Week 15

December 12, 2002

Dear Diary,

Well, we are now in Week 15!! I went to the doctor on
Tuesday, not realizing that my appointment was for
Wednesday! I guess I was that excited to go and find out
what the sex of my baby would be! Luckily, the staff at the
hospital were nice enough to let me stay anyway! So,
Tuesday's appointment was my first ultrasound! It was
definitely a moving experience! As i laid on the table and
watched the technician move the apparatus accross my belly,
I could see the baby on the monitor! I could see the basic
parts... the head, the spine, and the legs! And then from
another angle, I could see the baby's arm and tiny fingers!
A tear streamed down the side of my face! I was in such
awe! I had so many questions that day! I wanted to know
exactly how many weeks I was pregnant... and then I wanted
to know the sex of the baby! Unfortunately, it was too
early to learn the sex of the baby... but, it did learn
that my due date was changed from June 3 to May 31! Woohoo!
Therefore, my baby is now about 15 weeks 4 days... give or
take!

So, that was all on Tuesday!

On Wednesday, I went back to the hospital for a prenatal
visit! These appointments seem to be a waste a time..
because at this point.. all they do is check your weight
(mind you... I weighed 184 on October 4; I weighed 192 on
November 15; now on December 11, I weigh 199) -- Go
figure! After they check your weight... you have to go and
pee in a cup for your sugar test! After that they assign
you a room... About 10 minutes later, the doctor shows up
to check the size of your uterus.. ask a couple of
questions.. (have you been spotting? any pains?)... and
then your done! Time to reschedule for another
appointment... next month!

So, that was all on Wednesday!

Oh, I forgot to mention.. I got my first picture of the
baby! The doctor gave me a nice little closeup of the
baby's head and upper chest area! All of this puts
everything in perspective... this is all real.. and not a
dream!

Now.. Even though I did not get the opportunity to find out
the sex of the baby... I really think in my heart... to
this day... that the my baby is a boy! If I'm not
mistaken.. I think I can identify the father's nose in the
ultrasound picture! But, I could be wrong!

But, I will continue to be patient... and wait the 3
weeks... for the next ultrasound appointment!!

One of these days, I'm going to sit here and talk about the
father and our interesting relationship.. but that takes a
lot of thought! So, I'll save that for another day!

Talk to you later,
~WeavQueen~
