Doctor's Appointment

Here are two of the latest pictures of our sweet baby!

The first one is a great profile shot and the second is the baby kind of on it's side. We also have a 7 minute DVD but don't worry I won't subject you to that! Just our families!

The doctor today was a MFM specialist and used all sorts of cool measurements and predictors while taking the ultrasound. Baby is measuring PERFECT..(12 weeks 4 days) and is "due" August 19. The heartbeat was 160 and strong and the brain, arms, and legs all measured perfect. There was no sign of downs syndrome or the other defects that they test for either! We will meet with this doctor one more time at 16 weeks to look at the heart, facial anatomy, and over all body just for a good once over.

We told him at the very end that we knew it was WAY early but could he use his expertise to "guess" on a gender. He scanned down the body, the waved the mouse over the "area", and said...Those are girl parts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's right!!!!!!!!! We are having a girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I promised Jo that I wouldn't start buying or decorating until 4 more weeks when he can tell us 100% for sure, but the specialists words and showing us the area is good enough for me!
