Still a girl !!!

This is what the ultrasound tech typed on the picture today when we went in. Boy would I have been shocked if she had morphed into something else... Jeremy probably would have jumped for joy and shouted "We are so naming her Optimis Prime!"

Warning: This is long.

We really did have an adventure today though. See a month ago when my doctors office set up this appointment she told me it was in St. George at the old hospital and that I needed to enter from the front. I asked if it was where you got x-rays and she said yes.
Well today we went to what used to be the front of the old hospital and it is now a Child Development center and they told us to go around to the old ER entrance. So we went through there and down to x-rays and we told the lady there that we had an appointment with Dr. Gonzalez and she looked in her computer and told us that she did not have an appointment for us...
So I called my doctors office and they said that they had scheduled it and then the lady in x-rays asked if it was for a prenatal ultrasound looking for a defect. WE said yes and she told us that we were in the wrong place. We needed to go down the hall, take a left then a slight right and go up the stairs and then to our right again and then we would come to some doors. So Jeremy and I went down the hall and when we took the left and got to the end of the hall there was a door to our right, but it was locked. We asked another person and she didn't know where we were talking about so we all went back to x-rays ( I want to add that I had a very full bladder and I was NOT happy with all the walking around) and asked the lady and she said... "Did you go outside?" NO! Nobody said anything about going outside. Don't you think that would have been an important thing to say when giving directions? So we went outside and up the stairs to the right... Why didn't anybody just say "Go to the labor and delivery entrance" I know where that is!!!
So we finally get there and the receptionist hands me a piece of paper and asks me to cross out anything that is wrong.
Well, the middle name is wrong, the address is wrong, the SS# is wrong and so I glance down and nothing is right. I told the lady and she looks ant me and says "What's your name?"
"Lacie P. Christensen"
"Not Lacie K Christensen?"
"nope"
"When is your Birthday?"
"2/27/81"
"Not 11/17/81?"
"nope"
"Hmm, we have the wrong Lacie"
Yeah, ya think. Didn't they trust me when I said "this isn't me"?
Well, then we sat out in the waiting room for 20 minutes and finally I couldn't take it anymore. I went in and asked if I need a full bladder for this ultrasound and the lady said no. WHY would my doctors office tell me I needed one? I just turned around and went to the lady's room where I stayed for quite awhile. When I came out Jeremy was waiting for me, they had called my name.
Honestly though I would have been glad to wait longer I was in such a better mood.
Everything went great after that. the tech was awesome and took lots of picture and we got to see her open her mouth and it was confirmed she was still a girl :) the Dr. took tons of pictures of her heart and said from what he saw everything looked perfect! Such a relief. I have been so worried the last couple of weeks. It is such anamazing thing to see the heart beat of my baby. To see the blood flowing perfectly. Life is so amazing.



Here are some pictures for my previous post:

So glad she is ok. Worrying about birth defects is so scary. Too bad hospitals don't think they need to have good customer service. Jac is adorable.

ANNOYING! I'm sorry you had to deal with stupid people but I'm glad everything turned out okay. LOVE the Superman Blue toes!

There needs to be a class on giving directions. Honestly some people could give directions if their life depended on it. Glad you made it there though. Love the toes.
