All the predictions were wrong. My gut instinct was right all along - we are having a baby boy! We are both so happy (and would have been if we were having a daughter instead of a son). It suddenly feels very real. I can now start referring to the baby as he or him rather than "it". And the best part of the appointment was seeing our little boy on the ultrasound. He was quite active, and most important, he's healthy. He was moving so much that they couldn't get great pictures of his heart, so I get to go back in 4 weeks for another ultrasound! And not to worry - she said the pictures they did get of his heart look good, they'd just prefer a few more.
And both the ultrasound tech and the doctor commented on how big he was! My mom and I went looking at baby clothes/furniture after the appointment and I held up a newborn onesies to my belly and asked my mom, "Is he really going to be that big when he arrives?!?!" She bluntly told me, probably bigger. Yikes!
So now its time to start concentrating on boy names and give this kid a name!
Here are a few pics - Mr. Cob has the CD of all the pictures, these are just from the few printouts I have on me.
I love him and his parents!
