20 Week Scan

Its funny how some times things go slow and others they go really fast. Waiting for the 12 week scan took for ever. We had our little calendar that we were crossing off the weeks and it was a very nervous and exciting time.

The 20 week scan came around so fast. We had spent a week in Samoa which make the time fly and with school starting the first couple of weeks just slipped by. Before we both realised it was time to the 20 week scan and to see our baby again.

Chelsea is definatly showing now with a nice round tummy. Its very firm to touch so we know that baby is in there and growing well. She has also started to feel it move a little and I'm sure one night I even felt the baby move.

After school we rushed across town to the Rototuna Radiology where we were booked in for the scan. We arrived just in time and were sent straight in.  It was amazing to see baby again and so large.

We were both amazed at how much we were able to see. All the bones as well as the heart, kidneys, bladder and brain. It was reasuring to know that everything was where it was meant to be and that baby is growing well.

As for the sex... I made sure that we didn't find out. Chelsea feels a little bit let down that she doesn't know and going through all the scan photos she was trying to find any signs of a penis.

Everything is done now, no more scans... Its just a waiting game...

12 week scan

It's 3.54 on a Wednesday afternoon and we are sitting in the Anglesea Imagery centre waiting room ready to go in for the scan. Really excited but also a little nervous. It has taken so long to get to 12 weeks and now I'm still waiting.

Had the general texts from the parents stating that we HAVE to txt them straight away telling them how many babies are in Chelsea's tummy. It's just a waiting game now... 

And we are in

In the middle of the scan. Trying to get baby to behave so we can get some good measurements.  

After another person tried the scan still no movement. We have a couple of printed pictures and are back in the waiting room waiting for a disc of pictures. Scan dates place December 25th as due date.
