Got to see Fig!

11:21pm.
So today was the big day.
We finally got to see Fig!!!
It was very exciting!
I woke-up feeling sick, from over-sleeping as usual.
I did a load of laundry, had a shower, got ready for my day, then sat waiting for 10:40am to arrive, when I would have to drink my 3 tall glasses of water, then wait for 12:40pm to arrive to finally get the Ultrasound.
Well I drank the water, was fine, then 11:30 rolled around and I had to PEE.
It was horrible. The longer I went the worse it got.
Finally 12 came and Chris came home, and I was in agony.
I couldn't sit down, I couldn't stand, I couldn't walk. I couldn't do anything!
My mom called and asked if she could come to the Ultrasound too, so I told her to meet us there, because we were leaving then, because I couldn't stand it anymore.
At the Ultrasound place, Chris informed me that you were supposed to bring the paper that the doctor gives you telling you about the Ultrasound, I was not aware of this, so we had to wait for my doctors office to fax it over. While waiting my aunt and uncle were also waiting for an Ultrasound, not for the same reasons tho. It was funny running into them there of all places!
Finally I got to go into the Ultrasound room, and the doctor told me to relieve myself just by a cups worth, and it was heaven on earth empting my bladder, i'll tell you!
Then I had to lie down and the Ultrasound Tech splathered warm jelly on my belly and we sat in silence as he ran it over my full bladder, and I felt uncomfortable, because it kinda hurt when he would go over and over the same spot, or when he'd twist the ultrasound scopy thing in.
Then FINALLY he said I could see, and he didn't realize that I had my husband and mom outside waiting to come in, so he grabbed them and showed us Fig!
Fig was bopping his head, and waving, and kicking his little feet, and sucking his thumb! It was so neat to see!
One of the pics we have of him, he's staring right at us! Kinda alien like, the whole time that I was watching Fig, I felt like it was something out of I-Robot, just the mechanical movements, and to see this being that's growing inside of me, moving around, having a party, was funny. And overwhelming.
The Ultrasound Tech, showed us the Placenta too, and it was funny, 'cause he said "There's the Placenta...that's pretty much the babies Safeway" lol.
Anyway after that i got to let all my pee out, then we got a disc of the pictures! and Chris and I went for lunch at my dads restuarant with my mom, and then we went to Walmart to return our Airmatress we bought for Victoria, and to get the pictures printed, but they didn't work, so we went to Safeway and they didn't work either, and the lady said she had someone come in last week and couldn't get it to work either.
We paid some of our Wedding Hall bill, that I didn't know that my mom still owed money on too.
Chris and I went home and got the pictures to work, and saved them onto disc and went back to Shoppers got he pictures developed, and showed Brenda, and she gave me some face cream to try, and I bought some shampoo then we went to Craig and Chelseys, showed them the pic, Chels gave me a baby book, that's very graphic. :S
then we went home and Chris changed and I took him back to work, and I went to my parents house to show my sister the pics, but she wasn't home yet, so I visited with my mom, and ended up staying for dinner. It was yummy!
Showed my Dad the u/s picture he was very surpised at how much they show. He had never seen a Ultrasound photo before I guess!
Then I picked up Chris and took him to Wendy's for dinner, and now I'm here.
Long day, been a good weekend. I will write about the weekend later.
My eyes hurt, and I don't want to work tomorrow. :S
CIAO.
