Nice list.
While the Ultrasound is pretty neat, the Doppler was by far the coolest one for me. It\'s difficult to actually see anything in the ultrasound pictures most of the time, but hearing those heart beats (we had twins) for the first time is absolutely the coolest thing ever.
On a side note, I can\'t imagine getting one of those amniocentesis or CVS tests without a very good reason. I would be so terrified that I would be in the 1 in 100 or 200. Seriously, those are way too high of odds for me. Good job mentioning that. That would be a tough decision to make on the spot if you didn\'t know about it before hand.

I still think our ultrasound was the neatest because I could spot almost everything right away. He was facing the \"camera\" with both hands by his head. We dubbed it the \"Home Alone\" pose.
