On Wednesday afternoon (last week) we had our ultrasound, and found out we are having a boy. Although we got a little lost (yes, I have been there before, but it was my fault for thinking we were taking a short cut), and were a little late (also the last appt of the day), we really enjoyed seeing our little bub on screen. It seemed that the technician was in no rush, so we felt like we saw heaps of the baby, and this time around had a much better idea of what we were looking at! I have an appointment with my midwife this Friday, but it seemed that everything is as it should be. I tried to remember some of the measurements that came up on the screen to search on the internet for how big the baby might be growing, and if I remembered them correctly we are right on track with the 50th percentile. We couldn't get a profile shot of the baby's face as it didn't want to move from its comfy position, but we did see it kicking and moving around.
So we are thinking about names now, which is hard but makes for fun conversation! Daniel has no idea and probably won't right up til the baby is born. He can point to my belly if asked where the baby is, but that's about it hehe.
I did find out recently that my due date is one of THE busiest time for the olympics/paralympics which is one block from our place, so maybe we'll be calling the ambulance just to get through all the road blocks! I'm really excited that Mum's plane tickets for March are booked too :)
