It's Official!! We're Having A Girl!!

Wes and I had our BIG ultrasound this morning at the Fetal Assessment Center in Harbor Hospital where we will be delivering. As you can tell from the title of this blog entry, we are definitely having a girl!!! Our appointment was at 7:45AM this morning but we finally got into the room about 8:15AM or so and overall everything went really well. She is measuring right on schedule and my due date hasn't changed a bit, so it's still July 8th. Heart, brain, organs, fingers, toes, bones, etc all look great! Her heartbeat was at 145 which they said was good and we got several more pictures to keep, including "the money shot" as we like to call it haha!

It was amazing because they checked every inch of her spine, all the way to the development of her nose and lips ha! They also pretty much measured every little thing that they could and didn't find anything out of the ordinary at all. I am still waiting for the placenta to move away from the cervix (it moved about 0.3 centimeters since our last appointment) and it has to move about 2 centimeters more to be in the clear. Nothing to be worried or concerned about at this point though because in about 90% of the cases, it moves later in the pregnancy. So all in all, it was a great appointment! We got again for a follow up appointment in about 7 more weeks, so we will get to see peanut yet again!

I am soooo excited to FINALLY know that peanut is a little girl for sure! Now we can finally get started with all the fun stuff like the nursery, registry, etc...yeah!! Although Wes is a little frightened that I may go crazy haha. How can I not?!?! Now it's off to the doctors office on Friday for our regular appointment, which is usually pretty quick so hopefully this one won't be any different. I hope everyone has a great week!
