14 wks and 6 days Ultra Sound



June 7th, monday, we went to my doctor's appointment and had an ultrasound to check my cervix and see the baby. My doctor mentioned last time that they may be able to determine the sex of the baby at this visit , especially if it was a boy. So Faron came with me, just in case. It was so nice to have him there with me. He hadn't been to any of the previous visits or had the chance to see the baby via ultrasound. So this was the perfect time, because it's starting to really look like a baby.
Everything was fine with me and then we got to the baby and I just get so nervous. You want everything to be okay. Then we saw the baby moving around and we heard the heart beat (148) , so it was perfect. It's like you can breath because you know the baby is doing fine. I think we both got teary eyed. It just makes it so much more real to actually see your child .
Then we asked if she could look for the gender. She gave a us a warning that this early things could be wrong, so don't go and buy anything or paint the room just yet. We totally agreed. We weren't putting a whole lot of stock into it, but excited just the same if she was able to tell. So,she got to where she could see and before she said anything it popped in my mind popped "girl" and Faron later told me the same thing. Then she said .. " If I had to say today, I would say girl." So... we could be seeing PINK in the future! I'm trying to not concentrate too much on it though, because if it turns out that it's a boy, I would be just as thrilled. But I think we have been thinking girl even before I was pregnant.
Either way, it was a fantastic day. We are just so excited baby is healthy and doing so well. We go back July 5th for the confirmation of the gender. So excited! Will keep you posted.
