Brandon, you're grounded!

I just got back from a 3D ultrasound this morning.  I never thought that I would ever want one cause they used to freak me out.  I once saw a 3D ultrasound where the baby opened his eyes!  AAHHH! It was nuts and scary all at the same time, but I guess if you were the baby's parents it would be different.  I found out about this place from a friend of mine Sokuntha, who is also expecting her first baby shortly after me.  She was sweet enough to tell me that she heard that there was this new Seimens building who happens to be doing free u/s.  She went there a few times to get some pictures done of their little one and she said they were all so nice and patient!  I guess they have a bunch of new techs and they need people to practice on, so I thought why not?  There's really nothing to lose, plus who wouldn't want to take a sneak peak of their little one's cute face?

When I got there everyone was super friendly and nice.  I think that they could tell how excited I was cause they where so quick to get me back.  The lady did my scan was so sweet and patient. As soon as she started the very first thing that she noticed was that Brandon was breech.  She told me that I should inform my Dr. when I get a chance because around this time he should be head down.  (Brandon, that's strike 1 MR.!)

She then moved on and started to do his usual measurements and here is what she had:

Brandon at 32 weeks and 1 day

Weight: 4lbs, 4oz

43rd percentage (should be at 50)

She said that he was just a hair small, but it's ok.  His head is measuring a little big but nothing to worry about...great my poor vagina! (That's strike 2)

So when she finally started to do the 3D part, Brandon thought that it would be funny to conveniently press his face right on my placenta...what the heck?!  SO, she started jiggling my belly for him to move.  When she finally got him to move he then decided to put his foot right in front of his face!  COOL!  She proceeded to try to shake him and have me move in different positions, but he then thought that maybe putting his hand in front of his face would be funny too!  I then said "What a little pill he is already!"  The tech just laughed and said "I think he's gonna make you wait..."  I even went to the bathroom, drank water, and had a twix bar!  That's strike 3 Brandon!!  He is so grounded!!

SO, after about an hour we decided that he wasn't going to bless us by showing his cute face.  Oh well, good thing it was for free right?  Here are some of the pictures she captured!
