My Baby!! Posted: 04-09-06 19:30pm
So wednesday I went for my level 2
ultrasound. It was soo long since i'd
have an ultrasound done that I was so
incredibly excited.
I wanted to find out the sex of my baby
when my boyfriend and I went, so of
course, I had heard that if you have sugar
beforehand - it would make it easier to
tell the sex of the baby. About a whole
pack of starburst later, we finally got to
go into the exam room. Well, a word of
advice *don't eat a whole pack of
starbursts before having an ultrasound*
my gosh. My little peanut would not stay
still. But we did eventually find out
the sex. It's a little boy!! I'm so
excited. Everything was healthy and
growing properly and in great working
condition. I know my boyfriend was
disappointed in not having a little girl
but i'm sure he'll love our son just as
much, if not more, if it had been a little
girl.
I just wanted to update you ladies to let
you know all is well.

Yay!!!!! That's great, hun! I just found
out i'm having a boy, too, but my bf is
thrilled to death... He wanted a boy.
I know your guy will not be able to resist
loving the little man just as much.
Hehe.
I didn't have to "too much sugar" problem;
I had the "not enough water" problem cause
nobody told me to drink a lot before the
u/s. :p

Congrats on the baby boy skoot. Yay!!
I know what you mean about the too much
sugar. I was having an ultrasound done
and I had a cup of coffee before I went
and she wouldn't sit still. We have been
checking her heart for defects because of
my first baby and his defect. So she
stayed still for like 10 mins of the u/s
but then she woulnt stop moving and it
made it very hard for the tech to get the
rest of the readings. It was soo funny.
She is a doll and I can't wait for her to
be here. Awww......
Again congrats.

Aren't they just the cutest things when
they wiggle and jerk around like that in
there? When I went for my 20 wk u/s, the
tech was trying to take a pic of his face
for me. No lie, he kept flinging his arm
in front of his face when the tech went to
take the pictures! It was so funny! It
was like he was saying, no! I don't want
my picture taken! She did finally get a
good shot, though. :lol:

Congrats sarah! I know we are due on the
same day so I check your posts to see how
you are doing. We had an ultrasound a
couple of weeks ago and found out we are
having a girl. Yay! I am glad all is
well for you!
