitor :)

Saw heart beat!
Measuring head size
11oz
Saw the cord...
Close up of the head
Cerebellum!
Face!
Hand and fingers!
Lots of zooming in on internal organs.
A foot!
And toes
I think we saw a whole leg
And then a hand under the chin
Heart beat again!
Doing cool Doppler stuff imaging heart chambers
Wow, hearing the heart beat!
Shot of the spine from behind, can see the heart beating!
Trying to get a 3d image, baby is a bit small.
It's a boy!
Just talked with the doctor, he said everything looks fine.

And one of the pics:




Ooh baby, I love your way.

I am beyond happy that we were able to experience the Ultrasound together. Our little man is quite the cutie, me thinks.

I love you!!

Woohoo!

All babies must be cute, as it is their primary defense mechanism. Even at this stage. :-)
