Sonogram time!
Monday Donovan and I went to the doctors and got to see our baby! When the sonogram started...it was all well and good...tummy, bladder, heart moving, round head...but when her face came on the screen, I let out a little yelp. There she is. Eyes, nose, lips....everything! It was so weird to see her as a really real person. Then the technician switched to the 3D/4D view (what is the 4th 'D'?) and all of sudden she was even more real! I had seen other peoples sonogram pictures and read the comments about how the baby looks like so and so more than the other..and I never really understood. But now I do. Donovan and I both agree (along with others) that she really does look more like me. And her cheeks! They looked SO chubby and cute! I hope she really does have cheeks like me...they're so cute!
So while that is all well and good, the kicking and moving that I used to stare at my stomach in awe at..is now straight up painful! I like when she's resting or napping now because that means I'm not in pain! She was facing the downward position, looking towards my back and in really good "coming out" position! :) Hopefully she comes a little early, so we can make it to Florida for Thanksgiving.
To add a little stress to my not stressed enough life (sarcasm people) Donovan has now yet another class he needs to attend in Atlanta..which the convinient choice dates of Nov 10-13th (in theory arriving home the day before my due date, nothing could go wrong with that plan, right?) or Nov 17th - 20th, leaving right after I have the baby leaving a very hormonal, emotional lady behind with a three day old baby......Alone! Does anyone see a flaw in this plan?!?! But, he being the sole bread winner now in the family, he has to go..so any suggestions..anyone? anyone?
