i swear, this kid is definitely mine. (not that i was questioning whose child it was...just making a point...oh forget it)
so again with the spotting. if you are a man, just skip this entry...if you can't handle the drama.
yesterday, i was about to take a walk with my parents-took a quick bathroom trip and realized i had spotted again. major melt down commenced immediately. called every doctor in town. finally one of the midwives called me back to let me know she would call and order an ultrasound to be scheduled by the office sometime this week.
week..i thought...week...not good.
so at 10:30 at night it happened again. needless to say, there was not a chance for sleep last night. so at 8 exactly i was calling and when they finally called me back they said i had a half an hour to be at bethesda north.
bethesda north is approximately 15 minutes from my house. and i drive like an andretti. only it seemed that miss daisy was being driven in every lane.
then i waited, fortunately my mom could meet me out there...not sure i could have done that by myself. (THANKS MOM!!!) then we waited for what felt like forever.
and i saw this bouncing, kicking, big headed, heart beating baby on the screen.
and for the first time, i heard its heartbeat. unbelievable. there is something so soothing about that picture...that flutter...and now that sound.
and for the first time since 2:30 yesterday - i could breathe.
(greg moved the computer equipment...so i am not sure how to scan on our printer...picture to come later of baby big head...)
