Today we had the official regular ultrasound. I had one in week 7 when I was puking my guts out to check how far and how many, then one week 13 because the midwife had a brainfart and totally scheduled me wrong. So today we had the regular one. I liked the technician - she showed us a lot and narrated as she was doing it what she was looking at. Plus she printed 5 photos where you usually get 1 view. The measurements set my official due date now at January 3rd. The placenta is low, so I have to have another ultrasound November 11th to determine if it is Placenta Previa.

Haylie said "Det ser ut som en dödskalle" - It looks like a skull. Hard to explain ultrasound to a five-year-old. I think she liked the computer animations of fetuses that I showed her on Babycenter better.

A good shot of the arm, hand, scapula and ribs.

This one isn't as active as Haylie was. She was doing flips in the womb, and it felt like it constantly. They had trouble getting measurements with her because she was moving constantly. With this one I have just been feeling some gentle jostling - and that is about all it has been on the ultrasounds too. Not much action. At one point it turned its back to us, and at one point the knees were up by its forehead and then they went down. No flips, in other words.

Here you can see both hands in front of the head.

Here was a good profile where you can see the soft tissues of the face. With Haylie, you could see on the ultrasound that she had Stefan's head shape and profile. This one I am not so sure - might be my forehead.
