Belly and Ultrasound Pictures

Here are some of the latest pictures. These aren't the greatest of me, but they give a good idea of my growing belly. I have been wearing my maternity pants for some time now, they are pretty comfortable... I might just stay in them after the baby is born. :) This past week I decided it was time to start wearing my maternity tops. The dresses I bought are still too big, they will have to wait a few more weeks.

**Caution: If you don't want to know the sex of the baby, stop reading :) **

We had our second ultrasound this morning. It was exciting to get to see our little one again. Here are some of the images we saw.

Our little one was quite the gymnast this morning, moving all over the place and completely turning around during the ultrasound. It made it difficult for the doctor to find all of the things she was looking for, and to get any good pictures. Our baby is measuring just fine, and everything looks healthy. Such a relief.

We were afraid that we weren't going to find out the sex today, because the baby was moving so much, but just as our doctor was about to give up, the baby cooperated. The doctor is 85% sure that we are going to have a boy. We have another ultrasound scheduled for November 25 to double check. So it is nice to have a good idea, but we will still wait to make any big purchases until we have some confirmation.

Brandon is very excited to be having a boy...as are both of the grandfathers to be. My dad's face was pretty cool to watch as we were talking about it. I am excited too, although I would have been happy either way.

Well I better get going, here are a couple more pictures from the ultrasound. Enjoy!

And we are having...to wait

OK, so the doctor's office called me yesterday to tell me that my doctor had to be out of the office this afternoon and we had to reschedule our appointment for Saturday morning. However, I left my phone at school last night, and didn't get the message until I got to school this morning.

So I was very disappointed that we have to wait a couple more days. However, we will get to see our little one again and that will make everything ok. :)

Hopefully we our baby isn't shy, and we will be able to tell on Saturday whether we are having a little boy or a little girl. It will be nice to be able to start planning a little more in detail.

I have started to feel the baby moving around and kicking. It is a really cool feeling, although I feel bad for Brandon, because our little one isn't strong enough yet to be able to feel from the outside...I am sure that it won't be too long before this happens.

So until Saturday...we wait.
