My Husband and I found out today we are expecting our first baby BOY!!! We couldn't wait until the normal 20 week ultrasound that our OB gives, so we chose to go to Fetal Fotos for an early gender scan! We walked in and it was very peaceful in the office. The staff was so sweet to us from the word go.. (we had both my parents there to witness the u/s) which can be a lot when your crammed into a room trying to get pictures of a baby! Lisa our u/s tech was so caring and took her time to really explain what everything was that we were looking at. First she wanted to get a really good profile of our baby for us. Of course Jus and I wanted to know the sex right away, but she took her time which we actually valued because we enjoyed the u/s more!
This is the profile shot she was able to take of our baby! He was so squirmy and moved so much! it was incredible to see because the last time we saw our lil jelly bean he was 7 weeks along and didnt move at all! As she worked to get his hearbeat I saw a peak at his lil parts and i knew INSTANTLY he was a boy! I kept quiet though because i didnt want to get daddies hopes up and be wrong! I let Lisa ask Jus and my parents if they were ready to know what we were having! Of course they all were like YES! TELL US! and she asked me if i knew and i said ohhh yea, i saw the boy parts a little earlier! She laughed and agreed and said, "THIS IS ALL BOY FOR SURE!" at that point jus was laughing with excitement because ever since he was old enough to contemplate babies of his own he's always wanted to have a son to play baseball with and im so thankful we could create that for him!
We were also able to count his little toes which is amazing to me because he is only about 5 inches from head to bummy right now so those toes have to be VERY TINY.. but they were so defined and all 5 were there on the foot we could see :) I am starting to grow everyday and i love it so much! I havent been able to feel the baby very much.. (if i am even feeling him at all) I actually just guess im feeling him but i never know if its gas.. haha I found out today i have an anterior placenta which means it sits in between the baby and me.. it might make feeling his kicks hard and i might have to wait longer to feel them regularly! that is a bummer but we have a home doppler and that makes it so much easier when you get worried in between doctor visits! :)
This is my 15+4 Week Belly!
All in all my life is so beautiful right now! I couldnt ask for a more supportive husband or family! my parents have been through this pregnancy right by my side and without them i dont know what i would have done this summer with jus gone for baseball for some time. I am so excited to have the baby shower and decorate the nursery! Its going to be a battle though because jus is SET on baseball and i am SO artsy i want to do something vintage and fun! haha but a dad and his boy is something that i marvle at.. he makes me a better person, and for that, this baby is going to be so loved and taken care of! It seems like yesterday i had a sorta pink line on that pregnancy test, and now to know we created a baby BOY together, it blows my mind! At times in a person life, you reflect on the joys around you.. my joys are so simple but so meaningful and the very same time. I have a husband who i adore, and who treats me so beautiful every single day. I have a mom and dad who would do anything to see me happy and healthy. A brother and sister in law who make me smile just thinking about them. A brother in law who cares about his family more than he does himself. A mother in law that most arent lucky enough to enjoy. Amazing and loyal friends who have stood by me and jus through this whole marriage and pregnancy. And last but CERTAINLY not least... A son, a beautiful, growing, SON!!!!!! <3 Im thankful for what i have and whats to come!
