Today's experience at North State Imaging was far better then our trip last year. It was our ultrasound appointment. When we went to see Ava at twenty weeks, I stupidly followed the directions on the handout perfectly. What I didn't realize was A) my bladder seemed to be forty times smaller then the average bladder and B) the office was going to be over 45 minutes behind schedule. I truly thought I was going to pee all over their carpet and I wouldn't have felt bad at all since the office staff were so incredibly rude. However, once inside the room, our technician was so amazing it almost made up for the crap we went through just to see our daughter. With this in mind, I was very hesitant as I was preparing for today's appointment. Aaron and I decided that I would drink only half of the full quart I was meant to drink and not worry about finishing the water an hour before the exam. I continued sipping as we drove to the office building. We crowded into the small room, Aaron, Ava, me and my Mom. I got the best spot, stretched out on a bed. I was more relaxed and the technician was able to take her time and look at our baby very closely. At first, in her soft South African accent, she said the baby could very well be another girl, it wasn't until the end when the baby shifted perfectly and the technician said: oh, wow, can you guess what that is?
Lets just say, it's bigger then I thought it would be.
