On Friday I had my repeat ultrasound (at my 20w u/s they couldn't get some of the shots they needed, because of the position Emersyn was lying in) - and it was so wonderful to see my girl again!!! She was in a bit of an awkward position again, but slightly better than last time, and eventually the u/s tech got the shots she needed... but not until I'd gone for a 20 minute walk, to try to get her to move a little!
Everything looks great - the heart & face (which were what she needed to look at) all looked perfect, and then she did all the measurements that help them determine the size of the baby, and well - little miss has GROWN! At 19w2d she weighed 298g/11oz & then at 23w2d she weighed 640g/1lb7oz - so she's doubled her weight - well, more than doubled it & is around the 62nd percentile.
I finally got some 3D pictures as well, which was such an amazing experience - I cried when I saw the first one, and then my Mum was rubbing my foot, and I didn't have to look at her to know she had tears in her eyes as well! We got a couple of good 2D pictures of the face as well, but no profile pictures, like I was hoping for.
All in all a wonderful experience!
Here are some pictures of my little bambino!
you can see the back of Emersyn's head
a little ear & her right arm/right leg
you can see her arm & a little sliver of her face
the orbits/eyes
looking front on at Emersyn's face
note her hand above her head
... looks like she's doing the 'peace' sign!
