tmi thursday: the mini-muffin's first photo op

In this photo: I don't have any pants on!!

I had my first ultrasound yesterday. I thought they were going to squeeze some KY Jelly looking stuff on my belly and roll this video camera contraption around on me groin. Oh, no. Instead, my doctor inserted a dildo-ish device right up in my you-know!

FYI. That chair contorts. I was all high up in the air, legs splayed open and feet resting in oven-mit covered stirrups. Next to me, hubs says, "We need a chair like that!"

My mind immediately went to sexy time games, so I got all blushy.

Anywayspice.

Hi, I'm Leigh's uterus! I have a visitor.

Well, there is -- in fact -- a baby inside me. Baby is 1.01 cm long and we got to see the strong heart beat.

Doctor mentioned there is only ONE baby in there. Hallelujah.

My due date is officially December 16, 2010.

Are you sure that's a baby?? it sorta looks like a lima bean! lmao. (JUST KIDDING!) The first time i saw that "magic wanded" I was all like what are you doing with that dildo?? huh? Did they also cover it with a condom & then gel it up? I almost died when they did that one.

Aww, your mini-muffin is wonderful. Congratulations!

And as for the latest ultrasound technology, try to think of it more along the lines of "Abracadabra! You're preggers!" than "bow-chicka-bow-bow".
Yikes! I've heard tell of the scary ultrasound dildo. You are a brave lady...
And congrats again, obvi. :-)

Hahaha. You are funny but cringe just thinking about those pelvic ultrasounds. I feel like I should have a drink - or five - beforehand!

Way cool.
TMI Thursdays ALWAYS makes my week. I almost spit Dr. Pepper onto my laptop when I saw the caption on the first picture.

For the first child, there was no dildo ultrasound.

For the second, there was. It took me and my wife BOTH aback. She was like "Well, uh, um, okay, I gues--Hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallela-loo-jah! What, no, honey, you could never be replaced."

LOL. I loved the caption on the first picture too. Yay for a healthy baby! Congrats!!!!

Awesome, glad everything is well. And yes, that first ultrasound is pretty, uh, personal, lol. This is when our husbands are thinking--man, I'm glad I'm a dude and just have to watch.

Just wait until delivery day gets here and you have no pants on with A LOT of strangers in the room with you!

My favorite thing about the ultrasound dildo is that your hubs gets to be in the room, watching, while ANOTHER MAN (or woman, if is the case) totally sticks thinks in your woohoo and your hubs just sits there! While he/she sticks dildos in you! And he watches!

Be sure to point that out to hubs if you haven't already.

The uterus with a visitor line cracked me up SO BAD!! You totally need to write a non-fic humor book about first pregnancy. You would make it amberliciously hilarious!

fetal friday?

I know that I left everyone hanging yesterday. You know, when I went to pee on that stick. (That was mean of me. Not the peeing, but the leaving hanging.) Well, I think the big reveal is best expressed in letter form. Deep breath. Here goes. dear unborn baby daughter son or daughter, I take it back. I take back everything I said about not wanting kids. I was just scaredspice, and the slightest bit selfish, and maybe I had a giant fear of commitment. But, three positive test results in the last eighteen hours seem to say that you actually are in there, getting all comfy. I guess you'll probably be here in mid-December. I never thought about having a Christmas baby. (You've really put a wrench in my whole taking-maternity-leave-during-the-NCAA-tournament plan, but that's okay. At least it's basketball season. Don't tell Daddy yet, but you are going to cheer for the Indiana Hoosiers.) Speaking of Daddy, I take back all the mean things I've ever sa...

love at first sight blogfest, or, go eat a heart-shaped cookie

Courtney Reese is hosting a love at first sight blogfest, in which writer's write about the icky love stuff. Check it out -- there are already a ton of entries over there. Okay, so my scene isn't really love at first sight for my mc, Laurel (in fact, she doesn't even want it to be) but this is the first time she interacts with her second love interest, David.  Read! Enjoy! Critique!      A sea of southerners filled the lobby of the movie theater. David Winter stood at a neon orange podium in the center of the throng, his head throbbing. He tore off one ticket stub after another, pointed the masses in the appropriate direction. The work was monotonous. Most of the patrons were lost in conversations with one another, and they paid David the same lack of attention that he showed them. He tried not to grimace at the giggling teenage girls, the smug looking guys in gold chains, the overweight middle aged couples: all annoyed him equa...
