So I am now 13 weeks and feeling great! We went to have an ultrasound done yesterday to test for Down Syndrome and something else (can't remember). Here are some photos we were able to get.
Here "it" is stretching out. It's a bad picture, but we thought it was funny how "it" was totally stretching
Here "it" is facing downward
Stretching "it's" leg and bringing hand towards mouth
And, "it's" profile
So far, everyone is saying it will be a boy, but this is mostly because everyone either WANTS it to be a boy or thinks because we already have a girl, it has to be a boy this time. Here's what I think:
Mother knows best! It is still VERY much up in the air what it will be. It can honestly be either! And here's my thoughts on why:
*From the beginning, this pregnancy has been exactly the same so far. This could mean one of two things: A: it's another girl; B: I'm just really lucky!
*Sometimes I think I'm not lucky enough to have another girl, but then, just by thinking that makes me think I could be. I know, sounds like an oxymoron, but it makes sense to me.
*The heart rate is the same as Izzy's was in the womb.
*According to the Chinese calender predictor, it's a boy or a girl depending on the exact conception date. I'm not going to lie, I have no idea the exact date when I ovulate, so I had to do it with two different dates and because of that, I got two different answers. With Izzy, it was right saying it was a girl. So this time around, it's not helpful.
*I had 3 dreams when pregnant with Izzy and all three were about a girl. I never had any about a boy. My mother also had dreams when she was pregnant, but most significantly was when she was pregnant with her first. In her dream she saw and older girl and two younger boys. She then thought she would have a girl first and then two boys. It was actually the other way around and her dream was this: I was the girl, but because I was coming last, I was up in heaven handing down two boys first. SO, with that said, my dreams with Izzy could have meant one of two things: A: It was indicating 3 times that I was going to be having a girl; or B: It was like my moms and it was indicating that I will have 3 girls! Because only one dream I had with Izzy I can for certain verify that it was Izzy in my dream. The other two I have no idea.
*So far with this pregnancy I have only had one dream. It was a baby shower decorated in Pink and Purple.
With all that, I have no idea what we are having and to be honest, I don't care what anyone else dreams, thinks, invisions or has a feeling for what it is. Cause like I said, mom knows best and it can really go either way.
So, one more month till we know what we are having! We go in November 10Th. Which kinda sucks because it's on a Wednesday and we want to reveal what it is to everyone the same way we did with Izzy. The fancy cake way! However, we have church that night and would have to wait till Thursday night, but I don't know if we could hold it in that long! I guess we will have to. Or we'll have to have the technician right it down on a piece of paper and stick it in an envelope and Bud and I will open it before I make the cake. We will see.
