I went to the doc yesterday to have an ultrasound and for my 36 week checkup. I was SOOO uncomfortable during the ultrasound. First, like always, I had to drink water so that they can measure and see the uterus more clearly before the appointment, which was fine and good, but usually the ultrasound tech lets me go pee right after she measures it. Nope she didn't let me go pee this time. That was the first thing that made me uncomfortable. Then she has me lying almost completely flat of my back, and maybe I didn't notice it before, for my other ultrasounds, because my belly wasn't nearly this big, but let me tell you, before long I was getting all hot and sweaty and my back was starting to hurt bad. I must say this ultrasound tech wasn't nearly as friendly as the others that I have had because she just kept the little screen to herself and measured away! She finally asked me if I was alright and let me turn to the side, and said that the baby was in an awkward position, (THE HEAD IS DOWN, YAAY!), for her to get any good pictures. By this point, I was done, I didn't care to see any pictures, I wanted off that damn table and needed to pee! I just told her that it was okay. I didn't need any pictures. So, now I am a little sad that I don't have any cool new pictures of the baby, but oh well, he/she will be here soon enough.
I also found out that the baby is already 6 lbs! It's heart rate is a healthy 146 bpm. Not much longer now! Bag is packed and we're ready!
Baby's Head is Down!
