Yesterday was such an exciting day for us. For me, it was like Christmas morning. I didn't sleep a wink. We woke up early for our 8am ultrasound apt. When we got to see our little unit on the screen she was on her back hiccuping. It was cute. The ultrasound tech showed us some things, but said that our doctor would go over everything in more detail. We saw the baby's heartbeat and she said it was beating at about 150BPM which was normal and great. We got to see her face, hands, legs, arms and feet. She had us close are eyes so she could get the gender and take a picture of that. That was pretty hard to do as I've been dying to know the gender this ENTIRE pregnancy. She then needed to get a picture of the spine but baby wouldn't flip over so she had me go to the bathroom and stretch and move around. I came back and luckily she flipped onto her stomach and she got the picture she needed and showed us that the spine was great and no sign of spina bifida. We even saw her stick her legs up in the air like she was doing somersaults. It was cute. She's a mover! We got some awesome pictures! Afterwards, we met with doctor Olmstead and she said that everything looked great, and we have a normal healthy baby which was music to our ears! That's all we wanted and been praying to hear. She didn't even look at the gender because she didn't want to accidentally spoil it for us. Her prediction was boy.
I then drove to Lauren's to drop off the envelope. I couldn't even text her all day because I would try and read signals based off how she was communicating haha. FINALLY 5:00pm rolled around we ate dinner and got to Lauren's to start the reveal. We had all our awesome family on the Hangouts with us. It was great to feel that love and support from so many-very special. I started to cut the cake and I felt like my hand was shaking I was so nervous. Sure enough pink frosting! I was soooooo happy! I really wanted a girl for so many reasons. Plus Ty and I don't have to fight over a boys name now which is good ;)
