Today we went for our level II ultrasound. At this visit, the ultrasound tech measured all kinds of things. She measured body parts, amniotic fluid levels, and we even got to see if you were a boy or a girl. The ultrasound required that I have a full bladder. That is probably one of the meanest thing they could do to a pregnant woman. Tell her to have a full bladder and then push on her belly. Luckily after a few pictures, she let me go to the bathroom.
So after a while, she told us that she was 80% sure that you were a boy because they never can give you a 100% guarantee either way. There was no denying it in my eyes because we were able to see the family jewels between your legs. The rest of the ultrasound went ok. She put a lot of pressure on my belly in order to get what she needed. However, towards the end of the ultrasound, you turned your face away from her and put your head downwards. She pushed and pushed but could not get you to turn so she could get a good picture.
She had me walk around the room for about 10 minutes while she went to talk to the radiology doctor to see what he wanted to do. The room was maybe 6 feet wide and it got boring real quickly walking back and forth. Eventually the tech and the doctor came in the room. The doctor looked for himself and couldn't get a good picture of your heart, so he is going to suggest to my OB to have me come back for a follow up visit in about 4-6 weeks in order to look at your heart. He said not to worry because everything looked fine. They just want to make sure.
Overall, it was a great visit. Your dad got to see the entire show, but I was only able to see you for about a minute because of the way the screen was turned. However, the little bit I saw was absolutely amazing. I am so in love with you and can't wait to see you in real life.
I will always love you,
Your Mommy
Here are a few pics that they gave us today:
This is a profile picture and it looks to me like you are trying to play peek-a-boo because you brought your hands up to your face.
Here you are showing us your tickets to the gun show.
The next two pictures are of your legs.
Last but not least, the family jewels shot!
