The baby didn't move around too much while we were getting the actual sonogram, but proceeded to nudge and push me for the rest of the day very actively. Aargh! Anyway the sonogram tech was having a bit of trouble getting the images she needed at first because of the position the baby was in - head down, turned towards my back (showing us its butt). haha. Finally she got it to move so she could get some profile shots. This is the first time seeing the baby's profile and it was surreal and beautiful!
Baby Gender: 90% sure girl
Baby heartrate: 155bpm
Baby Weight: 11 oz
Baby Length: Somewhere around 10 inches from toe to head, about the length of a banana (from babycenter.com)
Baby snuggled against placenta. This was actually bad for the the technician. lol

We also took a little video footage which was soooo not allowed but so worth it to me. This is a precious memory and I wanted to have what I could of it. It is about 4ish minutes long. I tried to label it so you can see what is going on - there is a section where they are checking for the gender, and a section measuring the face and profile. There are parts where you get to see the whole baby's body, spine and feet and legs too. Cool stuff!!!
We love you baby girl Lusky!!! It's amazing how precious you are to me in such a short time.

COOL! Thanks so much for sharing! What a beautiful little baby!
At 20 weeks, BOTH our boys had very "obvious" boy parts, so I'm thinkin' if didn't see any boy business and you were getting a good look between the legs... yeah!
I mean, both Ian & Aaron there was NO mistaking what we were seeing down there!
Congratulations!
The next 20 (or so) weeks are going to fly by!
Hopefully your doctors 90% sure girl is more accurate than my doctors 90% :) I'm sure it is though!!!

Did someone tell you you weren't allowed to take video of the sono? We recorded a large chunk of when we found out he's a boy and the sonographer didn't have nay problems with it. Glad you shared! Technology is so cool!
