Baby's 4th Scanning

Usually during 14th - 20th weeks of prenancy, every mother is required to do a blood test and a detail scanning of the baby. My wife has done both of tests together with an additional "Down's syndrome Test". The blood test result turned out to be very good (Honey, I love U !) & also it is negative on the down's syndrome test.

1st picture = A close-up image showing our baby's head (eyes, nose, mouth & ears) & heart

2nd picture = A picture showing the upper body

3rd picture = A full body image of our 19 weeks & 4 days old baby
(Scanning was done on 23rd August)

Dr Jason Lim was happy on the overall growing progress of the baby in terms of its size and the weight. However, the gender of the baby still cannot be determined. He has mentioned that it's quite difficult to get a very clear ultrasound scan image for my wife. If we really want to see a much clearer image, we can always choose to go for 3d/4d ultrasound scanning, which need to be booked and arranged prior to the scanning.

Anyway, he has advised us to wait until the baby is >28th weeks old, where baby's organ is huge enough to give a clearer and better scanning result. We agree with the doctor as we are more than happy to know that baby is doing great. Gender is not really important, it will just make our shopping direction clearer. :p
