Glamour Shots!



Thanks again to everyone for all the notes and well wishes for my appointment this morning. It went really well - PHEW. I'm measuring about 2.3, which is even better than the last appointment. The doctor was so pleased that she didn't even do a full exam (what a nice treat!).

The ultrasound technicians at the Henry Ford Hospital in West Bloomfield are seriously fantastic. Despite the fact that things were running behind schedule (as they always seem to be in the high-risk maternal/fetal medicine office), the tech today decided that this baby was in such a great position and cooperating so nicely that it would be "fun" to take a few extra minutes and get some 3D shots of her. It makes such a difference when doctors and hospital staff are so kind and personable and go the extra mile because they know it will make your day. And while I've always been a little weirded-out by 3D ultrasound images, and the shot is a little blurry, it was watching it live on the screen that was pretty spectacular. I might have even shed an involuntary tear at the sheer awesomeness of it. Or the tear could have been for the baby, who looks like she is going to probably have my giant McMillan nose Sorry baby. :)
