Topic: I get to see my baby today! Posted: 10 May 2007 at 8:48am |
Having only had one scan throughout my pregnancy, I kinda got used to the fact that I probably wouldn't be able to see him till he arrived, but since my little monkey decided to turn breech I get a sneak preview today at 38 weeks!
Is it silly to worry that something will be wrong when my 20 week scan showed everything was perfectly normal?
What if he's a she?! What if he's grown extra fingers or legs?!
My mum is coming along with and she is SO excited!
MW will be here in 45 mins to check my BP so I have to think calming thoughts..

Yay! I loved seeing my bubs on scans! Crossing fingers and toes for your BP to be down and little man to have turned!

Thank you!
I've got everything crossed too! My BP is usually good early in the morning so hopefully it will be good today.
I'll just lie down and rest till five minutes before she gets here and try to trick my body into behaving!

Good luck today!
I found the later scans so weird, it was like "there's a whole person (or two  ) in there!" On my last scan at 36 weeks they could even see Siennas hair, it was pretty cool.

Ohhhh yay I'm so excited. I didn't know you could see so much!
For some reason I can't stop thinking that he's going to be a she.
Guess I'll find out soon!

How exciting! Bubs will be so big on the scan, I remember seeing the outline of DD's mouth at her 38 week scan, and her hair.
Tip: Lie down for as long as possible before your MW arrives and then try to get her to take your BP while you are lying down. Good luck!

Well BP has dropped a bit, but she's still not happy with it. 110/94. It's the bottom number she doesn't like, but she said if it goes anywhere near 160/100, then I'm off to hospital. Thankfully my bloods are still fine and BP isn't rising!
Off to catch the bus now to meet my mum and then off to my scan! So excited now!
If he's breech she is definitely recommending I have a c-section. She said I can choose to birth naturally if I want to, and she will support me in that decision, but she recommends c-section as it's my first baby.
Ugh, my scan is costing me $30! Oh well.

How exciting that you get to see bubs today....hopefully he has turned.
Glad your BP has dropped a bit, mine has been normal right through out my pregnancy but it was a bit high on Tuesday when I saw my MW but she wasn't too concerned about it because it was only up a litle bit.

Here's hoping for your scan!
I loved the later scans (Briona kept getting turning and then growth scans - and then was 8lb4oz LMAO), they are so much clearer and more like a baby.
