Earlier this week, we had a 32-week ultrasound to check to make sure the new baby was growing at a normal pace. (As it turned out, we don’t have anything to worry about yet, as she’s currently at around the 84th percentile.)
The place where we go to visit the perinatologist has a very fancy ultrasound machine that can do what are called “4D ultrasounds.” Basically, they use computer imaging to try to create a semi-realistic picture of what a baby actually looks like. At the end of the appointment, we got a DVD movie of the ultrasound, including the parts that were done in 4D.
The 4D ultrasounds can be a little creepy, but we got some good shots of what the new baby looks like. We caught her sucking her thumb, yawning, and generally moving around a lot. She was very active during the whole appointment, so it was hard to get her to stay still long enough to get a fully unobstructed shot.
Still, it was pretty interesting for us to see a glimpse of what she will look like!
Here’s a movie I put together of all of the 4D footage we got:
