I will admit that I am a little shocked! Up until 2 weeks ago, I was certain this baby was a boy. Then for the last couple weeks, I have been feeling confused and until I woke up one morning and said to myself......I think I'm baking a little girl! But of course I still wasn't super confident. I was in Target yesterday an walked by some little boys plaid shirts and jeans and I got a little sad. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled to have a little princess but, it is going to take some getting used to.
During my ultrasound, the tech was talking to us about what she was doing and showing us her little fingers and toes. It was so cute. I am disappointed though that I didn't get any good pics of her. I will post the few pics I have this weekend. But, I do have to have a follow-up ultrasound in 3 weeks because we were not able to get a good view of her heart, face or cord. My tech said she should be able to get better pics since the baby will be bigger then. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
My little buns heart was beating at 148 bpm and she is weighing 11oz. And I have only gained 2lbs total! YAY!
Oh, and I should add that my OBGYN has decided to refer me to a Perinatologist to look me over and determine if I am high-risk. I guess with all the possible heart-related issues I have, she just wants to have all of her bases covered. I'll let you know something when I know something.
Time for daddy and I to start thinking about names. This should be interesting.
