I had an unusual amount of anxiety coming into this appointment. Like I said before, you don't really have any confirmations that you are still pregnant on a day-to-day basis. Each time I get squirted with the sonogram jelly I hold my breath. Just hoping that something with a heart beat pops up on the screen. Success!
What an insane view a 3d/4d scan is. You can see the baby moving. It is very life like. Surreal.
All of the measurements came back great and I had a very low risk for an abnormalities. They also had a gender guess. Girl! For a brief moment I was confused and a bit taken back. For some reason I really thought I was having a boy. But, come on, tutus and glitter. OK!
That evening I had a follow-up with my doctor and all went great with that too. I couldn't believe it was actually happening. I was going to be a mom.
Now, time to spread the word.
I came into the office that night after my doctor's appointment and told my boss. She was beyond excited! The next day I would tell my besties and my co-workers. It was such an amazing feeling to be able to share this joy with everyone. Even Zach was excited. I was called up to his desk numerous times so that we could tell people together. ll smiles all around.
