Hi baby Elijah,
Oh man, did you cause a scene today. We went to our doctors appointment and we were disappointed to learn that there were no measurements. We thought for sure we would get to see how big you were and how much you weighed but Bonehead put his foot down and we will do it next week.
They did the ultrasound and the tech just stared at the screen.... It seemed like she stared at the screen for days. Then, she started shaking my tummy. I asked her if she was having a hard time finding you taking practice breaths and she said yes. You were sound asleep - you were up all night moving up a storm so it was your rest time. She kept shaking and shaking until my tummy was sore. Still, you were sleeping and not breathing. I asked if we should be worried. She said "Not Yet." Then, she continued shaking. Your dad was flipping out next to me. She said she was going to get the buzzer and I looked at your dad and asked if we were going to be electrocuted but she never came back! Bonehead came in and started staring at the screen too. Finally, you started taking some breaths and your dad started breathing again too. I think you were 1) Being stubborn 2) Just REALLY, REALLY tired. Hopefully, it shows what a good sleeper you will be if we can get you sleeping at NIGHT.
Nothing else new. No photos at all - just a whole lot of shaking. Still on track for my stitch to be out on the 28th but he will not induce me on that day. He won't induce me any earlier than 1/10. I don't think any amount of whining or begging on my part is going to change his mind. Darn it. I guess you will have to do it on your own before then if you want to. I even told him how you pound on my stitch and you want out but he said that it isn't that you want out, it is that I want you out :)
