YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are having a girl! Well, actually the baby was small and head down so the sonogram lady was not 100% sure but almost certain that it is indeed a girl. I talked to the doctor and he said that he was also pretty certain that it was a girl as well. He said, "If you cannot see something sticking up, then it is a girl!" Ha! I had a feeling it was, and I was right! I guess my motherly instinct was correct! I have felt that God was going to give me a girl even before I was pregnant. God is so good to not only give me a baby but also a little girl. Once again, he has given me a desire of my heart! YEAH GOD! My mom and sister are ecstatic about the news! Scott is happy too, but probably more for me than for him. He knew how badly I wanted a little girl! My little nieces are going to have a little playmate, and my sister and brother-in-law are thrilled to be able to get rid of all the girl stuff that they have been storing up in the attic! I am just glad that I am not going to have to pack up all my girl stuff. I get to use it, and I also get to start decorating! How exciting is that?!?
The baby is doing great! The heart rate is normal, and the baby weighs 7 ounces. That is a little small but not bad. The average size for this stage is 8-9 ounces. I haven't gained too much weight; they are very pleased with my weight gain and blood pressure. They are as delighted as me that things are going well. Praise the Lord! What a blessing! I just have to go get my Gestational Diabetes test done before my next appointment. I am also going to take a breastfeeding class, schedule a meeting with a pediatrician that has been recommended to me by my sister, and take a tour of the hospital. Oh, and I registered for some things today as well. It was a lot of fun! I am holding off on registering for really girly things until next month when they do another sonogram and confirm for sure that it is a girl. However, I am not holding off to start decorating the room. I just do not think that I can wait any longer! I will post pictures as I decorate the room so you can see my progress. I will also post some playroom pictures soon as well. It turned out super cute and is all finished! YEAH! :)
Thanks for sharing in our joy! I will post the sonogram pictures soon! :)
