Ah, The Joys of Pregnancy

There’s nothing like a late night snack and trip to BJs for some ice cream and cookies!  Yesterday was a late night run to get chili cheese fries, and tonight we got a Pazooki.  I say we get some chicken and waffles tomorrow night!

26 weeks, 4 days Ultrasound

Okay, so we were finally reminded of what week of pregnancy we’re in (yes, we lost track).  Today was 26 weeks, 4 days (approximately).  The ultrasound went as planned.  Tiger is 1 lb, 15 oz and made it out of the Breach position and into the Vertex position.  Tiger didn’t cooperate enough for us to get a picture of Tiger’s face, but we’re taking it as it to mean that Tiger still wants us to be surprised.  This time the ultrasound lady was however,  able to verify the upper extremities.

As for the glucose test… ‘someone’ couldn’t get the bottle opened at home when they were suppose to drink it an hour before the blood test, so ‘someone’ had to bring the drink to the doctor’s office so I could open it.  We didn’t get delayed too much because the ultrasound and consultation with the doctor took about an hour, so ‘someone’ lucked out.  I really hate to name names, so I’m glad I didn’t have to.  We should find out the results by next week, but I think we’re good…contrary to the pictures on Facebook showing how much we really eat on a given weekend.

NOW, the next thing on our list is to get a car, find a pediatrician, and get ready for our childbirthing class next Friday.  All-in-all, today was a great way to start off the weekend!

6-month Ultrasound

We’re getting our 6-month ultrasound tomorrow!  We actually got an ultrasound last month, but the ultrasound lady couldn’t see Tiger’s hands and feet because he/she/Tiger was moving so much.  So this time around, we’re hoping to get some good video of Tiger (even though I think Tiger’s gonna be moving more because of the glucose drink).

Here’s a shot of Pia’s stomach from June.  I’ll take another one tonight so I can compare.
