Ultra Sound



Well here is the latest Ultrasound (US) that Holly has had done on little baby rodrigo. Everything is great. Holly's low-lying placenta has migrated away from her cervix (which is a good thing) and the baby is incredibly active. She was kicking the US transponder every time the tech would place it on Holly's belly. She was also doing flips and rolling around having fun...I guess. Let me explain what you are looking at from left to right. To the left-middle of the picture there is a spot that looks hollow...that is the heart. Going to the right you have the chest and then it curves down into black...that is the neck. Then you have the chin and lips and nose...this is a picture of her profile. If you look right around her lips you can see bubbles. She was swallowing the amniotic fluid and spitting it back out to make bubbles. My girl is talented! Doing flips, making bubbles...what's next...curing cancer from the womb??? Anyways...I posted 2 pictures for you to look at. One is without lines for you to gaze in amazement at the miracle of birth and the other is like a cheat sheet just in case you have no idea how to look at an US and my explanation sucks...we still have no name.
