As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

I had a private one at 26 weeks (my 4D) that's how I know. | Ahhhhh ok, that makes sense!
I've been thinking about having a 4D scan. I would love to have one done, but just can't afford it really.  |

Mellow | All the sonographers I have seen (and I've had 4 scans!) have been absolutely lovely actually! I never imagined you could measure the weight! |

Oh and my sonographers (except the private one) never spoke to me either. |

Those measurements you said are:
FL: the top of the leg (from thigh to knee)
HC: head circumference
BPD: Biperial (sp?) diamiter (something to do with the brain lol)
Sorry if you knew that already! |
