The doctors office even called ahead, which was nice - they were expecting me at the ER. Everyone was nice and friendly... and it wasn't busy. All good things. The doc who saw me was positive there was nothing wrong baby-wise, but were going to listen for the heartbeat anyway. Their doppler SUCKED and the first nurse that tried couldn't find it. I wasn't THAT nervous as I had felt movement as I was sitting there... but still.
After ruling out a bowel obstruction (and the yucky yucky solution to that issue), the one thing left was possible gallstones - so I had to get an ultrasound. Now - the u/s tech told me that she couldn't legally sneak a look at the baby - but by the end of the exam, I had used my considerable charm, and lookie what I got:
That is my little one's face, with his/her arms up! How freaking awesome is that!!!
So - sure, it sucked to have to go to the ER. But getting to see my baby on 3d? So cool!
The final verdict was acid reflux, which I've never had before. I'm on Zantac, and feeling a lot better (thank god).

Aww he/she is so cute!
I'm glad they solved it and you are feeling better!
Beautiful!
At least something great came from the trip to the ER! Just too cute!!
Sorry to hear about the acid reflux. It happens to the best of us. Mine isn't painful, fortunately, but it's definitely uncomfortable. Mine gets a lot worse at night.
I never got a 3D, how gorgeous :)
Oh, and I had the reflux from hell, but it does go away post partum,

Going to the ER must be better when you can get a sneak peek at your little one. I'm glad it wasn't gallstones, and I hope the Zantec keeps the acid reflux away.
What a sweet face! I'm glad the Zantac is working and really glad it wasn't an obstruction or gallstones. I hope that's the only drama for you this trimester!
Adorable! Medicine is amazing isn't it?
Wonderful picture! It brought tears to my eyes - I'm so happy to see Braun junior. Can't wait until December!
