IT'S A GIRL!!!!

Need I say more? She looks healthy & had a fantastic photo session. The ultrasound tech said a number of the pictures were textbook quality. He got a perfect picture of where the umbilical cord attaches to the stomach, a perfect picture of the heart. I do NOT have an anterior placenta, which surprised me. Seems I just have a very relaxed child in there because she doesn't move around all that much. I even drank a 7Up before my appointment in hopes that the sugar would get her moving, but it had no effect. Maybe caffeine plays a bigger role than sugar? The important thing is that she's looking good, has a heart rate of 143 beats per minute, and is measuring right on track, if not a little ahead. He said she's 11 oz, so about the weight of a can of soda! Welcome Kaitlyn Elaine!:)

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow at this time I'll know what Baby J is! I've been so busy with our moving stuff & getting houses cleaned up & ready to paint, etc. that time has gotten away from me! All my other pregnancies I would anxiously await this appointment & time would seem to drag on, but not this time! I'm so busy I hope I don't forget to go to the appointment! Just kidding, I don't think I could forget something that important!
