ok so i've been trying all morning to figure out how to put the video of our ultrasound online so that everyone could see it but it is in a standard dvd player format and I can't figure out what format that is exactly or how to change it so that I can put it online :( So you will just have to image you watched it unless someone who knows more than me can walk me through it. *Sigh* I'm sure if I had premier it could do it in a snap for me. Adobe solves all my problems.
Now for the story on the ultrasound. My appointment was at 7:30am so that Danny could come with me before he headed off to work (my doctor and the hospital is conveniently across the street). So we got up ate breakfast, including chocolate milk in hopes to wake up the baby btw it didn't work, and got in the cars ready to go at about 7:00am. That's when Danny drew my attention to my gas gauge. We were totally empty! The plan was to fill up that weekend but the taillight had also burned out so we drove the truck everywhere until we got a chance to fix it Sunday night. We quickly stopped and filled up with gas and waited through extra traffic for no apparent reason and got to the appointment about 14 min. late. I really hate being late, but at least we made the 15 min. cut off.
We waited for a little bit longer than went back for the ultrasound. My doctor's office has a ultrasound lady (I'm not really sure what their called) come in twice a week so she was really good at it, her computer short-cut skills were amazing! Anyways, our little boy was curled up in a ball with his hands in his face the whole time. It looked like he was praying/ sucking his fingers. Actually, for a while the doctor actually thought he was sucking on his fingers but he either stopped or was just really close because once we look at a different angle he stopped.
She look at everything his hands, feet, head, heart, spine, ect. and said that everything looked great. He even allowed us a peek at his sex, how kind of him. Now we just need to come up with a boy name because I don't think we can name him Jocelyn and that's the only name we've agreed on so far.
On a side note, I discovered why I haven't felt him move as much as I think I would have by now. The placenta is placed anterior meaning it is between the baby and my belly. This doesn't mean much just that in order to feel him kick he has to kick hard enough that I feel it through the placenta. I'm not crazy or insanely out of touch with my body :)
Also, he is currently sitting breech with doesn't mean much because I'm sure he'll change positions a lot before we come to delivery day. Plus, I honestly don't blame him. I wouldn't want to hang out upside down for 9 months, as long as he figures it out before he decides to be born he can do whatever he wants right now.
Looking out the window. In fact if the blinds have not been opened for the day she will come let me know.
Playing with toys that squeak. Yes, Crys that is the pig you sent us.
Oddly enough, licking us.
