Baby number 3 is a…
GIRL!
I truly am not surprised, but surprised at the same time, if that makes any sense at all. We have always joked that we would have 10 girls before we would ever have a boy! (Don't worry we are not going to test this method, we are DONE!)
But, since this is our last baby, we wanted to do ALL the things. I had heard of an ultrasound studio in Louisville called Baby Blessing Ultrasound, that does 2D, 3D, 4D and 5D/HD Live Ultrasounds. I knew without a doubt I had to try it out! We were so eager to know if we were gaining another little princess or our first baby boy. I set up an appointment for right at 17 weeks and off we went!
The Baby Blessing Ultrasound Studio itself is absolutely gorgeous. You walk in and everything is so bright and open, with a couch and baby photos covering the wall! (See photos below!) We were greeted immediately by the owner, Deanna; who had me fill out some paperwork, while we waited on my husband to arrive.
Once my husband arrived we were taken back into the ultrasound room. The room itself was large, which a huge couch and additional chair for seating. The TV where the ultrasound was displayed was HUGE! I loved that everyone could see everything and there was not any confusion on what we were looking at. Deanna began explaining what we were looking at throughout the ultrasound. She explained the baby was butt down, where the arms were and then the "potty shots!" Our girl was not shy and we could easily tell that she was, in fact, a female! I love that Deanna did not immediately shout out "IT'S A GIRL!" but said that she was going to look at things from a few different angles first, and explained how parts look on the ultrasound. It was such a cool experience to get to see everything with my family. She took her time throughout the ultrasound and I never once felt like she was rushing through it- like they often do at the doctor's office.
There are a few things that made Baby Blessing Ultrasound stand apart, in my opinion:
They are owner operated and Deanna is a Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer with 10 years of experience. She is such a kind and patient person, especially with my crazy kids in the room!
She allows you to return at NO CHARGE within one week if baby is being camera shy. This is great, especially when you are trying to find out gender!
Deanna said a blessing over our baby while doing the ultrasound. This was such a special experience and I love that she gave the option of this before the ultrasound started.
They have an option that allows her to record the baby's heartbeat and she can then place it inside a stuffed animal.
Lastly, she provides a DVD video of your session. Again, this is our last child so this is something I will always cherish!
I was so happy with our experience at Baby Blessing Ultrasound! If you are in the Louisville area, I highly recommend checking them out!
