It's a.....
GIRL!!!
Long story, but this little girl is very very active. No worries about her being asleep for the ultrasound; instead, she moved so much we only got one clear printed photo of . . . her little profile. I made the doctor try for a second time for this after we were about to walk out the door with no pictures in hand, so I was grateful she cooperated for a few seconds. Before that, the doctor saw everything else he wanted, while I just laid there and thought, "That's a knee? Okay. That's an arm. Um . . . sure" and tried not to feel stupid for not making anything out. So much for seeing a nice spread-eagle shot of the anticipated diaper area either. We had to take the doctor's word for it that the three dots (black, white, black) meant it was a girl and there were definitely "no signs of boy parts," as he put it. But Brian and I did make out her cute feet and toes, her spine, stomach, heart, and ribs.
Brian was completely enthralled by his little girl's heartbeat. His face was rather priceless during the whole exam. And yes, he is rather pleased to have guessed right. :) Just as I thought. He is wrapped around her little finger already. He rolled over this morning and woke me up by saying, one more time, "It's a girl!"
Everything looks healthy, and again, she is very active. She has been rolling around all day today. She really likes cheese and tangerines so far. Our due date of June 19th is exactly on target as well, so no worries there. Horrah for little girls!
