The "Big" Ultrasound

So, after an entire weekend of intense and frustrating discussion, we decided to find out the sex of the baby. And today was the day! Peggy's appointment was this morning. Needless to say, going in we were quite excited, but probably a little nervous at the same time. We were totally ready to find out!

First off, let me just say that after doing all the measurements and a 20 minute ultrasound, the baby looks perfectly healthy. All the measurements were just fine. Apparently our baby has long legs! Apparently (s)he's going to be a runner!

So the doctor did all these measurements, but she knew that's not what we were there for. So then there we were, seconds away from finding out the sex. And the doctor says........(Scroll down for the sex!)...sorry, but I had to give you the same feeling that we had!

We don't know!!!!!

The stubborn baby has his/her legs crossed! DOH! So, we still don't know! Our next chance to find out is in 4 weeks....yeah, we have to wait another 4 weeks! DOH! After all that anticipation and discussion, we still don't know!

Needless to say, we were a little bummed. BUT, the baby is perfectly healthy, and that's all that really matters!

Our baby currently weighs about 14 ounces (almost a full pound now!). The due date was moved up to November 11th based on the babies measurements, so (s)he is exactly on track in terms of weight and size.

We're very excited that everything is going well, but a tad bit sad that we don't know the sex quite yet. Hopefully the baby will uncross his/her legs before our next ultrasound!
