We had our 4.5 month sonogram today, so I am about 18.5 to 19 weeks along now. Aannnddd, the main reason we went to get this was to find out the baby's sex! We were referred to Dr. Graham, MD's office, who works closely with the birthing center and the sonogram nurse told us she never tells the sex of the baby until at least 18 weeks along. Apparently the sex organs are not developed until around then and hard to tell for sure. So, she measured the baby and we saw all the measurements she took and then all of a sudden told us we were having a girl!! I asked her if she was sure, and was still in shock and still didn't feel real and she told us, she would not tell us it was a girl unless she was sure! She has learned to be as accurate as possible in telling couples the news to avoid any miscalculations of room colors, and name choices! We were so excited as I have always wanted a girl, of course would have loved to have a boy as a big brother but am so happy we are having a baby girl!
We are now starting to look at names and not sure at all what that will be. I have gotten so used to having an uncommon name that I think that will be the direction we will go. But we promise no Apples, Coco's or Zinnias! Our next check-up will be on the 6th of January.
