Another Ultrasound Picture - It's Still a Boy!


Last Friday, I had another ultrasound and got to see another picture of our little baby boy. He's not much of a kicker, more of a squirmer. During the ultrasound, when the ultrasound tech was poking and prodding my belly to get him to move on the screen, he just squirmed around and didn't really kick in response. He looks much bigger than the last time and they have indeed confirmed once again that it is still a boy.

I went to visit Nicki and Luis' baby who was born a week ago last Thursday and she looked so big! It's was hard to imagine that just a week prior to me seeing her, she was still in her mother's womb. I'm guessing that's where my fear of pain is stemming from. I'm not scared per se, but I am feeling a little aprehensive. There seems to be so much to do before this little one comes!

I've also been making the mistake of watching the TLC channel's Babies - Special Delivery. This show focuses on babies with high risk pregnancy mothers. I really don't think that I should be watching this show anymore, but it's like seeing a traffic accident. You're not sure you want to see what they're going to show you but you can't take your eyes away.

Stay away from the Discovery and TLC baby shows! There's no need for all that extra worry; you'll be fine!

As for the pain, just remember these words. "GIVE ME MY EPIDURAL NOW!!!"

That 3D imaging is incredible.

That's my plan. Epidural ASAP!

Amazingly, that's what I look like when I wake up in the morning...

He's got a good tan too.

Hi baby nephew...

i dont' think you should be watching TLC either.. i watch the baby story every now and again, and i get freaked out....

easy on the drugs.. so your research, make sure it doesn't give any complications to the baby...

Not to worry - an epidural works wonders. Proof - my friend gave birth to her son whom weighed in at 10 pounds, 12 ounces last Saturday.
