See You Soon, Danny Boy

One of the big advantages of being an old lady when you are pregnant is that the medical profession spoils you. Today I had my 6th and final ultrasound and once again they gave me a wonderful 3D picture as part of the service. This is Danny's lovely little face. He doesn't look too much like Jack I don't think. He has a bit of hair and his chin is elf-like and pointed, rather than Kirk Douglas-style like Jack's.
They're saying he weighs about 7 lb 14 oz already so will be over 9 lbs at birth. Everything looks great.
Well Danny my love, I'll see you in the flesh very soon.
Love you already, Mummy XXX

Can think of nothing more profound to say than 'Wow! He's amazing'

wow. that's fantastic. imagine that! you get to see the baby that is growing inside of you NOW! i can't get my head round it. when i was last pregnant, 23 yrs ago, i couldn't even figure out what the ultrasound was showing, it was so sketchy to me, and didn't learn the sex either.
he's gonna be a big lad that's for sure.

What an incredible picture! I can't wait to meet him, either!

Jen said...

I'm so jealous of all your cool ultrasound pics. He looks beautiful!

How wonderful Pam and exciting to see your baby son. I always love to see the ultrasound pictures and that brought tears to my eyes. My daughter (my youngest child) will be 40 this year and there were no ultrasound pictures then. I somehow feel deprived. Thanks for sharing and letting us see baby Danny.

OMG, amazing. Even 5 years ago the ultrasounds were the scratchy looking ones. Almost makes you want to have another baby just so you can have a look before due date. Actually, no it doesn't but you know what I mean.

Pam said...

Mountainear: Yes, me too. isn't technology just bonkers?

Clippy: We're so spoiled these days!

Emily: Katy will have 3 boys at her disposal! I'm sure she can keep them all in line though. Her & Jack had so much fun tonight.

Thank you Jen!

Hi Anne: I'll be 40 this year too. Will you get to celebrate it with your daughter?

Hey Lee: Hope you like the film I sent you - it's a corker.

Hiya ExpatMum: The exploits of your kids make me laugh out loud & I can't wait till my boys have as much character. Two boys!!! Am I nuts?

Pam, I didn't know that you had met Kirk Douglas? ;-) x

Mommy Daisy said...

Aww, so sweet. I loved having a 3D ultrasound. It was amazing how much you get to see what they look like in the face.

Pam said...

Hey Billy, I like to keep my first marriage a bit quiet ;-)

MD: It made it so much more enjoyable. Now I'm excited to meet him, as well as fed-up with being preggers!

Hello Ladybird! I visited your blog and will read more soon. I loved the post you did about being a big fat poo. Cheered me up no end. XXX
