Braxton's 20 Week Ultra Sound

EVERYTHING went so perfect! Sigh of relief!! You always know it will but, there is still that inch of worry in you. My friend just had her baby yesterday & the whole pregnancy went great but only a few hours after being born he was life flighted to Primary Children's Hospital. He has quite a few heart problems and will need a few open heart surgeries. It scared me to death. I just kept asking her how did they not catch that on the ultra sound?
So, I won't lie, I let it get to me and ended up being nervous all day! To add to that I was already nervous because I hadn't felt him since Friday. ( I know I worry too much) I know I am not to the point yet of feeling him ALL the time but last week he was very active and I felt him at least once a day so after feeling him as much as I did I thought I was to the point where I should. We tried everything Saturday night & Sunday afternoon. We played music for him with head phones on my stomach, we rubbed my belly over and over again, & I tried changing positions a few times as well & nothing. So I finally asked Ty to give me a blessing to help comfort me. Right after Tyler was done with the blessing we got into bed and I asked Ty to try just one more time to see if he would move for him. Sure enough the second Ty put his hands on my belly he started kicking.... HARD! Ty felt him for the first time last night. It was so cute. Ty about jumped out of his skin and looked at me and said "Was that... Was that..??" He couldn't even get it out! It was the best moment. I guess we know who he likes better already! He won't move for me! Next time I will just got straight for Ty!





Every time she would poke him to look at things a little better he would kick or punch right back. Tyler jokes that he likes sleep as much as I do and hates to be woken up in the wrong way!! You can't tell in this picture but he was just chillen with his arm up above his head. He must be really comfortable in there.
When she was looking at the heart(for like the 4th time, because I told her about my friend) She finally put on the sound so we could hear the heart beat! He jumped right when he heard it. She said her volume was up really load and it must have scared him because he kept moving away from the noise. I hope he isn't a sissy! But it was darling! Just tell me why he won't even acknowledge me when I play music on my belly? We'll have to have Ty try!


I wish he would have let us get a good side profile of him, but I think he wasn't too happy about being poked at so we took what he would give us. He ended up just looking straight at the camera the whole time! It was so fun to see him move and to watch his mouth open and close. Makes me even more anxious!
