My inlaws were in town for most of this week (and I just got back from visiting my parents the prior week), so I think that distracted me my posts. Also, I normally write these in the morning and on the morning of the 20th week I had my ultrasound, so things were crazy when I got back.
Mostly a pretty normal week. I started up my magnesium again (Natural Calm). I'm not having stomach problems but I am having sleeping issues! Super weird dreams and constantly up tossing and turning - it's starting to catch up to me now. I'll probably have to stop again to see if this goes away.
We registered Sean for Kindergarten this past week too!!!! Aaaahh!
I had my 1st true pre-natal massage this past week too. It was really great. A LOT better than I expected. Normally they are uncomfortable and annoying, but this was relaxing and I felt really good when it was over.
The most exciting thing that has happened over the last few weeks is that I had my 20week/anatomy scan! I took Sean and Dan to the scan and the prenatal appointment. Overall, it went really well.
Baby's heartbeat was good
No fluid in the brain
Measuring right on track
No cleft pallet
We saw a little bit of movement, but not a ton. Baby was probably sleeping.
Sean was pretty nervous but also very curious. He said the whole thing was weird.
When the tech was looking in the area where you can see the gender, I told Sean he can look but we weren't - and he still chose to look. He thinks it's a boy, but when the tech was scrolling through all of the pictures she took, I thought what I saw was a girl (so I saw a pic or two I wasn't supposed to).
My midwife wants me to see a Maternal Fetal Medicine doc - so I'm going to one tomorrow. At this point it's just a consult to see if they need to be involved later on.
