Here are the scanned ultrasound pictures from our second ultrasound.
|
|
|
|
|
Everything measures great, and according to the measurements are due
|
|
|
|
|
date is 7/2/2006 +/- 1 week. That’s pretty much the same as our original
|
|
|
|
|
due date of 6/30.

this first picture the baby is making a fist. You can see the four
|
|
|
|
|
fingers directly in the middle of the picture (think of what a fist
|
|
|
|
|
looks like if someone were going to punch you (hmm…maybe the baby’s mad
|
|
|
|
|
:-) ). The face is on the bottom right and a bit of the rib cage on the
|
|
|
|
|
bottom left.

this picture you might be able to see the bottom of the foot. If you
|
|
|
|
|
can, please let us know, because we pretty much can’t see anything. The
|
|
|
|
|
tech was trying to get a picture just when the baby pressed its foot
|
|
|
|
|
against the ultrasound device. We did see some very cool pictures of the
|
|
|
|
|
feet, but the baby kept pushing out and retracting its foot, and the
|
|
|
|
|
tech just missed it.

|
2022-12-30 20:25:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
third picture is one of the coolest pictures, if you can see it. Most
|
|
|
|
|
ultrasound pictures you expect to see a profile. This is not. The baby
|
|
|
|
|
is looking <span style="font-weight: bold;">\*directly at the
|
|
|
|
|
camera\*</span> and you can see the eyes, nose, mouth, and ribcage (to
|
|
|
|
|
the left). Most people we’ve shown this picture to cannot see the face
|
|
|
|
|
until they turn the picture 90 degrees counter clockwise and then it
|
|
|
|
|
comes into view. After a week of looking at the pictures, it has
|
|
|
|
|
probably become my favorite.

2022-12-30 20:25:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
picture is Kelly’s favorite, and used to be mine. It’s the standard
|
|
|
|
|
profile picture, with rib cage on the left, the face (almost) in profile
|
|
|
|
|
view right in the center. You can also see something above the rib cage.
|
|
|
|
|
This might be part of the arm or the hands, but we’re not sure.

picture is highly similar to the one above, so I'll let you enjoy it.

|
last one is a further-out view of the baby. I’m assuming that’s the head
|
|
|
|
|
on the bottom right, but it could also be parts of an apple Kelly had
|
|
|
|
|
that day. ;-)
