20 Week Update *Pictures!*

Today we had our 20 week ultrasound. I scheduled it for 715am (ugh, right?) so I wouldn't have to take as much PTO at work. I went to bed with the plan of.. don't get up in the middle of the night to pee, you need a full bladder for the u/s. I  woke up once at like 4.. oh man, it was so bad... when my bladder is super full it makes my round ligament pain like 10x worse.. (TMI? there will probably be a lot of TMI.. its my blog :) ) but i toughed it out and went back to sleep.
Woke up around 615... so sick! i knew i was going to throw up.. and am i the only pregnant person out there who's bladder and throwing up just don't jive? needless to say.. i emptied first, then threw up.
crap, I am back to square one.
I felt better after, took some zofran, ate some toast and managed to chug 2 water bottles in like 20mins.. :)

the Ultrasound went really well. My friend had hers done at Riverton too and didn't have a fabulous experience... so i was a little nervous. I am happy to report though that our Ultrasound was beyond amazing! Our tech Emily was fabulous and took seriously like a million pictures. She had a student with her and he needed some practicing scanning, so he took over for a bit.. I didn't mind at all, I got to see more of my cute little guy! She ended up printing us atleast 10ft worth of pictures. I need to cut them all up, but seriously. so many!
He looks good, heart has 4 chambers, brain looks good, kidneys and stomach are there, same with the diaphragm. He has the cutest little feet that i think look just like Scott's :) and a nose that looks like mine. Emily the tech kept saying how cute he was :) *melt* which maybe she says to everyone, but she sure made it sound sincere, and i appreciated it :)
Our little guy was squirming around like crazy.. he is totally breech, which is fine for now. We started the U/S with his head on the left side of my belly button... by the end, he was then on the right side and trying to flip over. His feet were kicking like crazy.. as much as i can't wait to truly feel those kicks, I am okay with waiting to feel this little non stop ninja :)
that brings me to my next point... so i went to work after the U/S... sitting at my desk, just working away and i keep feeling this little muscle spasm like feeling next to my belly button.. i look down and its like a little punch.. I pushed back on that spot and he punched back like 3 more times.. you could totally see it through my shirt and everything. ah, melting totally :) I haven't felt much other than that.. but i can now say "Little guy, I felt you kick today and it was amazing!"

(feet) :)

this is actually a cool picture.. but you have to use your imagination..

tilt your head to the right a little... the blob on the top right is a hand covering his eyes..

just down and left of that is a little piggy nose with an open mouth below it.. 

you are basically looking at his mouth and nose from the bottom up.. so cute :)

the blob on the left is his body.. the dark circle inside of it is his tummy :)
