Cute Darby!!

A 4D ultrasound is where you can see the baby moving in 3D. Regular ultrasounds are a little hard to tell what part is what, but the 3D pic will look like a real live baby without the color. I will post it if we get a good one so you guys can see.

Valky- We have two girl names right now, so we will pick one or go with something totally different. We had a solid boy name, so that is why the baby is a girl, LOL!

Our two names that we like are Brooklyn and Baylor...

Hi Gillian and Congrats!!

Does your Dr's office give you a 4 D free or charge, just curious as mine charges. I'm sure they're expensive, but they'd take them anyways, you can set up to have a whole portfolio done?? I think if it were me, 1 would be fine!

My doc's office charges the regular ultrasound rate because most is in the regular 2D, then they switch to get good face pictures. At 20 weeks we know that my new DD looks like my son! Yesterday I wasn't charged at all because they asked my to come in just so they could play with their brand new U/S machine and needed a willing belly. The whole thing lasted over an hour and both doctors at the practice were with me switching back and forth playing with the new machine. I loved being able to see an hour in the life of my baby in there, LOL!
 
That is so cool! Modern technology is amazing!
 
Five months!!My doctor won't even attempt to find out the sex of the baby until I am about 5 months pregnant.
Today I am four months pregnant!! So by next month I should know what I am having. I can't wait to start buying pink!! I hope it's a girl. I have seen so many cute outfits at the store!!
If it's a boy, well I will still enjoy shopping in blue, but the boys department in no way compares to the girl's department.

I am hoping to go with Lydia. I have always loved that name. I always look in the bible and read story after story until something really sticks. With my daughter Naomi I was reading the book of Ruth and fell in love with that name.
Now the name Lydia after reading the book of Acts has really jumped out at me and the fact that she is a godly woman who followed Christ, had her whole household saved, and was a servant of the Lord really appeals to me. I pray the same for my children.

Debbie :D

Yes, she was sucking her thumb and waving in the other pic. We were with the docs for over an hour but those are the best pics because she kept covering her face with her hands.

No paparazzi!! Noooooo!
