Ultrasound #.... Who Knows?! I've Lost Count!

Yesterday I had my follow-up ultrasound to check on something they saw with my placenta a few weeks ago. I had to go into a more high tech ultrasound place to have the exam done and the lady spent a good 45 minutes checking out everything. Justin and I had so much fun seeing out sweet little girl again and luckily we came out of there with nothing but good news! There is some blood on my placenta but it is not causing a threat to anything as of now and isn't anything to worry about- whew! Our little girl is 14 oz and is in the 56th percentile, (I had no idea that they do percentile stuff even while they are in the womb!), so she is growing right on track! 

Here she is showing off her flexibility with her little feet right above her forehead. It's amazing that there is enough room in there to do that!

Here is her big foot.. It's inevitable that all of our children will  have big feet. Justin wears 14's and I wear 10's. 

But the coolest part was getting to see her in 3D! I have never had one of these before and it was so neat but yet so creepy at the same time!

Her head is shaped normally, I promise. Here you can see her laying her head on my placenta with her right hand holding the umbilical cord. I thought it was funny that she was using my placenta as a pillow....

And I know that these pictures can look a little funny and are not a super accurate picture of exactly what your baby will look like, but I can definitely see that this little girl will have Justin's big, beautiful lips. Who could miss those things?! Ethan has them and I always hoped that one of our girls would get them as well... they are perfect lipstick lips!

I have a doctors appt next Friday so I'll update you guys on how I'm doing then! Maybe I'll even throw in a belly shot or two :)

Wow! Those pictures turned out so good. I love the one with the foot over her head and just the foot shot. Glad everything is going well, always a relief to hear each appt!

I love those 3D shots, they are amazing. My sis-in-law gets lots of those when she is pregnant (her doctor loves ultrasounds) and I find it interesting to see how much her kids look like their 3D ultrasounds. It is incredible. And adorable. Glad she is doing well.

Ok maybe this sounds weird but the 3D ultrasound makes the little baby look like Ethan! So cute!
