@ksmwalters@ashleyf911 I'm so happy my anatomy scan buddies had a great day! All weekend I was trying to get on here to find out about you ladies! AFM my anatomy scan could have gone better. My little guy was not in the mood to be bothered. I have to go back Friday so they can complete his heart pics. Otherwise everything else was perfect! This is the best pic of him so far. He already has all my
We had our anatomy scan this morning! So exciting to watch our baby boy! Everything is looking great and he was moving all over the place giving us some great pictures!
I had a Level 2 Ultrasound done this morning - I explained it all in the 10/23 Questions thread. We got a few pictures of our little guy and he definitely has his sister’s profile in this one!
TTC #1 Since April 2014
Me: 27 | DH: 31
08/2006 - Laparoscopy/Stage 1 Endo
10/2014 - Bloodwork normal, HSG all clear
10/2014 - DH's SA 15mil/mL, 35% motility, 6% morphology
Baby had his anatomy scan on Monday! Everything looked great... that they could see. We have to do a follow up because our little boy was squirmy and all curled up. When he uncurled, it was to stick his feet over his head and play with his toes. Not a good way to get a shot of the heart! Anyone else ever have to go in for a followup?
@jgl907 I just went through this! My little dude was super uncooperative during his first anatomy scan. We couldn't get his heart scanned. So I went back a week later and he did awesome! So no worries. Those LO like to do their own thing
Had our AS today. Everything looks great and baby is measuring right on track. Waved at us a few times even. Baby cooperated and hid the goods the entire time so even my Dr/midwife don’t know if we have a boy or girl on the way! So it will be a big surprise for all of us. So excited to be Team green this time around. (Edit to fix pic)
@justkeeptrying we thought about doing that with this baby! If we ever have a third, I think we’ll do that. Good luck! I’m sure once the “newness” wears off it’ll be easy peasy not to tell people.
At the beginning of this pregnancy I was dead set on Team Green, but A/S day came and my willpower was not there. Our baby girl says hi!
Also, what thread would be a good place to ask about Velamentous Cord Insertion? It was discovered during the scan and I'm just not sure where to post it but don't want to make a new thread either.
@day38, I’m not sure to be honest. However, I wouldn’t mind you making a new thread as they suspect that might be the case for me as well. They couldn’t see cord insertion, but from what they could see and the type of previa I have, I guess the chances are high. I have another AS at 24 weeks with my MFM to hopefully find out for sure as well as rechecking the heart and previa. It would be great to have a thread I could go back to and ask questions or read responses instead of search an symptom thread 2 weeks later.
All was well at today's ultrasound, and our little one was super cooperative - except when the tech tried getting a shot of baby's eyes. We are team boy! He apparently likes to cover his face with his arms like mommy!

@antoto I think all these LO don't like close ups! They want us to be in suspense My baby looked great today. My cervix not so great but I'm making arrangements to leave work mid January. This little guy will have me all to himself the last six weeks
Baby looks healthy and good in yesterday's efforts, but would NOT cooperate for the ultrasound... he is curled face down around my cervix, so I have to go back in today (hoping he is flipped and facing up) to try to get better shots of his face and heart. I ate a sandwich, drank a Gatorade, and did some yoga in the u/s office to try to get him to flip, but no luck! Baby boy is adorable and stubborn, it seems. Fingers crossed for the necessary shots today!
He’s in the 51st percentile and everything looks normal. There’s a calcification on a heart valve but hen doctor said she isn’t worried. Look at his cute little feet!
Anatomy scan yesterday at 21+3 and here he is! Another little boy for me! He was very active and moved so much it was hard for the tech to get any shots of anything but the sex! I had to walk around and drink orange juice to get him to turn face up for the profile shot. Looks like he was smiling knowing he was giving us a hard time
Had an ultrasound yesterday for 20+4 everything seems just so perfect with the baby even tho most of the pregnancy has been full of issues. I was wishing for a girl so much and you guys cannot imagine my face when the dr said its a girl. I feel soooo blessed
Got to see my little girl today! We’re at 26+5, she’s measuring at 27+1. So not too much of a difference! She was sucking on her hand and I’m still convinced she looks exactly like her big brother! We have another growth scan in 4 weeks and I’m so excited.
He was moving a bit too much to get a picture that wasn’t distorted, but seeing actual features was so fun! I will be having monthly scans due to gestational diabetes, he is already measuring large in the 73rd percentile, but my insulin dose was raised today so hopefully we can keep him growth on track.
Well, the one nice thing about all the monitoring I need is lots of ultrasounds, weekly from here. Today was just to check amniotic fluid levels, very oddly they were the very low end of normal last Friday at the hospital, and the very upper end of normal today. Who knows with my body, but I got some smooshy face pictures of my little Romeo
Also, his nose looks like a little gumdrop just stuck on, and I think he is going to look like a little clone of my husband, who I’m happy to report does not have a nose like a gumdrop now, lol.
Re: **Ultrasound thread**
Had my AS on Friday. Here is a picture. She was moving A LOT and the tech had trouble getting good shots. It took forever.
Also, what thread would be a good place to ask about Velamentous Cord Insertion? It was discovered during the scan and I'm just not sure where to post it but don't want to make a new thread either.

She was moving around like a little gymnast the whole time but never moved her hand from in front of her face

My two boys at 26 weeks. I love how you can see their individual features!
