13 Week Scan

Today Christy and I went for the 13 week genetic screening scan. Well, when I say Christy and I, I mean Christy had the scan, and I watched. They wouldnt scan me for some reason…

It was pretty neat to see it in action. The technology they have today is awsome. The machine even keeps the gel warm!!! The lady looked at a small film of fluid underneath the skin on the back of the babies neck. The size of it gives an indication of the chances of the baby being born with a genetic abnormality. It was quite small, which is good. 😀 Christy also had some blood taken, so we will know the results in the next week or two.

To check out our very very first baby pics, see the gallery here.
