Yes, today was the "big" ultrasound -our shot to find out if Baby B is a he or a she. And so, for those waiting anxiously with baited breath - Baby B is a...baby!Yes, that's right. Baby B hid the goods. The ultrasound technician did his best, but could not give us a definitive answer as to if we are having a boy or girl. He kept saying "I don't see any boy parts." and told us that he "thinks" it is "probably" a girl, but that was about as far as he was willing to go. Sooooo frustrating! I even drank 15 ounces of OJ prior to the ultrasound based on other women's advice that it would help baby be active. Well, baby was active, but did still would not give us really good look a the "key" parts.
On a bright note, Baby B looked perfect - they measured all the parts of the brain, looked at the heart, measured the stomach, saw working kidneys, measured the arms and legs, checked the umbilical cord - it all looked just perfect. Baby is weighing in at a hearty10 ounces and looks fabulous.
So, for now, we will be calling Baby B a "she," although it is rather tentative. As the ultrasound technician suggested, we can buy girl's baby clothes but should keep the receipts :-)
