The hamburger sign says no turtles here
- Chillin in the breech position
- striking a pose Madonna style (had hand up by face for almost every shot)
- snuggling with placentas
- Livin in-utero
- Flashin the hamburger sign... which, for all of you who are familiar with Ultra-Sound lingo, means that baby Call
IS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!
So much for maternal instinct. I was SURE it was a boy,
But The hamburger sign says no turtles here.
Do you think we could come up with some other terms for recognizing the female anatomy on an ultra sound. I mean there are many things we could compare it to... but a hamburger?!?!?
Maybe this will be the awkward conversation that I bring up sex education with my child... "Well you see honey boys have turtles and little girls have hamburgers"
Or not

ACP Foundation: Health Literacy
In light of my finishing my Medical Terminology course, I thought I would share with you this little video I saw during the semester. It was really eye opening to me... we had a group discussion in class about possible solutions and reasons this problem is increasing. Sure makes you think.
Thank you Quick and Easy Medical Terminology
- Kyphosis- A condition commonly known as humpback or hunchback
- Dysphagia- Inability to swallow or difficulty swallowing.
- Trichosis- Abnormal condition of hair growth, including baldness or excessive hair growth in an unusual place
- Exophthalmos- Protrusion of the eyeballs
And here are a few self diagnosis of my current health condition:
- Polyuria - Excessive urination... especially in the middle of the night.
- Polyphagia- Excessive hunger and uncontrolled eating
- Cephalalgia- Headache
- Narcolepsy- Sudden attacks of sleep that occur at internals
The above was not meant to be a complaint... I am quite enjoying my pregnancy these days. Feeling the baby move is really exciting and makes everything else seem like no big deal.
