19 week : The detailed scan
We anticipated this scan, like a little girl anticipating for her daddy and mommy to bring her to the macdonalds.... heh heh...
It's fast, 19wks...im halfway thru my 2nd trimester.
Had the detailed scan scheduled at TMC. 30 mins waiting time, 30mins of ultrasound scanning.
I have to tell you it is such a wonderful experience!
The radiographer oriented us right away when we entered the room, 'mother pls put ur bag here, husband you can sit here...'
So, as i was lying there, she squeezed the gel on my tummy, and with a friendly smile, she told us that today we will be seeing alot of things....
the journey begins....
there were so many things to scan for:
-biparietal diameter
-head circumference
-transcerebellar diameter
-cistern magna
-nasal bone
-nuchal fold thickness
-abdominal circumference
-femur length
-humerus
-est fetal weight
-heart action
-fetal movements
-amniotic fluid
-placenta
-brain
-nose/lips
-spine
-neck and skin
-chest
-four chamber view and outflow tracts of the heart
-kidneys and bladder
-skeleton
-hands, fingers, feet and toes
The medical jargons must have bored you. haha....
As the radiographer scanned for the items, she keep saying "ok, good, the measurement is good, bb is fine...growing well....HEY, look! bb is sucking thumb!!"
haha....its so farnie....we really witness her sucking her thumb, the movement of the mouth and the thumb, its so really cute!
then, as the radiographer is ready to search for bb's feet, bb grabbed one of her feet and refused to release it.... haha....not even when we shake my tummy....naughty naughty....
then, when she is ready to scanned her lips, our bb covered the mouth with her hands....haha....
must beat buttock issit?
this foto doesn't do justice, bcos u can't tell the movement.... :)
Radiographer finished off with saying, 'ur bb is on the chubby side'....yeah!!! all my rojak food pays off! haha...
the entire scan cost $127, with $4 parking fee.
Oh yes!! it's confirm, its a GIRL! =)
