Today after weeks of waiting, Darren and I went to have a 4D scan of our baby. I've been so looking forward to it since the start of August when Darren asked me what I would like for my birthday. Not being able to think of much else apart from 'baby stuff' I was able to say very quickly about the 4D scans which I had seen.
I am now 26 weeks into my pregnancy and this is the last chance to see the baby before the birth in December, and it was so worth it! We had been told at the 20 week scan that we were going to have a baby girl, followed by 'probably'! but today that was confirmed! We had all of her measurements checked, aswell as hearing a really strong heartbeat, and everything is going fantastically, we were even told that today she weighs 1lb 15ounces (nearly a bag of sugar!)
I had been advised to eat chocolate or drink a can of cola beforehand to wake her up so she was active and moving around lots during the scan, I did this but typically she was sleeping through most of it even with gentle prodding!
We were able to see fingers and toes and her pretty little button nose, It's amazing how much love you can feel for something you haven't properly met yet!
We were given a DVD of the scan and a CD with the 3D photo's on, I love them all, here are some of my favourites.
