3-D Baby

Today we got to see baby Jameson in 3-D and no you don't need the special glasses as my dad joked. It was so neat...way better than the regular ultrasound you get done at your Dr's. office. We brought along the grandparents minus one grandpa and one of the uncles. There was a huge projector screen on the wall so nobody had to crowd around the tiny ultrasound screen. Jameson stayed in the same position the entire time. The only thing he moved were his hands and feet occasionally. Go figure since he's all over the place when I'm winding down and trying to get ready to sleep. The lady who was doing the ultrasound had me roll over to my side twice to see if that would move him but no...he just stayed happily in his position with his head down and his feet by my ribs. She also patted my belly and pushed on it to see if that would jar him and again nope...just as content as could be. But at least he was in a position so we could see his face.

We determined that he has my lips and nose. And he'll also be right handed since that's hand he played with the most and moved around. My dad who couldn't be there thought it was super neat when he got to see the pictures. Everyone..well maybe just the grandma's thought it was super neat how you could really see all the details of his face. We even got to see him open his eyes...so cool.
It definitely feels more real since we can actually make out that yes there really is a baby inside there and not just a blob. I'm so excited for him to come so we can compare his real face to his picture face.

With our 30 minute session we got 3 "color" pictures...which are really just sepia tones. And we got about 10 black and whites. Plus a CD with 85 picture images and a DVD of the entire 30 minute "show".

Here's some of my favorites of Baby Jameson at 27 weeks and 3 days.
His little mouth open.


He's got his little hand up.
The stuff coming out of his mouth is actually his umbilical cord. It looks like bubbles on the DVD when the she switched back to the 2-D version.


Guess he was done with all the pictures being taken. =)

Sucking his thumb and holding up his other 4 fingers.


He was obsessed with trying to eat his hand.
