1st trimester screening


Went in for our first trimester screening. Basically they do a ultrasound and measure back behind the spine, it is proven that babies born with downs syndrom have more fluid there.


James and I decided we would do this test since there is no harm to the baby, and even if it came back with probabilities of downs we would not terminate. We would love our baby no matter what.


James, my mom and I went for the ultrasound. They have the ultrasound project on a tv now besides the screen the doctor looks at. James was so cute, he was right by that screen looking at the baby.


It actually looks like a baby now. The tech said the measurements were great, just have to do blood work.


We got two pictures of the baby. We were so happy!
