Yes, this took me 2 days to write.
CT and I had our ultrasound today (Wednesday)!! Wow- we were so excited and still are. I cried looking at the brain and heartbeat... we hadn't even gotten to the sex of the baby yet! CT took a little video on his phone but I have no idea how to upload that. I'll work on it b/c for some reason none of the pics from the U/S would save on our flash drive. But we're going to try and go back with a different one next week-ish.
So remember how I said I had gained like 3 or 4lbs in about 2 weeks? And it was like I got HUGE all of a sudden. Well, before this ultrasound the baby was measuring 2 days behind my due date, now it's measuring a whoppin' 9 days further ahead! Woah- big baby coming I'm afraid. I've definitely been feeling the stretching in my sides lately too, but I don't mind it one bit. I should probably just eat a bit less. Last night CT was rubbing some Bio Oil on my belly and he said "Are you pushing out your belly on purpose?" I said "I'M NOT!!!" He just started laughing... "Oh... well then it's getting big." ;). I had been telling him for the past couple weeks, I'm never going to make it to June 10th. I just feel enormous!
Enough about my largeness. I woke up this morning and wasn't feeling Tiny Thompson move so I went and ate some fruit... nothing. Drank some juice.... nothing. Ate 2 eggs, toast, and grits.... nothing. So I won't lie. I was getting worried. So as soon as I saw that sweet little heart beating I was crying. I didn't care about anything else. I knew it was silly and I truly have had a peace that the Lord is going to see this pregnancy through- but it was just unusual not to feel it moving.
Later in the U/S he was showing me "This is the femur..." and I said "It's female?" I mean he was of Indian decent so it wasn't like I was listening to someone with my same accent. The doctor looked at me and said "FE-MUR" I was like "yea, thats what I said." He also switched it over to 3D. Um... really cool. Got to see TT's little squishy face! Little cutie pie was opening it's mouth- almost like yawning. GOODNESS! I cannot wait to meet him/her!! I'm getting SO excited about JUNE!!
I promise to post pics of Tiny Thompson as soon as we can get them!
My 20 week shot... sorry, no Wallace. Maybe next time!
(Sorry to those who this this is SUPER immodest, BUT thankfully it's just close friends and family that have this blog. If you're offended by my bare belly pics... um... stop looking at it and make sure your husbands aren't around when you view it!)
Hey Friend! I think your belly is evidence of the God we serve. It's lovely in the purest form!
ReplyDeleteLindy, I'm extremely offended by that bare belly! How dare you;) Haha! Anyway, I'm so excited for you guys and I totally know what you mean-- feeling worried when the baby stops kicking for a while, I get panicky! And then he starts kicking and I feel silly (but relieved) for being so worried. Love, Sarah K
ReplyDeleteYour sweet little belly makes your hiney look even flatter, if that's even possible.
ReplyDeleteOh man, HURRY UP AND GET HERE. The suspense is driving me nutso!

LOVE seeing your baby belly. Wish I could see it in person . . . oh,wait, I might get to! My sweet Kai was just praying for baby Thompson tonight before bed. We pray for your not-so-tiny bundle every day as a family.
