James and I went this morning for our 18 week Ultrasound. My mom came with us. She wanted to be the first to see. The tech was good. She was very knowledgeable and explained everything that she was looking for. She said everything looked normal. I still got a little teary when I heard the heart beating and saw the face. He is very handsome already (which I have been worried about :) ). As I laid there watching the tech do her thing, I started to feel a little nauseous. Pretty soon, I started to sweat and thought I was going to throw up! My mom got out her check book out and started to fan me and James had to go get me some cold water. It was quite a sight to see. LOL!! The tech told me to roll onto my side just in time too. I was about to hurl or pass out! Apparently, when I lay on my back for even 10 minutes, the baby cuts off my circulation. After a few minutes, I regained my blood and felt good again. I'm sure the tech was laughing after we left. :)
LOL.... that's not the most fun way to have an ultrasound, but I'm so glad that you get one! It was sooooo much fun catching up in AZ. Sure miss you guys. Love you lots and pray for you!! Keep up your posts (and I'll maybe even take my own advice!). =)
