4D = Time
May 8, 2010
Yesterday, through the magic of modern medicine, we had a 3D/4D Ultrasound of the baby. No, we did not get to wear 3D glasses, although I’m sure all 3 of us would have enjoyed that!! For those of you that don’t know (I didn’t know), 4D = Time. The images are captured so quickly that they become sort of a ‘movie’, and in essence you also get to see the baby ‘moving’ in real time in utero.
ANYWAY!! This was way up there on my list of the coolest things I’ve ever seen!! We were able to watch the baby stretch, smile, pout, suck his hand and more! It was really incredible, and so exciting!! We were sent home with 53 pictures, and a movie of the appointment! This was an early birthday present for me this year, and I gotta tell ya … it did NOT disappoint!!
Here are two pictures, a face-front, and a profile:
We’ve made it to 32-1/2 weeks, and are hoping to make it to 36-37 weeks. The end is FINALLY in sight, and the goal this time does not feel so overwhelming!! YAY!!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the special mothers I know – there are SO MANY OF YOU!!

Look’s like he’s made of Gold! What a gem. Great job Megan. Miss you.
I can’t believe we only get to see 2 of the 53 pic’s. Oh well. I really need to come and see you again…
