fetal echo

i had my fetal echo today at rainbow. it went well, and we got another little glimpse of the wiggle worm in my belly....
it was like a normal ultrasound but instead of being done by an OBGYN it was done by a Pediatric Cardiologist. It felt very strange going into a children's hospital to be seen myself. And instead of scanning over the whole baby, the exam focused solely on the heart and the vessels from the heart.
everything was normal, which makes me feel good.....although they always have to give a little disclaimer that things can be missed, and if there is something small, they may not see it...but at least i know there is nothing grossly abnormal about fiffy-fiffy's heart.
ive seen an echo before, and can pretty much see and understand what the cardiologist is looking at....but i give this guy a lot of credit to try to examine the heart on the moving little baby that is still inside me! most of the time, the patient is lying still on the table, or in the case of a little kid, sometimes wiggling, but can always be held still or bribed to stay still. but the baby- there was nothing i could do to get the baby to stop twisting and turning and kicking and flipping and dancing. it seemed as if every time the probe was pressed down harder, the baby kicked it and changed position....it was funny to me, probably not so much to the cardiologist!
it was also the first time i really saw a kick and felt it at the same time, synchronized and strong. ive been feeling kicks for a while, and ive seen movement on the ultrasounds, but normally it is not perfectly coordinated. but today, it was. i felt the kick as i saw the baby move its body on the screen.
i think i am baking a soccer player in here......a soccer player with a perfect heart.
