17 Week Update

I went back to the doctor on Monday for my monthly visit. For those of you that don't know, my midwife is also my cousin!! How cool is that?? She's sort of giving me special treatment because she does an ultrasound at every visit so we are able to really see how much the baby grows each month! It's amazing!! She had told me that we should be able to see if we are having a Baby He Dorminy or a Baby She Dorminy at our latest visit. After about 30 minutes of trying to get the baby to cooperate, we finally got a couple of sneak peeks! It looks like we are having a girl! The baby had her legs tightly crossed at the ankles for almost the entire visit. Dianne said she was about 80% confident that it was a girl, but that she just didn't get a good enough to be 100% confident! I told her that we weren't going to be going out anytime soon to buy paint or anything! For now, we are planning on a baby girl!!! We also got a picture of her with her hand fully opened. Matt said she was already asking daddy for money!

I go back for my next appointment July 18, so we will get to take another look at her! We will also go to the specialist for our 20 week ultrasound on that same day. There they will look at the chambers of the heart and all the organs! It is absolutely amazing watching this baby grow!!!
