It only had one head thank goodness.

Well, after a false go at having our sonogram, I thankfully didnt screw it up again and we made it on time to our appointment on Friday. In fact, we were pretty early. If you recall my last post, I had to come with a full bladder. Actually, I was told after the fact by the doctor that I only needed a "semi-full" bladder. By this statement you know that the sonogram doctor was a man. There is no such thing as a semi-full bladder when you are pregnant. Your tank is either just depleted or straight up bursting. Put that together with the fact that they made me wait 30 minutes after my appointment time (I'm sure this is because of the "list" I am now on that I mentioned in my last post) and you have what I like to call...uncomfortable. I was able to distract myself with an article in the Pregnancy magazine about cloth diapers. (This is now my life). So, Aaron and I were called into the sonogram room, where I wiggled around on the table for another 10 min while trying not to pee on it. The doc, whom will only be my sonogram doctor, came in chomping on a mouthful of Bubalicious gum...like more than one piece. "So (smack, smack, smack), you kids ready to see your baby? (smack, smack, smack)." I chose to ignore his gum smacking, along with his shoving a huge piece of paper towel down the crotch of my jeans. I was about to see my baby and nothing was going to keep me from that now.  The doc put his wand (what do you call those things?) on my stomach and there it was. At first it looked like a blob and then finally focused on what I could tell was a head. Then I made out the rest of the body and he/she was moving around like an weightless astronaut. I saw arms and legs and hands a feet. He/she was already making a fist (probably already shaking it at me) and then it turned its back to us and we saw the full spine. That was awesome, along with seeing the beating heart. The doctor tells us (between smacks) that the baby is perfect (takes after me) and that my blood tests indicated very low chances of Down syndrome and the other things they look for. He also informed us that the baby's nose didnt actually look pointy and deformed like it looked on the screen and that by looking at both our noses that our baby wouldnt have to worry about that either. Glad he cleared that up. I then relieved my bladder and Aaron and I walked out of there very happy. I do have to admit though...I'm just glad it didnt have two heads. That would have totally ruined my day.
