I had my 38 week appointment yesterday and i'm still on bedrest even though my blood pressure was back to normal and my urine was clean. I guess they don't want it shooting back up but this is so boring. I had an ultrasound when I got there and it was so great, much better than the 18 week one. I could actually make body parts out and he looked really cute. The tech pointed out his hair! I wish she'd given me a picture of his foot, it was so clear and we could see all 5 toes. She also confirmed he's definitely a boy, even I saw that! Then I had a non-stress test which was annoying because the monitor thing wouldn't stay picking up his heartbeat so I had to hold it in place and it was killing my hand because of my carpal tunnel and on top of that he wouldn't move. Oh, and the room they had me in was wicked hot and when I got up the paper on the table was damp and my pants were soaked down the back. I was embarrassed to walk out! So next week I go back for another non-stress test and hopefully he'll be here anytime because I am so done.
Here are the u/s pics she did give us... They're laid out poorly but that's because of the way nick scanned them all on one page instead of each seperately... The row on the left is his profile with his hands in front of his face, see his nose? I think that one is so cute... The next one down are his "boy parts"... The third one is another profile. The second row are both of his face from the front. Creepy but cute! I am officially in love!
