1) I had my monthly OB appt yesterday. My Mom got to come along and we brought my boys- that was nice to have them there to meet my doc and hear the
.
Everything is checking out fine. I gained like another 7-8 lbs since last month. Holy Moly, I am gonna be up 50 lbs by the time May comes around! Anyways, I am measuring right at 24 wks, he found her right away and the
was strong. He made another comment about giving the boys a sister (he believes in the heart rate thing- my DR of all people!
) and he was excited to hear about the up coming u/s that we have sched. I got my GT paperwork and the only instruction about fasting was to be sure not eat anything for 2 hrs prior to going in for the test. Maybe I was mistaken about before but I thought that I had to completely fast with my other two...
Oh well. I'll get that done in a couple of weeks....
2) Saturday cannot get here fast enough for me! I can't believe that I managed to wait 8 whole weeks for this 3D u/s without going insane...but now that it's days away I am so ansy about it! The past few days I dreamed that the tech told us she was actually a boy (but it was a regular u/s in the dream and my family wasn't there) and I told him he needed to give me pics of the goods because nobody would believe us!
The last night I dreamed that we went to the place and the lady FORGOT to record the u/s for us, then told me I needed to
ask her to record it before she started the u/s (hello- we're paying for it- why wouldn't it be recorded!?) and then kept putting me off when I was asking for my pictures! This time DH wasn't there with me (why?) so I was freaking out and screaming like a mad woman because now he wouldn't be able to see any of it and all the people were just ignoring me! Then it was 5 o'clock and the place was closing and everyone just started to trickle out of the place til it was empty and they left me in there, alone, upset about my u/s-gone-wrong!
FWIW, I have had elective u/s with both of my other pgs- and both experiences were wonderful. In my conscious mind I don't feel that we are going to have any issues with the u/s and the only thing that I am worried about is that she will turn into a he...and, while I will be accepting of either, at this point it will take some getting used to since we have been referring to the baby as HER for 2 mos! *sigh* I just wish that Sat was here already so that we can go get the u/s and I can see my baby again...and I can stop having irrational dreams about it!
