sigh... It's been difficult getting back to reality after the Thanksgiving Holiday. We traveled south to Austin to see our family and friends. It has been almost a year since we were there last, so it was so great to see our family and friends that we had not seen in so long! Talk was all about baby!
I did have an appointment yesterday at 14 weeks 2 days. We did get a very thorough u/s and DH and I were so very grateful! Doc says we have a healthy baby who measures right on time! I couldn't have asked for anything more.
I have to be honest, I was a little too preoccupied about possibly getting an idea of the gender prior to my appointment; however, while I was laying down looking at my baby that notion completely escaped me when he measured the head, the belly, and the heart rate and everything was perfect! Then, doc looks between the legs and asks "Would you like any ideas on gender?" I immediately said "Yes!"
Doc is 80% sure we are TEAM PINK!!!
I'm driving myself crazy about the gender stuff though. Please don't get me wrong, first and foremost, I'm forever grateful we have a healthy baby; one that we've waited for for so so long!! I couldn't ask for anything more!! But here are my worries about the gender. During my u/s's at work and my u/s yesterday w/ my doc, both during 14 weeks, we saw 2 lines, but nothing sticking out... I know my doctor has been doing this for a long long time, and I'm trusting that he's right, but I can't help to think doesn't 2 lines mean boy?
We have our anatomy scan on December 21st, so I just need to wait it out, stop getting u/s's at work, and just stop thinking about it!!
If baby cooperates, I will be forever grateful that we will have confirmation by CHRISTMAS!!!!
Here are a few pics from my scan yesterday...

On Friday morning Jan 20, I got out of bed at 8:30 am and felt a tiny
trickle of fluid. Baby had been putting pressure down low so I thought that
maybe I ...

girl parts should look like a pea in a pod, two lines and a little dot at the top between the two lines. That is my rough understanding.
ReplyDeleteBoys just stick out and its pretty obvious.
Hope that helps!

Hooray to a healthy baby!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry - gender will reveal itself soon! lol
