Third Trimester Ultrasound

Kimbarbour08

I didn't see a thread for regular old fashioned ultrasounds for this trimester, so here one is! I know not everyone will have these later ultrasounds, but here's a spot to share if you do

We had these done at 27.5 weeks due to my low-lying placenta/family history of heart defects. I was pretty underwhelmed with how the pictures turned out. At this point I'm just ready to see her in person!

We had one at 28w3d because we needed more views of his heart and mouth/lips because he kept his face covered and his heart wasn't developed enough at the A/S. And wouldn't you know the stinker kept his face covered with his arm again haha. But they got what they needed this time and we got the good news of no abnormalities!

We just had an US on Friday to see if my low placenta was, well, no longer low. It isn't! All is good, baby's head is past the placenta so we are very happy! Pictures didn't come out as great as the 20 week, but we can still see his little face which is great and he's healthy which is what matters!

@Kimbarbour08 ours didn't as well! I figured they would come out better, but nope.

@egraves4 I think ours was a little my fault . . . I didn't realize they wanted me to have a full bladder so I had JUST used the bathroom before going in . . . oops! Oh well, they were still able to get what we needed for info.

Done at 29 weeks. I'll have another at 34 weeks and then possibly another at 38. He's measuring really large already so they're keeping an eye on it.

Had a growth scan due to GD. He's actually measure small which is weird, so we will have another one in January to check growth again.

Just had a sneak peek this morning! Baby girl has some full pouty lips and chubby cheeks! 32 weeks on the dot today! She's measuring about 3.5lbs!

Our baby boy! U/S done 2 weeks ago at 29 weeks. He has been a stubborn little guy and it took three ultrasounds to get a good view of his heart. They also checked measurements at this appt and he was measuring two weeks ahead.

I just had one last Thursday at 31w2d.  I actually didn't get any new pictures, but the doctor was really happy that my placenta looks like it's behaving properly and #3 is growing right on track.  He said baby is about 3lbs 10oz right now.  So i'm so happy about that and no more US.

@DrillSergeantCat probably the most handsome 3D/4d I've ever seen!!

Thank you! I'm quite partial to it myself. Now...I will admit that I have others where he's chewing on the umbilical cord and he looks like a zombie from the Walking Dead.

Hahahaa that's what I'm used to seeing

The below pic is from an ultrasound I did at 26 weeks1d. He was exactly 2lbs. I had another ultasound 30weeks1d and he was exactly 3lbs. I found out he has hair and he's still head down. I had ultrasounds to check my placenta.

Growth ultrasound last week at 29 weeks due to GD. He measured 2.5 lbs...another in 4 weeks and then once a week until d-day.

Wow!! I've never seen such a clear 3D image at 29 weeks... Gorgeous!

31 weeks and 4 days.  Per my visit yesterday - he is already 5.6 lbs and is head down and I still have so many weeks to go! The doctors attribute some of it to GD - but I've measuring a couple weeks ahead since I was 17 weeks. I'm pretty sure there is going to be c-section unless he slows down.

@bumpadmin, can we have this pinned and the second tri ultrasound one unpinned?

@VMonte my coworker's son was born at 32w (water broke) and was 5lb 7oz! She didn't have GD, and is an average build person. My DD was 37w and 6lbs. It's always interesting to see the variations in birth weights.

Little one at about 29 weeks (elective 3D ultrasound).

Oops, here they are.
