We are officially having a baby boy! I still can't believe it because I had convinced myself it would be a girl. Ryan and I went to the doctor on Friday and I knew it was a boy before the tech even said anything. I practically screamed, "It's a boy!" And of course Ryan just sat back and said, "I told ya so." He always HAS to be right. We are both so excited and can't wait to meet our little guy. We love him all ready! They even moved the due date up by a couple days. So end of September/ early October we will meet our baby boy.
The ultrasound was so much fun. We got to look at all our baby's parts for about 30 minutes. He was so cute kicking his LONG legs and having the hiccups. The tech said that his legs are 30% longer than most babies at 20 weeks so he is definitely Ryan's boy. The only thing that isn't "normal" is they saw a black hole which they think is his gallbladder but they don't usually see that on an ultrasound so they aren't completely sure what it is. They told us not to worry and that it isn't anything serious. I sure hope it stays in the not serious category. They will check up on it at about 32 weeks just to make sure. Other than that baby boy is healthy and happy wiggling around in my belly. I love feeling him move and I feel him all the time now. I even saw my belly move when he kicked the other morning. His movements are full on kicks now and not just flutters. Makes sense with his extra long legs! Well here are some pictures of our boy!
This is the "It's a boy" pic. His little boy part may look strange but it is just the cord. He is perfectly normal :)
The tech tried so hard to get us a good 3D pic but he was so wiggly she had to chase him around which distorted the picture. But this one is pretty good. His little hand touching his face is so adorable. I love it.
And here is our baby's face. A little like a skeleton but I can tell he is cute!
Ryan was my waiting buddy. We were there for over an hour! And waited lots. He was a champ and loved seeing our baby. He asked the tech so many questions about him the entire ultrasound. He is thrilled to have a son!
Finally, here I am at 20 weeks! I love being pregnant and looking pregnant. Its getting harder to find things to wear so I may need to buy some maternity clothes soon. I can't help but touch my belly all the time! Is that normal? I still can't believe I am actually prego and that I have a baby boy in there. I am looking forward to the next 20 weeks! Half way there until we get to meet our boy!
