Ramsey at 31 weeks: 4D Sono

Ramsey In Action


Ramsey is now 31 weeks in my tummy and is certainly getting bigger and bigger every day. I'm measuring right on track and the doctor feels that everything is going well. Ramsey's heartbeat was 149bpm at this visit. He is still very active and loves to put his head on my bladder and smash it on my uterin wall for extra cushion. In recent sono's, Ramsey always has his hand close to his face. As you will see in the 4D sono clip, his right hand stays snug by his right ear the whole time.

Watching the sono was an amazing experience for Shaun and I. I fought back my tears so I didn't seem like a little whimp, but the frog in my throat was croaking. Ramsey was laying in the posterior position (head down) with his face up; most of his head and neck were up against my left hip pretty tightly so I had to lay on my side for the technician to view him. He didn't move around very much during the sono. He was very content with where he was and refused to let us see "everything". He already has his father's stubborn streak! He certainly doesn't get that from me. LOL. We noticed that Ram has long eyelashes, round and full chubby cheeks, a cute little button nose, and all his fingers and toes are in tact on the right side. He flashed his foot up by his face several times for us to see and he wiggled his fingers around a lot. I immediately started counting. He grinned several times throughout the sono which was the sweetest thing I've ever seen!

I can't stop staring at the photos we brought home. I really think he looks like Shaun already with the exception of his little nose. We immediately put the DVD into the player when we got home and watched it. It's about 20 minutes long and with every minute....I fell more in love. I can't wait for him to get here! 9 more weeks.......tick, tock, tick, tock.

I think its funny how he looks so peaceful and content in that video when you always tell me "he never stops moving", "he never sleeps", "he always kicks me". That video makes him look like a little angel and you're just making up stories! haha! Love it. BTW, I love how you have absolutely NO stretch marks and can still lift your shirt up to take a picture. I have so many stretch marks I barely undressed by myself in the dark! j/k. haha! Keep showing the budda belly chica!
