Everything in my head is in these little compartments. It's quite interesting really.

sneak peak at baby!
ultra sound update!
(hey my last post was my 444th post! WOW!)
Finally home from our u/s. I have confirmed a few things- yep, that is a butt (big butt in my words, no evidence tho) up in my rib cage right side. And yep, that is a foot firmly planted just below my rib cage on the left side. A very persistant foot.
Baby is not measuring huge. I feel really good about the measurements. + or - 1lb from 7lbs 14oz. And the u/s measurements put an EDD of 11/27 rather then 11/24. Fluid looked good. Otherwise, that baby is squeezed tight in there. I can honestly say my belly is ALL BABY.
We got some good 3d images. Baby was just too big to get any of the regular images to look ok. I am going to try taking a picture of the images so I can post them since I dont have a scanner. I am calling the baby Cheeks till he/she is here. Beautiful chubby checks! Full lips like his/her mommy and brother. Cute nose too.

update
I'm team green, and Chris is team yellow..... so at this point we dont know if it is a boy or a girl. Chris couldnt come with today. But I think I saw a schmeckle!
My OB called. Assured that everything looked good in terms of no reason for bleeding. However they see a bright spot on the heart. He said that is a very mild marker for Downs. So, I am going to keep the Marshfield Clinic in business and go in tomorrow for Quad Screening (which is a blood draw). I am not worried as the tech had a really hard time getting good imiages of the heart because I am just 16 weeks.....
He also suggested I really cut back on lifting as that could really cause more problems with fissures and hemroids. (sarah r., no I havent had any treatment for the fissures besides fiber and stool softners, they really havent helped me either! I had big problems after B was born, and anticipate that again).

TMI!
TMI alert!!!!
So yesterday after a BM, I had lots of blood on the toilet paper. I have problems with fissures, so this is common- however when I cleaned all up I was still getting lots of blood and I wasnt sure where it was come from exactly. Couple hours later and I was still getting blood, but I was assuming it was the fissures acting up. Anyway, things seeemed weird, so I called my OB. Of course they wanted to see me. They swabbed everything under the sun and found no microscopic traces of blood (now this was about 10 hours later). But to be saf they wanted me to get an u/s. I had that this morning. B2 is beautiful! Lots of stretching, and flexing- very cute.
The placenta is not over the cervix, and there appears to be no blood behind the placenta either.
Still no answer about the blood (I am thinking fissures even though my OB disagrees). But all looks good and healthy baby wise. I have some cute pictures to boot. Just need to find some time to scan them in....

first ultra sound!
Looks like another busy baby! We figured I was 11 wks, 5 days yesterday and this baby was so active that she could hardly take her measurements.
We are going with a due date of 11/24.

Dog Puke Tuesday
Good morning Sarah! We got the office emptied last night. So the nursery is ready to be started. I woke up, smiling and walked into the empty nursery just to see it ready to be started. There were 3 piles of dog puke on the carpet. It was 5 stinkin 30. They were pretty dried, so I knew it would take a long time to clean. I had to choose, shower or puke. I cleaned up puke for an hour and 15 minutes! I got the stains out, and my finger tips hurt. Then had just 20 minutes to get me ready for work.
Oliver has been off the last few days. He isnt quite right. The puke confirmed our thoughts.

I had another ultra sound yesterday to check out the size of the baby. The baby is about 1 week big. 4.5 lbs already! The heart beat varied too, which is completely normal, it varies with activity. Honestly, this u/s hurt. She had to get up under my rubs (literally) to get some measurements. OUCH! My belly buttom is purple too. It hurt to lay on my back on that bed.... err board... and I kept feeling like I was gonna pass out. (artery compressed from baby) The images were not as clear as the first u/s either, because the baby was so much bigger. I did get a couple cool 3d/4d images though, and the baby is way cute. I saw fat rolls, and hair! Cute pudgy lips. I could not watch half of it either, each time she went below the belly button of the baby I had to look away. I could not find out if it was a boy or a girl without Chris there!
My new Dr. is ok. Only talked to him for a few minutes. Only really told me what I asked of him. The due date will stay the same, but they will keep monitoring the baby size and make sure he/she does not get too big.
