We had another US today (this one was optional and screens for the three most common genetic abnormalities). I decided to do it because I'm a planner and would rather know one way or the other, good or bad. Plus, why wouldn't we want to see our lil dude or dudette again? Our US tech was great, however after 20 minutes of unsuccessful attempts to move this bull headed baby (it moved every way except the correct way), she had me try a few things. I got up and walked around for five minutes, I coughed, I laid on my left side, and still nothing except a jumping baby. Even the doctor came in, but we couldn't get a good picture. He/she did show us it's foot and wave hello though! The jumping up on my uterus was also very entertaining. Literally at one point it turned it's back to us and jumped three times in a row. We have a video, but it's through an iphone in a dark room so it's not the clearest of videos, but you can at least get a glimpse of baby Bradley. The doctor thought everything looked great and said she didn't expect there to be any problems. They set me up for another US next week to try again just to make sure though. Darn, we have to look at our little guy or gal again. :)
We are going to start telling more people soon since I will be 12 weeks tomorrow! Woohoo! Cannot wait to let this bottled up anticipation out!
