Today we visited our friend Karen, who works for Philips (they make ultrasound machines and in this case the HD7 Ultrasound). She needed to practice on the new machine and asked Alyssa to be her guinea pig. We happily agreed. The last ultrasound was at 10 weeks and the little creature looked like a gummy bear and measured 3.3 cm. Today is 12 weeks and it looked a lot different, measuring 5.4 cm! Go baby, go. She was kind enough to give us a real show, complete with video. We are very lucky. Thank you, Karen!
I had a little fun with the files:
In some of these clips you can "see" the heartbeat. In the more still shots, keep a close eye on the chest for the movement of the blood rushing in and out. At the 0:37 time mark, around the small light blue bars in the middle of the screen, you can see it for a bit as she was actually measuring the heartbeat. So beautiful. This time it was about 164.
