I saw a flyer at work indicating 2nd year sonogram students at the St.Cloud Technical College were were needing clinical experience for ultrasounds and looking for pregnant women. So I called and scheduled an ultrasound! Paul and I went yesterday(11/19) for the ultrasound at 35 weeks, 3 days along. We got to see our baby who is growing healthy, heart beat of 141, head is down, saw all 4 chambers of the heart, hands, feet, tummy, and the profile of the head. The student told us she hadn't done an ultrasound with a mom so far along an she kept saying "you're all baby" She said it was hard to get good pictures because baby was so big and not much room to move around. The ultrasound was about an hour and we were sent home with a CD of the images! It was amazing to see the growth of baby from the 20 week ultrasound to this one!
And today (11/20) we had our 36 week appt with our doctor! It was a shorter visit as he had a patient in labor but it was a good, quick appt. Baby's heart beat was around 140, head is down and baby is of healthy size. I only measured 30 weeks (which made me nervous) but my doctor said he's not concerned cause baby is sitting so low in my pelvis and that why measurement is off. He said we'll monitor and possibly have an ultrasound at 38 weeks. I will have weekly appts now until baby comes! We are quite excited for this little one's arrival!
