Yesterday was my Second Trimester ultrasound.. They call it the BIG ultrasound and most important because they check all the babies organs and body parts to make sure everything is growing on track.. I was of course excited to go because i got to see our little princess and see how big she has gotten, but we already knew the sex so it wasn't like we were anxious for that..
I don't know if i went in with HIGH expectations or what, but during and after the u/s i felt soo let down..Our radiologist tech was kinda an onery old hoochie i'd like to call her. haha and didn't tell us much what was going on, she would look at something and be like this is the heart, this is the diaphram , these are her kidneys, i had to keep asking her "how does everything look, is she doing everything she needs to be" and she would just answer back "yup"... well that gave me a whole lot of hope.. She did like 1 minute if that of fun stuff, ( things we knew we were looking at) everything else was checking on B. of course i want her to make sure my baby girl is perfect but i wanted to see my angel too.. She said B had her legs crossed and she couldn't verify it was a girl but she was pretty sure she is a girl.. Well Uhhhh can we jiggle my tummy and make her move and keep trying cause i kinda want to get that 100% guarntee again.. ( even though i know its a girl, it would just be nice to hear it from another dr) but the tech really didn't care what we wanted and just said sorry i can't see anything more... She said she was done and she was sending in a dr to look at a couple things and go over what she saw.. Let me remind you , the clinic i'm at is ALL high risk drs.. They are the Smartest or smartest for this stuff so i was a little nervous.. The dr came in and said that the tech couldn't verify/see the 4 chambers of the babies heart due to the way B was laying.. So she tried to see if she could get a better look but baby wasn't moving.. i asked her to see if she could tell what the baby was but she said if the tech couldn't tell she couldnt.. sighhhh shot down again.. Then some other nurse lady came in and said in the u/s they could see i had a LoNg cervix which isn't WaY common, and they have been doing a study on this and have been looking for someone for over a year.. They said people with short cervix have a HIGH chance or miscarriages and premature labor. and that's all they said.. so i went into a little panic attack thinking "well what the heck does a long cervix mean" well i guess its a great thing to have it and they wanted to do a transvaginal u/s to measure exactly how long i was and get blood work.. this is not what i came in for so i got all emotional and didn't know what to think.. i had a nervous break down after they missed my vein the first time and just started bawling in bradon's arms at the lab.. I had enough and just wanted to go home.. So all in all the visit sucked!! they didn't tell me much of anything and i have to come back in 4 weeks to look at the heart again.. Hopefully they can verify the gender.. They said everything looks great and they just want to make sure the 4 chambers of the heart are doing what there suppose to be doing.. So brynlee please please please move your little body and show the dr's what they need to see so mommy doesn't need to be poked anymore and know everything is okay!!
on a happier note, she kicks like crazy and i can feel her moving all the time now.. she kicks right in my gut and it feels CRAZY...
I love her so much and honestly i give pregnant women 100% respect on what they go/went through.. it is the biggest emotional roller coaster not knowing what the heck dr's are talking about and just hoping that your sweet baby is doing ok ..
