I went for my ultrasound last week! The technician scared the living everything out of me! My 11 week ultrasound was quick, I guess because the baby was small and easy to measure, but this one took quite a bit longer. I waited, and waited, for her to call in Montana and my mom to see baby Nemo, but she had this look on her face like that wasn't going to happen. I started to get a dreadful feeling in my stomach like something was wrong, and panicked a bit, albeit silently. After five minutes of letting my imagination get the best of me, the technician said, "I need you to go to the washroom and come back." That's all she said. In my mind, this meant she wanted me to relieve myself so she could give me the bad news. It was the scariest two minutes of my life! When I came out of the washroom, she told me to lay down again. I was pretty confused, and asked her if she sent me to the washroom just to empty my bladder, and she said yes, it was full and getting in the way! I could have hit her I was so frustrated that she scared me like that, and I could have hugged her for telling me everything was fine!
After that mini heart attack, everything was great. Montana and mom came in, and we saw Nemo moving all around! The technician guessed s/he weighs about 1 lb 2 oz, and the heart rate was 146 bpm.
Baby has been moving around a lot, and it is getting so much easier to feel on the outside. Mom finally felt a kick a few nights ago.
I have a doctor's appointment this week to go over the ultrasound results.
