Gemma’s Pregnancy - Week 27

It’s been a couple of weeks since the last update on Gemma’s pregnancy.

There has been some excitement this week, as we went for a private scan. This was mainly as a reassurance aid for Gemma, but it was also a chance to have another look at our baby.

We’d made an appointment at a place called Innervision in Warrington.

Once we were in the scanning room, we were put at ease by the sonographer. He was very chatty, reassuring Gemma, and myself.

First thing that we did was to confirm the sex of the baby that we were having. At one of our previous scans we were told that it was a boy, but the sonographer at the time would not say that she was 100% certain.

This time, there was no uncertainty. The baby is definitely a boy. I would post a photo here, but Gemma has banned me from putting the picture here. She wants to keep it for his 18th birthday party, to show all his friends and possibly a girlfriend.

There was also no sign of the soft marker that had shown itself at the earlier scan, which was a huge relief.

We did get a few other picture, two of which I have posted here.

Until the next update…

    Absolutely freakin awesome. We are booking that scan soon too! We were told 80% sure it is a girl and she had seen no reason to think it was a boy, so looking forward to a bit of confirmation on that too!

    What package did you get? We looked about and they have DVD’s etc. Are they worth it? Do you see a lot of movement etc? Personally I cant wait to have that scan!!

    Great to hear the soft marker was not a problem like you said it wouldnt be too. Looks like everything is going great! Really happy for you!

    We got the basic package, includes 4 prints, but we added a CD of all the captures, for an extra £10.I’d say it was worth it, especially as it gave Gemma the reassurance that she was after.
    I’m not sure about the other packages and their worth. From what I saw the little guy was moving about, but not that much. I suppose it comes down to what you want, and how much you want to pay.
    It was a relief not to see that soft marker, so that’s a little weight of our minds. :D
    Let me know how it goes.
