Scan day today, and as is usual with any child of mine, they are difficult to get them where you want, when you want. With #2 she decided to pull a 180 halfway through the scan while the sonographer had his back turned to measure something... this one decided it didnt know which way it wanted to lie, so wriggled like a fish! Not only that but it was curled up so tightly that we couldnt get any leg shots, let alone a sneaky look at the 'nub shot' to try and get a heads up on what gender we might be looking at. The good news is I have caught back up on dates and then some, 12 weeks 5 days by my dates, 12 and 2 by the last scan, todays scan put me at 13 weeks, and the other good news is the placenta is posterior (towards my back) which I never had with #1 or #2, so i might get to see more defined movement, instead of just the big rolling over moves.
For now I'm thinking boy, but will have to wait another 6-7 weeks to know for sure! And on that note, I am thinking while we will be finding out the gender, we may not be revealing to the general public (save for a few selected friends) until the day baby arrives (which also will not be revealed, only to those necessary as we will need a babysitter the night before!) I had nothing left to announce except time of arrival and weight when #2 arrived, as gender was announced at 19 weeks, and name shortly after, and date was decided about a month or 2 before she arrived, leaving the day somewhat anti-climactic. As there are followers on this blog, I will not be posting it on here, nor will I mention the gender or baby by name on any other forums I post on. Since this is our last, I want to enjoy the little things I missed out on with #1 and #2.
Well its late, and not much else to do but post a photo, so heres baby #3
