Fine! Okay! Here's your freaking post!

So as most of you have already heard, Lazlo and I got our 3D ultrasound on Monday, and El Milagro is actually La Milagra, or whatever, I'm not really sure of the spelling. Anyway, it's a she, and she's healthy, as far as he (the doctor) could tell. Chase, not very diplomatically, asked the doctor how often he was wrong about the sex, and the doctor answered in a pissed-off, cocky way that made us pretty sure we'll be meeting a tiny little girl in roughly four months.

Overall I'd have to say the whole experience was pretty intense, and not in a "so sweet it makes you cry" way... more of a "creepy skull baby looks like a fish" way. I wasn't prepared for the fact that they spend most of the time looking -inside- the baby, not at it. We saw the spine, brain, spleen, liver, placenta, blood flow to the heart, all kinds of crazy things. Basically she's already all made, and all she has to do now is grow. She also moves around -a lot- which is pretty disorienting when you're wearing 3D glasses.

What was to me, cooler than the ultrasound, was feeling the baby kick the next day. Once I felt a strong enough kick I kind of realized it had been going on for a little while, but now there's no mistaking it. Chase can put his hand on my belly and feel it. She's gonna be a soccer player, yes she i-i-is.

Anyway Chase says he'll post some of the pictures soon, and if you guys are REALLY lucky he'll post the video. Keep an eye out for my cervix.

give me more cervix!!

i have to say the c-word gave me a gag reflex.

i was also thinking... "la milagra" in it's cute form would be "la milagrita" which sounds a lot like "la margarita" to me.

only four months to go. holy moly!

the squeamish masses have appeared.

1) "gag reflex" is not a phrase you want to use lightly around me these days. i expect to see vomit, or at least bile. get out the webcam, or say it made you feel -slightly uncomfortable-

2) which is still indefinsable- because the cervix is not a sex organ by any stretch of the imagination. it's like me saying -urethra- or -kidney- makes me get all hot and bothered. ridiculous.
