Well, it's a girl!!! And a shock to all of us! The ultrasound went well. It was so good to see her moving around. I haven't felt her much. the ultrasound tech said it's because of the location of the placenta. Baby keeps kicking it instead of me and I can't feel her. Although I am starting to feel her more, which is quite a relief. It was just strange to see her kicking and not feel a thing. But at least she was kicking! I guess everything looks good and she could come a couple days early according to her measurements. Oh, man! She's gonna be a big baby. Every time we measure her she is measuring older than she should be. That worries me a little...mainly just because of the delivery. I'm glad she's healthy though! They guesstimated that she weighs about 13 oz at this point. Almost the to pound mark! I can't believe we are half-way there already!
Donny and I left the appointment and I just started sobbing! I'm not sure why, but before the appointment I was really anxious and uptight. So, afterwards I think I just became an emotional wreck! It was so good to hear that she appears to be healthy and to hear that she is in fact a "she", that I think I finally let my gaurd down and my only response was to cry! I asked Donny to drive. He said sure, but asked why. I proceeded to tell him I was about to cry hysterically and that I wouldn't be able to see the road! Lol! He laughed and gave me a big hug! I have such a great husband!
We left the doctor's and went to Babies'R'Us where we bought her first girly outfit. I forgot to take a picture. I'll try to post one later.
(We took this picture 2 days later, but it fits here!)
Same thing happened with me...I have an anterior placenta so it took a long time to feel her kicking.
