Here's a little video from the ultrasound today - you can hear the heartbeat at the beginning which is so sweet! It's hard to tell - but there are time when you can see the 4 chambers of the heart, the spine, face, eyes, nose, arms and legs...he's growing for sure and moving around so much!
I experienced the reason you aren't supposed to lay on your back - at this point in the pregnancy...because it makes you almost pass-out. Towards the end of the ultrasound I was feeling a bit queazy and hoping it would just go away, well - it got stronger and stronger so I asked if I could sit-up - all the while I break out into a full sweat and know I am on the verge of passing out. Well - with the help of Aaron, Emily, a cold glass of water, a fan, a garbage can just in case and finally laying on my left side - I was back to normal in no time! This little guy had apparently cut off the blood supply to my brain (which confirms that I have one) and almost made me pass-out! I felt perfectly fine afterwards - just a little drained:0) I guess this means i don't need to go on a walk tonight - I have done plenty of sweating for the day!
Have a great day!

Oh, no! You poor thing! :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the video! Isn't seeing the heart pump like that the most amazing thing? It's so hard to believe there is a life growing in there! God is so awesome! Congrats! You will treasure that video forever.
What a neat video! Isn't it crazy how big they get so fast and how much stronger their kicking gets as the days go by! I hope you are feeling good, besides that one episode. We're in for a long summer in the south!
