The good and the not so good

Well life here in Fargo remains busy! This has been another good and hectic week. The weather is starting to cool and Fall is in the air. This is my FAVORITE time of year! Now if Dustin was just here to enjoy it with me it would be even more perfect. This fall is proving to be a very busy one and looks like it will only get busier. Busy is good though. It keeps me going and helps make the time go by until Dustin comes home.
I have continued to feel well..until Wed. I was walking to the kitchen and got a sharp pain and felt a pop. I went to the couch and discovered I had continued pain and my left side was very tender to the touch. Long story short..after visiting the Dr. on Thurs. she said that I either had a cyst or a problem with the placenta and ordered an ultrasound. I went this morning and (keep in mind this is from the tech..my Dr. has not called yet) I do in fact have a cyst and it is pressing on a nerve since everything is squished in there b/c of baby H. I was glad to have an explanation for my pain in walking and the other many pains I have had due to this cyst. The good part of the visit is that I got to see 30..count em 30 minutes of Baby H today. The techs that my Dr.'s office uses is the reason why I am with my Dr..aside the fact that she is very good. These techs have always been great with me(they truly do way more than they should). We checked out the baby from head to toe and from the looks of it everything looks great! Today it actually looks like a baby and not a blob. It was amazing the changes that had taken place. Baby H slept most of the time but we did get to see a bit of movement. I got over 10 pics from the tech and a few videos on my IPhone for Dad. I can't wait for him to see them tomorrow when he gets to work.
I am and will be fine. I have a pretty good tolerance for pain. I will wait and see what all my Dr. says next week but for now I feel good knowing it is a cyst and Baby H is doing well.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Here is a super quick video of the baby. You can see the arm moving and touching its head.
