Gender Reveal: It's a ......

in #life8 years ago

This past week my family and I went to have an ultrasound done with find out the gender of our little baby. I was dying to find out what we are having. The excitement was killing me.

I had a great support group that came with me to the ultrasound. But my mother-in-law also came. And don't get me wrong I do love the woman but she is sometimes so unbearable to be around and does not think before she speaks.

So, of course the moment she walks in the door for the appointment, she starts rubbing my belly and states "Oh look at your BIG belly". With my husband, mother and other family and friends present, I tried not to pay her much attention.

She also walks in with her arms full, carrying two stuffed animals and a baby blanket. After she gives them to me she informs me that they were in storage and had been chewed and curled on by mice. Oh, and that she hadn't washed any of it yet.....15W_9.JPG

After a short wait we were all called back into the ultrasound room. It was such a great feeling to see my baby and hear their heartbeat. She found our baby's gender quite fast. I knew right away before she even told us. It's a boy!

Congratulations!! I'm so excited for you, I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy and a healthy baby. I haven't had the pleasure of having any children of my own; however, I would love to have a little man first as well. Did you guys pick out any names for him yet?

Thank you! And no we haven't been able to agree on a name lol I have a short last name so I would like a little bit of a long first name for my son. And of course my husband just likes short and simple names haha

LoL...good luck compromising on a precious name for you newbie! I learned quite a few lessons about compromise this weekend...more times than not when we effectively communicate with each other, we form a stronger bond together. I definitely wish you and your family the happiest of times with your new lil' man and new journey through this life.

Congratulations to you and your husband. What a magical moment this was for you! Little boys are so lovely and cuddly. I've had a boy for my first child and I would be more than happy to have 5 more of him!! Haha. They're great. So happy for you :)
