3D ultrasound in detail

Well, let's see. I got to the docs at 3:05pm for my 3:15pm appointment, which I had to have a FULL bladder for. Normally they take me in right away. So we are sitting there and waiting for what feels like forever because of course I have to pee like CRAZY! So finally an hour passed and they still haven't taken me in. I went to the desk and what was going on because I couldn't hold my pee anymore. They told me I could go pee. Of course they take me immediately after I go pee. So she starts with the normal ultrasound. She's measuring everything and telling us what everything is and different parts of the brain. The baby didn't want us to know what it was at first because she had her legs crossed for quite a while.... what a lady. Finally she stretched out and the nurse told us she was a girl. We were excited, although it wouldn't of mattered either way. Then we went and got my mom, mother in law and my sister so the nurse could do the 3D ultrasound. It was completely amazing! Her profile looks like Eric's, it was crazy! She is moving around SO much but I can't feel her yet, partly because the placenta is on top which is just another layer for the feeling to go through. She was moving around so much that part of the video is blurry because the ultrasound machine couldn't keep us with her. So, it was an amazing experience! We go back in four weeks, like normal. I promise to get some pics up soon!

3D Ultrasound!

Well everyone who hasn't already gotten a call from my mother, we are having a little girl. We are very excited. The 3D ultrasound was amazing! Sorry but I have to go to work now so I will post again later.

20 WEEKS!!!

Well, we are at the halfway point! I can't believe it's half over already. It has gone by sooo fast and I have LOVED every minute of it. I have had a wonderful experience, so far, with being pregnant! I lucked out and had not one ounce of morning sickness, I feel energized and healthy. I know the hardest is yet to come but I am so excited to have a wonderful little miracle growing inside me!

I think I can feel the baby move every once in a while but nothing that anyone else would be able to feel. I want Eric and my family and me to be able to see the baby kick. I know it will come soon but I'm just wondering when!

We go on Thursday the 28Th to meet out little miracle face to face with a 3D ultrasound. We can't wait. We also get to find out of we are having Cody or Emma. We will be happy about either so it doesn't really matter.

Eric is halfway done with the nursery, painting it that is. He's been working nights so it's hard to get it done. I think he might finish it on Sunday because he only works a half a day. I told him I could help paint and he told me it was his job to paint the nursery. So I just let him go. We have to go pick up the crib from Mike and Mary once he's done painting. The color of the nursery is soft jade and white. All the walls are soft jade and the trim and ceiling are white.

Work news, I have applied for a new position with-in Unity House. It is at our TAS department. It's a lot of the things I am already doing but I would work 9-5 Monday thru Friday, NO WEEKENDS, and I would still get a beeper but it's just for consumers and they only use it it emergency cases. The people I have talked to say they only get 1-2 calls a weeks normally. Mu interview will be for sometime next week. I can't wait. I really hope I get this. It's time for a little change. If I don't get it, I will be staying where I currently am. Which isn't a bad thing it would just be nice to have all my weekends back, with a new baby and all.

Anyways, I guess I have blabbed on enough for now. Sorry I am at work and there is nothing to do.

18 Weeks

Well. We were 18 weeks on Saturday. I went tot he doctors Friday and they said everything is fine. The baby's heartbeat is still a strong 160. They said I should start feeling the baby move soon. I can't wait. Everyone keeps asking me if I felt the baby yet and I have to keep telling them no. I cna't wait till I can say, Yup, wanna feel. Eric is soo excited. We have decided on both a girls and a boys names already....... Girl: Emma Rose Boy: Cody James Eric came out of the blue one day with Cody James. We always liked Emma Rose. We go for our 3D ultrasound on hte 28th I can't wait. Mom is coming with us so she's all excited. I guess that's it for not. Not too much to tell, I feel wonderful.


Until Next time,

17 Weeks and a scare last week.

Hello all. Well, we are 17 weeks today. It's going by so fast. I am still feeling really good. On Tuesday we had to go to the doctors because one of the consumers at work decided it would be fun to push me, very hard, in the stomach. Of course, I freaked. We went to the docs and they checked me all out and said everything looks just fine. They said our baby is very well protected right now. The doc said it would be the same as if I had a 2-3 year old at home and they pushed at my stomach. They were very happy that I didn't fall. Apparently if I fell things could've been different. Of course Eric didn't want me to go back to work, ever. I explained to him we had no choice. But I am feeling great, like I said earlier. I am currently at work. Everyone is sleeping. I'm just counting the minutes until 4pm. Then I am going to our bowling picnic. Anyways, I guess that's it for now. Just wanted to update everyone.
