Baby Girl's 4D Ultrasound Pics

It's been a busy few days for us, today included. We had another 4-D ultrasound since Baby wouldn't cooperate last time and we also got some maternity photos taken by a friend! I just wanted to quickly share some of the 4D pics that we recieved today. The reason Baby Girl wouldn't cooperate is because she sleeps with her hands covering her face. She was like this even at our hospital ultrasound so I'm guessing that's her comfortable position. She did a bit better today but the pics still aren't as clear as what others may get. I guess that's the risk you take when you do these ultrasounds but it was still amazing to just watch her yawn, smile and move around...even if her face was buried in the placenta or covered with her hands and feet. :) 

She reminds me so much of Kaiden in this picture. She definitely has the same nose as him. ^^

It was pretty awesome watching her smile... ^^

Our little sleepyhead ^^

She was getting very doze covering her face with her hands and feet. Not sure how this position could be comfortable... ^^

It almost looks like she is praying!

Pointing her fingers at the camera :)

My little hippie child...Kaiden gave us "the bird" at his 4D ultrasound and she threw this up lol. Hopefully it's a foreshadow of her chill personality.

A traditional shot. This way you can see her arm on her face. :)

Pregnancy: Week 30

Each week becomes more real to me. Her kicks get stronger. I can feel little hands and feet scraping the inside of my belly. It's a crazy thought that in a little over two months our family will grow. Pregnancy is such a beautiful process and this second time around I've come to appreciate it so much more. I'm definitely slowing down, though. If I carry too much, I start to feel it in my sciatic nerve. It's much harder for me to get up the stairs (so I try to minimize my trips as much as possible haha.) I can't stand for very long periods... Gosh, I sound like an old person haha.Baby Size & Development:Cabbage. Baby should weigh approximately 3 lbs. Her brain is continuing to develop and is starting to have those little grooves and ridges. She is also beginning to regulate her own body temperature. She will continue to gain 1/2 a pound each week which means I will only be getting bigger from here on out!Signs & Symptoms:Rib kicks. Yepp. It's that time of pregnancy. I've begun to feel her poke at my ribs.Itchy belly. Does that sound weird? Because my skin is stretching at such a fast rate, I have to constantly moisturize it to ensure I don't get more stretch marks than necessary. I actually got a pre-natal massage when my mom was here and the lady complemented me on how soft my skin was! ;)Best Moment This Week:As I mentioned in a previous post, we attempted a 4D ultrasound. She kept covering her face so we have to re-do it but I was still able to see some of her features so clearly! Technology is so amazing.Worst Moment This Week:Probably just feeling tired constantly. It's bad when your mind is going a million miles an hour wanting to do things but your body can't keep up.What I Most Look Forward To:We are re-doing our ultrasound this week and also potentially having a friend shoot some maternity pictures. :)
