So 4 more days until the 3rd ultrasound and possible amnio...  I am trying not to think about it, but it creeps into my head several times a day...  Hubby is too excited to find out the sex and seems to be forgetting the importance of this ultrasound.  The little monster is definitely alive and growing as is evident by my slowly protruding belly.  It seems as though it grows overnight.  I have random pain in my lower ab area and have been having excrutiating lower back pain.  There have been nights I can barely walk and make it up the stairs to the bedroom.  I hope this doesn't last throughout the entire pregnancy because I don't know if I can handle it.  I think I might ask my OB if it's okay to get accupuncture.  I am definitely starting to physically feel pregnant and I guess look it too.  Hubby asked the other day if I was sticking my stomach out on purpose and I was like what!?  I guess I was sitting in a relaxed state and my belly was just sticking out and it took him by surprise.  In a way I just want Friday to come and go and another part of me is dreading Friday.  I guess there is no way around it though...
