Emma - So sorry you're so sick! I hope they are able to get you hydrated and feeling a bit more comfortable.
AFM - Had my ultrasound today! Looks like we are
! She couldn't tell me with 100% certainly but I think just because ultrasounds in general can't be 100% accurate on gender. I was surprised and VERY excited to find that out!
The scan went okay. At first I was feeling really disappointed because she just showed us the baby for about 30 seconds and then turned the screen away for all the measurements and I just felt like it was so anticlimactic and I was worried something would be wrong, so I started tearing up a couple times. But thankfully at the end she showed us the baby again, this time in a bit more detail on the face and such.
It was really nice because when she saw the face she said, "Aww, she's so cute!" and I thought she probably always says that, but a few seconds later she burst, "Ohmygosh she is SOO cute!" and then later when I went to the washroom she told my DH again how adorable our baby was and how most babies she sees just look normal or creepy but ours was soo cute. That made me pretty happy and proud!
Looks like baby has my nose and dh's big round eyes! So I'm excited
They couldn't tell me for sure that the baby was healthy since they have to wait for the radiologist's report and I'll have to wait for my dr to call for that...but she did say everything seemed to be looking good...so that is a relief. I'm sure if there were any red flags we would have heard.
I've been bursting with excitement ever since! We will probably go look at clearance baby girl clothes this evening!
. Dh and I are so in love with him!!!
That's amazing news, I'm so pleased that your baby boy has arrived safely! Can't wait to see a pic of baby and hear his name! Sorry to hear the birth wasn't straight forward, I hope you mend quickly and can go home very soon.
