My ultrasound on September 2nd was amazing. The last time we saw the baby was at the first appointment in June and even though I'm getting bigger and can feel her (I love that we know she's a she/her now instead of an it or just baby), anyways, even though I know she's getting bigger, to actually see her on the screen was incredibly cool.
We saw her cute little hands and feet, the 4 chambers of her heart, her brain, limbs and face. I couldn't tell what everything was, but to have 45 minutes of just seeing the baby was a great start to a long weekend.
We didn't want the ultrasound technician to tell us in the appointment what the sex was, so she printed out a picture and put the gender on it and stuck it in an envelope for us. After the appointment we went across the street to Millennium Park and went and stood near the bean. Damon let me open it up and we were both shocked that it said girl. So many people guessed boy that I think we both just assumed it was a boy.
We're incredibly thrilled that our baby girl will be joining us in about 4 or so months and I, for one, am super excited to go shopping for her.
Here's a picture of our sweet little girl at 20 weeks, she's waving at us.
