Today was the ultrasound, and I know that some of you have been waiting to hear...but it was at 8:00...Logan and I came home and took a nap.
The ultrasound went well, all the blood work was already entered into the system so they were able to get my results almost immediately. According to my ultrasound and blood work I have a 1 in 3,789 chance of the baby having down syndrome and a 1 in >10,000 chance of the baby having Trisomy 13 or 18. I would say those are pretty good odds.
As for the sex of the baby....we were told NOT to buy anything yet, but if she had to say right now one way or the other...she said it was a girl. Apparently at this point in the pregnancy there is just a peak....if it's a boy it points up, a girl it points down. She said most of the time, it is so hard to tell because it just looks as if it is pointing straight up. My baby's peak; however was pointed down. So we are at about a 70% chance of the baby being a girl...but because of my own personal feelings...I am going to bump it up to about a 90% chance!! We will find out for sure on June 1 at the anatomy ultrasound. Tonight we are traveling up to Conroe again, we are going to the Crawfish festival. JR's cousin is in a band and he plays every year, but this will be the first year that we will be going. I do not eat crawfish, but I am looking forward to some corn and potatoes.
I once again woke up this morning with the same headache. This is going on 3 days with the same headache...it wont go away. This is what I have tried so far.....
Cold rags on the forehead
Tylenol
Ice pack on the back of the neck
Scalp massage
Quiet, Dark room
Rest
Nothing is working...I am getting extremely good at noticing when I am about to vomit, which means that I have been doing really well at making it to the toilet. YAY! Last night at 10:30 I ran to the bathroom and started...and JR calls from the living room, "Are you throwing up?"...Ummm...Hello? Logan was standing next to me the whole time...he was so concerned, he kept trying to hand me the toilet paper....if I wasn't vomiting, I would have been laughing.
If you have any advice on how to get rid of this headache...please let me know.
