...BOY!!!!!!!!!!! Perfectly healthy and extremely active! My face literally hurts from smiling today. The world looks different all of a sudden. I'm living in Goosebump City!! I could hardly sleep last night because I was so intensely curious to finally see our baby and it was even more miraculous than I had imagined. The technician went through about an hour of looking at the baby from every single angle possible...checking the heart, the brain, the spine, kidneys, etc...even down to counting the fingers...everything looked great. After all of the measuring, recording and such, the technician turned off the screen, wiped off my belly and turned to us to ask if we had any questions. My husband, David, and I looked at each other and then at the tech and said...um, could you tell us if it's a boy or a girl?
She said "oh yeah, sure...we don't usually locate the sex unless the couple asks." Anyway, she lubed me up again, switched on the machine and went searching. That baby was squirming around all over the place and then all of the sudden she hit a button and said "okay, there you go"...pointing right at his male parts. David practically shouted..."it's a BOY!" There was no mistaking it...and the tech said that she was 100% sure of it! You should have seen my hubby smiling ear to ear and puffing out his chest with pride. I, of course, cried in happiness and amazement. I hate to sound so corny...but wow, what a feeling!
I've got a photo of the ultrasound, but I don't know how to attach it. He's actually sucking his thumb. Now, the challenge of picking a name!!
