Check him out pointing and telling sonogram tech to knock it off...
Ok, now that I'm out of the office and back in bed, I can share the most hilarious and fun sonogram appointment to date!! Let me tell you about my son, what a little comedian! First let's get the particulars out of the way: cervix is measuring fine, uterus and placenta are good, and umbilical cord is measuring on target. Slinky's heartbeat was 152, nice and strong, his four ventricles are formed and pumping as they should. His brain is forming perfectly (although they did try to give me a mini-heartattack, talking about he has a cyst in his brain [sidebar - most people have tiny ones in their brains, don't mean nothing] but they briefly panicked, had to track down my amnio results that I told them came back genetically clear and normal, but they had to be sure...the wait was debilitating, but alas his brain is a-ok). This appointment was also the other part of the Integrated Test where they checked for abnormalities in not only the heart and brain, but they looked closely at his stomach, kidneys, spine, anatomy, and bones. He is perfect on all counts. Now where is the hilarity, you ask? This baby was all over the place in ways I have never seen. First of all, he made it extremely difficult for the sono tech to zone in on any portion of his body to examine, the minute she zoned in on an area, a leg, arm, face, he would move. Then to top it off he was actually kicking where she was scanning, as if to say, "Don't you get that I don't want my picture taken?" Then he was shoving not one, but both hands and thumbs in his mouth, which I'd always heard but never seen. He also kept opening his mouth and it looked like he was screaming: "HEY LADY! QUIT POKING ME!" It got so bad, that the sono tech had to actually jiggle my belly to try to get him to comply, and that's when he put the finger out to tell her she was in a time out!! My daughter and I laughed so hard, and scary thing is when we did, he looked right at the screen and even gave us a few waves, which freaked DD out, "Omigod, mommy he can hear us!!" The tech was hysterical. We had so much fun in this appointment and got to rub DH's face in it because he was at work, I told him that I don't think there will ever be a more thorough or lengthy exam as this one. She measured every single part of his body and gave us close ups, Slinky definitely has DH's nose and lips...full, full, full. I'm very blessed, so very blessed!!
