Andi’s exciting life.

Matt hates it when people tell about their dreams, so I’m thinking as I write this that he will think this is a boring post. I have been dreaming a lot about the ultrasound though and thought I should document it while I can still remember. Friday night I was thinking a lot about the ultrasound and realized that I had only been thinking about the gender and hadn’t even considered the possibility that they could find a problem. I truly think our baby is fine, but it did get me worried a little. That night, I first dreamed that we had to do some kind of group ultrasound in a pool. We went into a big room with an indoor pool, and all the women getting ultrasounds had to get naked and get into the pool. I don’t think my dream actually got any farther than just being mortified about getting naked in front of all those strangers. Then it jumped to getting a letter that said we had to come back in for a follow up ultrasound to recheck a blood clot that was found on the first one. Hopefully that was just my nerves making me dream that.

Last night, I dreamed about the ultrasound again. This time the baby wouldn’t cooperate and get into a position where we could see the gender (my current worry). At the very end, the baby finally moved so that we could see, and it was a boy. I remember very distinctly seeing the testicles and being told it was a boy. We’ll have to see if that comes true!

On another note, this morning I was pretty uncomfortable when I woke up. My belly felt so tight like it would pop. I have been sleeping OK, but I’m trying to sleep on my side, which is best for the baby but which I do not find to be very comfortable. I’m sure that as my belly grows sleeping is going to become more and more of a challenge. I’m so eager for that big pregnant belly though that it will be worth it
