Week 34 Ultrasound

Today I had my 34 week ultrasound! John wasn't able to come because he had a snow day on Wednesday, and couldn't afford to miss any more rehearsal time with the kids. My mom came over last night and came to the ultrasound with me, which was good.
Over all, the ultrasound went well - the baby is weighing in at about 5 pounds, 9 ounces. The doctor didn't change my due date at all, but when the sonographer took the measurements, the baby was measuring a week or two later than what I'm told I am. I kind of feel like the doctor should have changed the due date, but oh well - it's not my call. The baby was very uncooperative with the pictures, so all we were able to get was a very bad one of the face, and some of the hands and one of a foot. But the heartbeat was 139, which is good, and everything else looked fine too. The thing that was the most amusing about the whole thing was when we discovered we could see the baby's hair on the ultrasound!!! That was wild! It will be interesting to see what color it is!

Anyway, I will update with the week 35 info tomorrow. Without further ado, I give you ultrasound photos!

Aww Melissa! It's amazing what technology can do these days.

By the looks of the difficulty you had getting some pictures...looks like your baby's camera shy. I hope she/he gets over that soon...we all want to see the little tyke!
