We attended our long awaited 4D scan this weekend. All I can say is that it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Seeing your own baby “in the flesh” so to speak is just truly magnificent.
We took my Dad and my sister along to the scan with us. We had invited them along as we thought it would be something really special to share with them. Their reactions were just priceless. 
The scan started with all of us looking anywhere but at the screen. This is because we want to remain “Team Green’ and couldn’t risk anyone seeing any “bits” on the scan when she put the probe on. Luckily she went straight to the head so we were safe anyway.
Flump was a little bit naughty throughout the scan. He kept putting his hands up to his face as if he was hiding away. At one point I had to press on my belly to keep his hands out of the way. That felt odd for me because it was the first time I’d interacted with him and been able to see what affect I was having.
The pictures we have are amazing, as is the DVD. It’s a good 20 minutes long and shows Flump moving his hands up to his face, putting his foot into his mouth and smiling and frowning, among many other things.
I really can’t put into words just how amazing it was, which is why I’m going to keep this blog short and add the pictures and DVD to it for you to see for yourself.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I’d love another but I think we will leave Flump in peace now for the next 12 weeks before his entrance to the world begins.
Here is the video. It’s had to be broken down into 3 parts as YouTube only allow 10 minutes at a time.
