Anatomic Scan

Well today was the big day - and I was right! Max wore his 'big brother' shirt and everyone thought he was so cute (well, isn't he?!) First off, this is a stubborn little one who was content in an awkward position and would not budge. However, when the u/s tech was trying to look at arms/legs/hands/feet, they would not stay still long enough for us to get a good shot. They had me get up, jump around, shake my belly, touch my toes... nothing could get this little one to move. The u/s tech kept jabbing my belly with the probe with no luck! I needed confirmation of this little one's gender and fortunately we had a very nice tech who took her time while trying to get good shots, and did not rush us even though she was behind and there was a waiting room full of people. The pics I have from today are not very good, but I will share a few. I have to go back in three weeks for a repeat scan because the tech was not able to check the baby's facial profile or get all the shots of heart needed. What a stubborn little girl in my belly!

Skelator face!
