12 Week Scan

Here is a picture from this morning's scan of our little bub. We had an appointment at 11.10, and after about 20 minutes they gave up and asked me to go for a walk, get a cold drink of water and then come back as they couldn't get the measurements required for the screening for down syndrome. Went back into the scan room and after 45 minutes the second scanner was finally able to get the measurement, our risk dropped from 1:776 to 1:7493 so an awesome result, who knows we could be the 1 but even if those were the odds then we would love this baby just as much.


So with a heart rate of 163 bpm and a LONG crown to rump (measured two weeks ahead) we will have an expected due date of 23.04.2011 with the average of all the measurements putting bubs gestational age at 12 weeks, 5 days so they won't move the EDD.

The scanners were extremely impressed with the pictures that they did get of bub, they say some of them had more details than they expect to see at this stage... so it looks like this baby will definitely take after me... just amazing ;-)

Looks like this baby will also get my nose ;-)
