I had a doctor appt last Thursday.
After waiting for over an hour, they asked me if I would see another doctor because Dr M was way behind.
I refused and said I would just leave if he couldn't see me.
Twenty minutes later I got to see him.
He measured my belly and told me that I was measuring "way big".
Then he told me he thought the baby was sideways.
Okay, does anybody remember when I was pregnant with Dakotah? She was sideways and I had an inversion done and it hurt really, really bad. It could be used as a form of torture, it is very painful. So after he said that, all I could think was "NO!! Not the torture!" Even when Dr M reassured me that he had fingers of magic, I told him that it would still hurt. That was frustrating news but I had to remind myself that the baby was still alive, that was more important. Okay.
Then Dr M told me he wanted an ultrasound done to check the position and fluid.
Yay! I would get to see my baby again.
Today I had the ultrasound.
The baby is head down. (Good baby.)
There is plenty of fluid.
I am measuring just right for my due date.
The heartbeat was mesmerizing. It is such a beautiful sight.
Stay tuned for the exciting story on how our baby got his name!!

Phew!! It sounds like you're receiving excellent, attentive care. I'm sure that helps a lot with the crazy emotions.
