4D Snowy.

Its my birthday next week and Tricky decided to take me on a day trip to Windsor this weekend.

We've been to Windsor before but I was too stupid to realise that this was just a ploy by Tricky to get me to a London suburb called Ashford on the way back home. What's at Ashford you wonder? Well, there is a 4D ultrasound clinic at Ashford I reply. What is 4D ultrasound you ask? Why, I reply, its like a regular ultrasound only in 3 dimensions plus time, which is the fourth dimension. Yep, we saw our little Snowy in glorious monotone poo-brown 4D! How amazing is that? It would be easy to carry on about the technical marvel that this type of ultrasound is, but I was completely overwhelmed by the emotions of seeing our child breathing, sucking, swallowing, opening and closing eyes, flailing arms and legs, still inside Tricky, still to stay 10 weeks inside Tricky. It was the most emotional experience I've had during this pregnancy since I saw the first little flicker of light that was Snowy's heartbeat at 6 weeks. Its sometimes hard for me, the non-pregnant human in this relationship, to relate to our little baby but this left me with a big lump in my throat. I just want to point and say to friends and strangers that I made this with Tricky! It is difficult to put these emotions into words so I will just post these few pics. I think you'll agree that Snowy is a very cute little baby.
