Going for a 3rd 20 week scan!!!

Hiya ladies, not been on here for ages as work has been crazy but all starting to calm down now!



We had our second 20 week scan yesterday and we are having a lovely baby boy! We had to return as the first time we were scanned baby was curled up in a ball so the sonographer couldn't check the heart and face.



Yesterday, still pretty curled up but managed to check the face but still not the heart. After we got him to move out of his little ball, he insisted on waving his arms around so much she couldn't get a clear picture.



Seeing the consultant next time as they have more time so we'll just stay until we are sure everything there is okay.



He is definitely a little monkey, really hoping it's not a sign of things to come. On the plus side, get to see him wriggling around again.



Hope everyone else is doing well and enjoying their 20 week scans.

    Hope he co-operates on the third attempt, though I don't think I'd mind anther glimpse of our lo wriggling about. We had a scan with the consultant, and she was great I was sent out for a wander, again to completely empty my bladder and at that point he decided to show her his heart well for a little while before he rolled over again. It was long enough for her to be able to zoom in on all the separate chambers and make sure it's ok though.
