We're team....
It's a baby GIRL !!! I can't believe it! The little lady had me all fooled all this time! Talk about completely wrong maternal intuition! Haha! And the Chinese gender chart obvioudly CAN'T be trusted as it was predicting BOY for us... CJ is gloating because he was guessing GIRL all along and was clearly correct!
The ultrasound went so well which is the REAL important part in this process. We saw all her little parts, her head, brain with its perfect hemispheres and shapely cortex, little feet with tiny toes and cute hands with all those baby fingers, her strong thigh bones and spiky spine. Her heart was beating really strong, we saw all 4 chambers very clearly, all working in perfect order, and got to hear her strong heart beat.
She was measuring 3 days ahead, so at 20 weeks 6 days which is perfectly normal.
She also has a big head, which is without doubt my fault, hahaha. CJ has a perfectly proportional, cute head. My noggin is huge, and looks like she's going to have one too.
At one point we saw her stick her thumb in her mouth and suck on it. Her little cheeks and mouth were moving as she was going at it. Soooo cute... Almost made me cry. It's crazy that you can see things like that on an ultrasounds. Crazier yet to think that a 1 pound, 1 foot long baby already does tricks like this... Hopefully this means she will have no issues learning to eat once she's out.
Again she was positioned with her back up, head under my right rib. The doc said that they flip upside down and move all the time, but somehow this one is ALWAYS positioned this way when we see her, so I have my doubts.
The doc said everything looked perfect and right in the middle of all the expected parameters. We are just so happy that everything is fine. Can't wait to meet her in a few months. I'm sure she will have her Daddy wrapped around her little finger in no time.
Thank you all for voting in our poll and your guesses. Most of us (me included) were wrong. Great job those who guessed girl. It was fun to wait for the big reveal.
