Hi All,
Dave and I went for the ultrasound, but were disappointed. :( There were 2 technicians training each other on new equipment. They seemed to be preoccupied. They said they would explain everything at the end, after they were done measuring, but didn't. It ended abruptly. Bottom line...we couldn't see anything! Dave wasn't sure what he was looking for or at and the screen was very dark at my angle. The only real body part they pointed out was a frontal shot of peanuts head. I asked if we could have a picture, which they handed us 3, all of the head, which aren't worthy of posting. So, a disappointment it was. But, on a good note, the doctor said peanut looks great, which is really what matters. The heartbeat remains strong and regular. I've been feeling consistent movement the past week. How super cool! I really wish men could share the feeling to help put things in perspective and to share in the joy.
Nothing else is going on. I think we may register, or begin to register this weekend. I have a continuing education class for my massage license, both Sat and Sun, 3 hours each day, so we'll see. And Dave's new Grand Theft Auto game is calling his name. :)
Peggy, I hope your surgery went well yesterday and that your mouth isn't too sore this morning.
Any caregiver news? Gram could try stopping fluid intake a few hours before bed, which will decrease the number of times she has to get up in the night. Just a thought...
It's nice to see Gavin enjoying daycare. I love the name little monsters. :)
Enjoy the weekend...
Love,
Melissa

Well that's a real bummer about your ultrasound! I wish you could have had an experience more like ours was. I guess there are benefits to having a baby in a state where they've turned it into an art form. I remember wishing the same thing - that Brandon could share in feeling Gavin moving around in my belly. Take heart - it won't be long before you'll be able to feel Peanut from the inside AND the outside. Great stuff!
It's good news that the doctor liked the results, and that this little baby is moving around regularly. The rest is just fluff, but I'm still sorry you were disappointed. My mouth isn't feeling too bad. Ibuprofen seems to keep it all in check. Eating is a challenge, but nothing I can't overcome ;-)
