So I have to admit that I had a freak out moment yesterday and today. I am sure I am not the only "first timer" to freak out, but I kind of felt a little stupid. HAHA. I kept feeling these weird cramps Wednesday. It didn't hurt but just didn't feel right. So I called the dr. and they called me back and told me to take some Tylenol, put my feet up, and take a hot bath. Of course I was at work so the warm bath was not an option, but I did take some Tylenol and put my feet up and pray that my principal didn't come in and see me kicked back HAHA. Well the weird sensation continued so I called back and of course by the time they called me back yesterday afternoon I was ok. Well this morning I woke up and I kept getting these weird twinges of pain on my right and left side of my lower abdomen. So I called and they wanted to get me ASAP incase he wanted to do a sono. So I got my class taken care of and rushed to the doctor's office (got all the way there with my gas light on). The nurse called me back and grabbed the doppler and I proceeded to tell her that this was not for my regular visit but that I thought I was having a slight freak out. So she sweetly reassured that everything was ok and quickly got the doppler on there to reassure me even more. She turned that sucker up loud and let me just lay there and listen to our little one's heartbeat. (Side note: I could listen to that sound all day). She said everything sounded wonderful but that the doctor would be in just to feel my stomach and measure. So he came in and did his thing and said everything was great..... it was all just growing pains. WOAH, I am so relieved.
We got back in 5 weeks for our sono and check up. This will make me almost 19 weeks. This sono would normally be the one where people find out the sex of their baby, but for us it will just be us getting to see our little one again. It sure is going to be hard to say no when they ask us if we want to know, but it makes it that much more exciting for the big delivery day to come!
PS.... we found out that my sister in law and brother in law are giving us our first niece around October 5th!!!! We are so very excited for them, as well as, for the fact that our babies will get to grow up together!
