6.29.2006 - So Is It a Boy or a Girl?
Yes, it's definitely a boy or a girl...
I've had several ultrasounds in my life (as this is my 6th child... )
and the last one was the first one we actually opted to be surprised
with. Well, actually, funny story- we had decided not to find out
the gender with the previous one, but didn't say anything up front, and
having seen several ulrasounds already (I've had more than one with
most pregnancies due to minor concerns...) when the tech was done with
the measurements, she turned to us and asked "So do you want to know if
it's a boy or girl?" and my husband and I looked at each other and back
at her and practically said in unison "it's a girl, right?" So the
moral of the story is- if you've seen your fair share of ultrasounds
and you don't want to know baby's gender, say so up front, before they
take the thigh bone measurement... So, anyway, we figured being
surprised once was enough fun for us, and we'd find out this time
around... but for the first time we had a little bugger that just
wasn't cooperating enough to get a really good look... at first glance
there was a shot that had us thinking (even the tech) boy... but then
all the other glances didn't seem to have the extra something... so our
best 'educated' guess is girl- BUT- there is a distinct possibility
that it's a boy, so the long and the short of it is- we don't know! We
really don't know! This is the first ultrasound that it hasn't
been pretty near crystal clear! Oh well, we'll take either,
right?! Here are a couple of pics... enjoy... Long feet, that comes down my side of the family...
Don't you just love those alien face shots? And check out the
fingers wrapping around the leg... the tech thought that was a cool
pic...
Nothing prominent in that gender shot... too bad she didn't capture
that first glance one that looked a little boyish... then you'd know
why it was so hard to really tell...
Check out the hand wrapping around the leg again, nothing boyish
showing up in that shot either... and this was the best profile shot
she could get as this little one was all balled up in the tuck position
(a future diver?) and never really stretched out at all... All
in all, a fun way to spend an afternoon... we brought the girls with as
I thought it would be neat for them to see the baby on the screen- they
enjoyed that... but they probably enjoyed the orange-cream smoothies we
stopped and got afterwards even more! They were so well-behaved
we got comments from the staff walking by and the coffee shop girl...
usually kids are tearing all over that place driving everyone nuts...
it was nice to get a comment like that again as my kids have gotten a
bit squirrel-y (in my opinion) as of late... and we used to get
comments all the time when we went somewhere... and, well, it was nice
to get one again... they really were being good little cuties! If
only they were like that all the time, but that's a whole 'nother
entry! I'll write that one when I get it all figured out...
(don't hold your breath!)

6.29.2006 - Those are great!!! |

I especially like the very last one. You can just see the baby so perfectly. I have one photo of my oldest son, at about 8mo on the ultrasound. He was having some trouble so they were checking him out real well. The photo of his face (that's about all it was) was so uncanny. It looks just like him! LOL.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting today. I appreciate it and am so glad when something I write means something to someone else!
Oh, but I made a mistake. My daughter told me it's 10 days on the farm eggs. :)
My kids are so smart!
Blessings,

Looks like a girl to me. =) But you really don't know for sure until birth.
Those are GREAT ultrasound pics!

6.29.2006 - Interesting.... |

How Fun! I remember going to my first ultrasound it was so exciting. We wanted to know if it was a boy or girl and they had no trouble telling us it was a boy. I think it is kind of great that you do not know. Surprises are fun! I love looking at ultrasound pictures. Wonderful to see God creation at work. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I look forward to finding out in a few months if you have a boy or girl.
Have a great weekend!

Oh I love ultrasound pictures. Thank you for sharing them. How fun to be surprised. :o) I have always been an impatient one (just ask my mom...) I would have probably kept pestering and pestering to have them look again so that I could find out.

| Ultrasound pictures just take me aback...isn't it all just truly amazing?! That must have been so exciting for your children to see...I'd say this baby wants it to be a surprise, too! |
