little man!! That gives me a big 0-3 record for guessing the gender of all my babies! Although, lately I was starting to feel more like he was a boy--I don't know why.
Anyway, we're super excited, and I'll have to try to take pictures of the ultrasound prints to post. Everything looks totally perfect with this little one, so we're very relieved and happy, of course. He was very squirmy during the whole thing, so it was kind of nice to show Jared what's going on in there pretty much 24/7. He couldn't believe he was moving so much and the poor technician was really working hard to get decent pictures and measurements. She confirmed that his head is really tucked low and deep down into my netherparts, so no wonder things get a little uncomfortable to say the least.
It was an amazing reminder of the miracle of all of this, and I have been quite emotional about it, and I promise it's not sadness that it's a boy. I think it is quite a mix of things, probably a large dose of hormones, too, but anyway, it is just a lot to take in!
Oh, and they could see that the placenta is attached at the back of the uterus, so it is not anywhere near the C-section scar from before, so that is good. I guess it can also mean that you will feel the baby a lot more, which I definitely have been, so that's kind of fun.
So, that's the happy news! Yay! And, hooray that I'm half-way there!

YAY!!! I thought you would have a boy and Emily would have a girl, so at least I got one right. Congrats! I don't know one person who is expecting a girl right now. Isn't it funny how it goes in cycles like that. Any names?
Congratulations! We are so excited for you.
congrats! glad everything is going well and he is healthy and active! although, once he starts running out of room, that will get annoying! :) at least it did for me.
