PERFECT!

I had my scan this morning and we have a very wriggly little bubba onboard! Bubs measured perfectly at 11w4d (so definately due 4th July 2011) and the initial tests for Downs Syndrome with the scan put us at very low risk but I still need to get the bloods to confirm. The skin fold was 0.9 and there was a very prominent nasal bone so the lady doing the scan said we are extremely low risk (PHEW!!) I am soooo relieved and amazed! The HG was just so giddy with excitement through the whole thing. The lady also kept commenting on how beautiful and perfect bubs looked. It took awhile to get all the measurements we needed as bubs wouldn't stay still and was waving and kicking around and doing somersaults. Heartbeat was recorded at 165bpm. I am so happy right now!

We are really having a baby! Wow! Maybe I can start to relax and get truly excited now! I have attached a couple of pics for you to see. Any guesses on the sex?

  2. So happy for you Haidee! Yes you really are having a baby. Woo Hoo! Sounds like your baby was just as excited in seeing mum and dad as you were seeing "him". I'm still predicting a boy.
    P.S I'm starting to post more regularly now on my blog if you have the time to pop in.

  11. Thanks everyone! We thought it was pretty cool ourselves and got a DVD of the whole scan so can rewatch it whenever we want :-) I think boy and have from the beginning but everyone is saying with a heartbeat like that then it's probably a girl. Not long until we find out now! Only about 8 weeks! Woohoo!
