Our big 20-week anatomy scan is later today. I am a mix of excited and nervous. I am so looking forward to seeing the baby (haven't seen him since 8 weeks), and I am trying to stay optimistic about everything.
I had a nightmare last night that someone switched doctors on me so that we ended up with a ditsy, brand-new doctor who wouldn't give us the ultrasound. She made us wait six hours for our appointment, etc. I am still trying to shake off the anxiety from that dream.
So, positive thoughts would be most welcome! Thanks.

**UPDATE**
Everything looked great.

Baby boy punched at the ultrasound wand, kicked and even had the hiccups. It was so cool to see him move, and we have some great take-home images.
Doc said everything was measuring well and all looks good.
I so appreciate all the good wishes. It's feeling really real now. As DH said to me during the u/s, "Hey! You have a little person in there." Yeah, we do.

We just posted our announcement on Facebook as well. I even feel good about that part, even though it was hard to hit that "post" button.
