VJ's first home movie: Heartbeats and Ultrasound

Executive Producer: ST Carolan, aka "Daddy"
To view movie, please click on the arrow at the center OR at the bottom left corner of this image.

In this scene, VJ plays the role of an unborn fetus in which he displays his long legs and relaxed demeanor. VJ seems to be hanging cool with his head propped up and his feet kicked back on the wall of Mom's uterus, while showing off his strong heart beat to the audience.

Just kidding. This is VJ's second trimester anatomy screening on June 6, 2008. He really wasn't on a movie set in Hollywood - but down the road a few blocks at the UCLA Medical Center's Obstetrics Department. You can see toward the end of the film, that mom's belly was shaken by the ultrasound technician with the goal of getting VJ to move around. You'll see him kick his leg around and raise his hand just as the video ends.

Please be sure to turn your volume up as high as possible to get the full effect of his very strong heart beat. Enjoy the show~!

Mom's note: Once again, our little guy amazed us with "perfect scores." According to our doctors, he is developing very nicely, showing good growth, no visible problems, and plenty of amniotic fluid to hang out in. Apparently he likes to suck his thumb, as he often has his thumb in the mouth when we ultrasound him. The ultrasound techinician said that he is very very active in the womb.
