The Moment That Made Me Panic at 36 Weeks
When I was pregnant, my tiny dog, Rusty, decided to jump onto my belly when I was 36 weeks pregnant. He just wanted attention, but it really hurt, and I got so nervous. I could actually feel the shape of his paw on my belly. 😭
I scheduled an appointment with my OB the next day. When I explained to the nurse what had happened, she looked at me like I was crazy and said, “Your baby is surrounded by water, so that protects them. How big is your dog?” 😂
Rusty is a Shih Tzu mix, so he’s pretty small. She said she didn’t think my baby was in danger and that I didn’t need an ultrasound, but that we could listen to my baby’s heartbeat. I agreed. She listened for less than two minutes and called it a day.
Even though my baby was completely fine, I didn’t love the way the situation was handled. During my pregnancy, I had so many different fears, so even though she told me my baby was fine, I was still worried.
When I discovered Premier Viewing Imaging, I wished I had known about them earlier!
If you want to check on your baby just because you can, you can schedule an appointment with them—and you can even see your baby’s face in 3D! They take their time and really make sure you get beautiful first images of your baby that you can preserve forever. Sometimes babies like to cover their faces, so they’re patient and take the time to get those sweet little details. 🤍
So, if you fall, have a small accident, your OB isn’t available, or you simply want to see your baby just because, I would definitely recommend them, especially if you live in Atlanta, Georgia.
Obviously, this doesn’t replace seeing your OB or getting medical care when you need it, but it’s nice to have another option if you simply want to see your baby sooner and have some reassurance. 🤍
They can even record your baby’s heartbeat and preserve it inside a teddy bear so you or your children can listen to it later. Isn’t it the cutest? 🧸🤍
