I had an ultrasound and OB appointment yesterday. I was nervous going into it, because I was having more pain on my left side, which made me wonder if it burst or if it was growing?!? My doctor said she thinks it burst because it's A LOT smaller than before! Such great news :) I also got the chance to peek at baby Rad again too! He/she was very active kicking and hiding from the light! The baby sat looking at my back most of the time, little stinker! I heard the heart rate of 155 and even saw the heart beating :) I was able to see the spine, eyes, nose, mouth, legs, etc!! It was really cool. I read that it's possible to find out the sex as early as 15 weeks, so I asked the technician if she could see anything. She said it was a little early to see full anatomy, but afer minutes of looking she said if she had to guess- a girl! When I told Mark he said, "I could have guessed that too- it's a 50/50 chance" :) We'll have to wait until our next appointment on May 15th to get the accurate reading! I'm excited to feel some movement soon, the doctor was listening to the heart rate and a loud noise would come on the machine and she'd ask "did you feel that, it was a kick" but I didn't feel anything. So hopefully soon :)
I'm starting to feel better, and have more energy. Mark, Nelli, and I have been enjoying our nightly walks.
Mark started his new hours already at work, even though the new building doesn't open until June. He now works 9-6 in the parts & accessories department. The only bad part is he isn't home till 7 PM :( I'm not looking forward to June when he starts working Saturdays! He does get Sunday & Monday off, but just not the same. But we'll learn to adjust. The only good part about these hours is baby gets to stay home with Daddy on Mondays :)
Hope everyone is doing well, we're feeling very blessed after such a great appointment yesterday! Here is a picture of growing baby Rad :) I can't wait for our next ultrasound, should be in 3D!
