Today we (Joel, Eli, and Talia, along with our friend/birth photographer Kim) went to See Baby for our anatomy scan. We also had the excitement of finding out whether Little Foot is a boy or a girl! This is the first time I have invited anyone other than Joel to an anatomy scan, and it sure made for some memorable moments!
So, here's a few peaks at our Little Foot....
This one is a straight - on of the face.
You can see the belly and a hand in this one...
And of course, what you really came for.....
And if you weren't sure what you are looking at.....
Eli was excited about another brother, but Talia.....well, Talia burst into big huge tears. She cried and cried for over 10 min. Eli tried to console her by telling her, "G-d wanted us to have another brother." It was really sweet.
After the scan, I sat down with Dr. Bootstaylor and he gave me a really awesome fetal anatomy lesson via the pictures they got. The placenta is down and in the back, the cord is inserted directly in the center of the placenta and has three vessels, and all kinds of other things. LF is measuring in the upper 90% for head size and tummy size, but upper 60's for femur length. Is anyone shocked that he's short? Overall, he looks perfect. I can't wait to meet him in another 20 weeks!
