This Morning

Let me start out this morning by saying thank you for all of the prayers and kind words! I feel much better today, and have a more realistic handle on life as I know it. I am slowly working on laundry this morning, and will be content with what I get done. I did not score as much as I would have liked to yesterday, but it is a new day. After I finish this post, I am going to score until I have to leave for lunch duty at the boys' school.

Now for the fun if my morning! I had my OB appointment this morning. I drank the yucky sugar stuff (they gave me lemon lime instead of orange-think flat 7up), and gave blood after seeing the doctor. If I hear nothing tomorrow, it was normal and he will do a repeat at my appointment in mid-June. If it isn't, I will hear tomorrow, and will have to go for the 3 hour screen. Prayers for normal are always appreciated.

I had a good visit with my OB. When he tried to get the heart beat, he couldn't (he could pick up her moving, but not the heartbeat). I told him that I had been feeling her down by my bladder lately (joy, oh joy!). He moved the Doppler with no luck. He decided to do an ultrasound instead. So, I got to see my beautiful little girl and her heartbeat (because he picked up her moving I wasn't worried). The funny thing was her position-She was standing up! Her head was much above my belly button and her feet were indeed resting on my bladder. My OB was hilarious! He exclaimed, "Her head isn't supposed to be up that high yet!" He also took a peek at her privates, and indeed, no sign of a boy (so, in case you are counting, that is 4 professionals who have said we are having a girl!). He also confirmed what I have felt all along-that this is going to most likely be another big baby like Drew was (hopefully without an arm stuck this time!). I am glad the appointment was this morning because it has put me in a great mood! Have a great day everyone!
