Pregnant after 35

xp: A/S today, Boy is like his dad, uncooperative!

Haha, I joked w/DH that Baby Boy is going to be trouble. Had my a/s today on my twins, all looks good so far! Both Baby Boy and Baby Girl measuring on target at 18w3d. My MFM was able to get almost all measurements except for getting a good look at the heart and the face for Baby Boy, since Boy was lying face down, spine up. MFM tried poking and prodding at him but he wouldn't move! So we'll get another look in a couple of weeks. I did get a 3D/4D shot of Baby Girl, which I wasn't expecting, but here she is, snuggled up close to the placenta, her left hand across her face.

  • LOL.  DD was a total PITA for my a/s.  It took almost an hour and a half because she would not move into the position the tech needed to get the last few shots of her heart.  I had to drink a bunch of juice, eat candy, and walk laps around the building!

    Glad to hear your LOs are doing well in there!

    I had thought about drinking a bunch of juice before the scan but then I was afraid they would be moving around too much to get the measurements!

    That's what happened to me... :) At my 18 week scan, baby was upside down and wouldn't budge so Dr. had me come back.  Second time around, I drank juice and cold water and baby wouldn't stop moving. Great news that all is going well!

  • Yeah, I think getting everything they need for twins in one shot is pretty tough. Glad to hear your LO's are doing well!
  • So glad babies are looking great!  That is a cool picture.  I had to go back after my a/s too because baby wouldn't move.
