Ultrasounds From HELL!!!!

So today was my fifth ultrasound, the first two I had were just fine, but my last three have been some of the WORST experiences in my pregnancies thus far!!! As I lay there, about five or ten minutes into it my whole body starts to break out in intense sweats and then the nausea hits and hits hard!! OMG!! The first time this happened I was laying there and didn't say anything, but the tech looked at me and said "You don't feel good do you?" I didn't want to make a big deal about it and make him stop, but honestly I almost threw-up on the poor guy. He TOTALLY understood, and explained to me what was happening. I thought it was just me!!! Nice to know it wasn't. He said as the baby gets bigger, sometimes when you lay on your back, the blood vessles to your brain get pinched off by the weight. (That does not sound good :0/ ) It's known to cause dizziness, sweats, and nausea, sometimes bad enough to where you throw-up. WOW!! Some of the things that come along with being pergnant.......LoL It makes me feel SO BAD though!!! Not being able to enjoy wathching her :0(.. But what can you do!?! Anyways.....even though I got sick today it was an AWSOME ultrasound. I think it's so amazing every time I go in to see what has changed and how much she has grown!! It blows me away knowing that Dameon and me have created something so special!! Today the woman told me she is now 4lbs or more and I am able to see her better. I have been told by all my doctors and ultrasound techs I have met, she is a VERY active little girl!! Hehehe She moves SO MUCH sometimes it's impossible for the tech to get a good view of her or the doctor to get her heartbeat. I blame her daddy!! LoL SUPER active daddy = SUPER active baby girl!!! Hehehe He's one of those people who can't sit still long, well if he's not playing video games!! Hehe I also got to see one of the SWEETEST things today, the tech, at one point, was actually able to get a good view of her face and I could see her opening and closing her little mouth, like when they eat baby food. OMG!!! My heart melted!! So sweet!! and AMAZING!! Hehe I know I am such a nerd when it comes to my daughter. I get SO EXCITED with everything having to do with her even though she's not born yet....Hehehe I can only IMAGINE!! what I will be like when she's here!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!
