Ultrasound Day

If the pink ticker below doesn't give it away... we're having a GIRL! It was very exciting to find out! I guess my intuition was correct, I really believed it was a girl since we found out I was pregnant.

Well to say the least Jeromey and I were both overwhelmed with emotions on this day. It was almost as if the reality of actually having the baby set right in, not that it didn't before, but this experience today made it that much more real.
We went to a place called XDI Ultrasound (http://xdiultrasound.com/). Everything checked out ok, 10 fingers and 10 toes. Her heart beat was strong at 160 beats/minute. The technician took all sorts of measurements and we were on our way out with a ton of pictures, DVD, VHS, and CD-ROM of the whole 45 minute appointment captured. Quite amazing.

It started out as a regular Ultrasound, but after he told us the sex of the baby, and was done taking all sorts of important measurements and making notes, we switched to 3D and 4D and could see the baby's face. We were told she was wide awake and we saw her swallow fluid, move around, kick and even yawn. My due date got moved to December 15th as well. Less than 20 weeks to go and we can't wait to meet her!

Here is a 4D picture of the face and another B&W one
