A swirling grey cloud with a baby lurking somewhere

Today was our 20 week scan. I always find ultrasound scans a headwreck to watch. Like TV interference with the occassional arm or leg popping into view. It’s very difficult to determine what anything is most of the time.

The tension is always enormous as the operator silently measures head diameter, heart valves and god knows what else and you sit there just wishing they would give you a sign that everything is as it should be. This morning, it seemed like an eternity before we were pronounced ‘good to go’. In fact, it was only on the second attempt (after a walk and a coffee to get the baby to change position) that all the required scans of the baby could be completed.

Everything was good though. More than half way there now.

    It’s the blurry peanut-shaped thing. Usually.

    I saw that movie -
    A view with a womb
