I had my 20wk ultrasound today at 1! I got off work and 5 minutes in to my drive home my phone rang. It was my Doctors office. They needed to reschedule due to an emergency and asked if I could come in at 4. Grr! I was pretty bummed, but at least I was able to get in today.
Just when I was getting off the hwy they called and asked if I could come in at 330. Of course! Silly question. Those few hours seemed to take FOREVER!
We of course got taken back and got asked basic questions then asked if we wanted to know the gender. The baby's head is high up, towards my left side and bottom down towards my right. The legs were closed but she kinda got a peek, asked if we wanted a boy? She wasn't 100% since the legs were closed. She looked around and then went back, the baby quickly opened the legs and she said,
"It's a boy!"
Yay! I knew it was a boy. I had a feeling the whole time. I wanted a girl, heck, we all wanted a girl, but when she said boy I felt a sense of relief and felt so much better. Landon was sad, He buried his head in Greg's chest. Then we got to see the face head on, and we teased it looked like an alien, then we heard the heartbeat. A strong 150bpm, like a galloping horse. We teased Landon the baby was a horse/alien. He kinda cheered up, then the baby started waving his hands and Landon came around. She did all her measurements and pointed out all the organs, head, heart, genitals, feet and hands. We were back there a good 40 minutes. As soon as I stood up I had an instant headache! I didn't realize how tense and uptight I was!
We promised Landon would could go get a new little toy or something since he was so good. We went to Walmart, their shelves were bare, then to Kmart, theirs were bare too, then we finally went to base and he got something there. We grabbed a bite to eat and finally got home around 6! It was a long day, but all worth it in the end!
I can't believe we are having another boy, we are all so happy. I have a few pictures that I need to scan or take picture of, I am SO tired I just can't muster the strength to do it right now. Sorry!
SO now I am searching for boy things and bedding and stuff and we have already tossed around some names, I think we may have a first name, but not saying anything yet, it's SO early still. I'll definitely keep you all posted!
