Baby Pictures

Hey guys it's Will. Sarah's been after me to post something on here for a while so I figured I'd put up the ultrasound images from our last few visits to the doctor. Hope you all enjoy these as much as we do!

3-28-11 9 1/2 weeks

We were able to see the baby move for the first time on this visit. Ziggy (Justin nicknamed the baby Ziggy the Zygote and it stuck for me. I don't think Sarah likes it much, but since this is my blog I'll use it.) was kicking and waving his/her arms around and wiping his/her face. Mrs. Angie, our nurse practitioner, told us that it is a very good sign to see a baby moving at 9 1/2 weeks. There wouldn't be anything necessarily wrong if Ziggy hadn't been moving, but movement means healthy neurological development.

Baby's right profile. The head is on the left, if you look really closely there is a faint line in the bend of the "kidney bean" shape. That's an arm.



Baby's heart rate. I know that it's small but if you look at the baby you can see the arm much better in this one.


4-11-11 11 1/2 weeks.

Picture one is the Ziggy's heart rate. The round thing on the left of the picture is the top of Ziggy's head.


This is Ziggy's left profile. Ziggy looks a bit like an alien or even the Joker from Batman, but you can see an eye, nose and mouth.


This last one is the money shot. It's Ziggy's right profile, you can see the nose, an eye, an ear, the mouth, and is proof that Ziggy has five fingers on at least one hand.


There will be more pictures to come. Countdown to baby gender: 3 weeks and counting!

Love you all!
