So first of all:: The due dates and how far along may be a little wacky right now and I blame that on my weirdo doctor. Today he said I am 8wks and 2days. Due October 12th. and I said ok....got it. whateverrrrrr
So where do I want to start. So last night...crazy dreams all night long. Last night I headed to bed about as sick as they come. Headaches that wont give up...just feeling overall SHITTY. I dream about being in Iraq driving through water up to the top of vehicles and what not. A few dreams about babies here and there and then finally my alarm goes off and I couldnt be any happier :) Happy Birthday NANI! and......my appointment is this morning...yippie. So I actually lay in bed and talk to Andrew for a few then get up and go to PT. Windchill this morning made it feel about 20 so PT was at the gym today i was thankful for this so I could dip out early. I ran home, got ready and went to pick up Lindsay. Of course Lindsay like her usual self was documenting each step play by play...and inside my stomach was just turning...So we show up I get called in and I have the most senial weird old lady who actually gets the nerve to ask me "are you even pregnant"...UM...yes bitch. why the fuck do you think I am here!!! no. I did not say this but I wanted to. Then she made a comment about how we did not see the heartbeat at 4 weeks. And my heart stopped...Um ok so I dont even work here and I know that you wont see the baby at 4 weeks. Next nurse PLEASE! so she weighs me...I have gained no weight. yay for this...go into the room ...take the draws off and linds begins the photo op again. Yay linds take a pic of me with a piece of paper covering the goods! Doctor comes in and of course...does not remember me...congrats! yay thanks doc but you and I met like 4 weeks ago...yup remember me? I bet the job becomes so montanous..( spelling?) that if you have seen one vagina you have seen them all right?...poor guy.
Anyways he tells me to lay back, spread em...and I mean..he doesnt play. takes the cold ass probe and boom...before I know it Im looking at this little bean on the screen..." now theres the head...theres the umbillcal cord....." I'm getting the little tour around my uterus but Im not paying any attention all I see is this HUGE bean that I was expecting to be a little speck. Yay this thing is way bigger then I ever imagined. So finally I clue back in on what is happening and hear him mention the heartbeat...so he zooms in on it...and for like 5 seconds I caught myself mouth breathing and in a full on smile. I guess its one of those re-defying moments where you are like...Wow. I made that? He said heartbeat was good..and that was good enough for me. He said that everything looked great...moved it around a bit more for my own viewing pleasure and printed out 7 pics and called it good. Took some blood, made me want to pass out and next thing I know...the past 4 weeks that I have waited rushed away were over...and now..I wait for another 4 hahahaha!
In the photo the head is on the left...the cord you can kinda see is on the right going up. I think its the cutest bean I have ever seen! haha. so that was my day. I am really gassy in case you were wondering. umm cramping here and there. and my next appt is March 30th. We will hear the heartbeat everytime but will not do an ultrasound. he said around 18 weeks he will start the screening for the anatomy and to find out the sex of the baby :)))))))) even though I know its gonna be a little girl. I can feel it.
alright that is all folks. enjoy.
