Hi everyone 
Had my nuchal scan yesterday afternoon, OMG was amazing!
I had bloods and urine sample taken first then laid down on the couch and had scan, as soon as she started we saw LO, it was really moving around and could see everything so clearly, hands, feet, spine, stomach, etc, then all of a sudden baby did a somersault and had obviosuly decided it had had enough of being prodded around and being looked at and turned its back to us!
anyway she was really really prodding my stomach with the thing they use to try and get the baby to turn back over as she needed to measure the nose, anyway tried this for about 10 mins as well as me jumping up and down 10 times and baby still wouldnt move, its obviosuly going to be a stubborn one like its daddy! 
She decided to monitor my heart which is another test they do at the nuchal to check for pre-eclampsia (sp) and then try again, still wouldnt turn over so had to go away for half hour and eat something sweet and come back, went back maganed to get a fleeting glimpse, long enough for her to measure nose and that was it, turned round again! anyway got a couple of pics but nothing great but just glad all was ok.
I still cant beleive im going to have a baby, will it ever sink in?
me and OH were chuffed and could have sat there all day watching our little miracle
