A boy! We're pumped. Both Mike and I were thinking it was a boy the whole time. I guess parent's intuition is already kicking in! The ultrasound went well..minus the uberly full bladder. I really thought I was going to explode before I even got in there. And even the nurse commented, "whoa, your bladder is really full." Yeah, lady--trying to follow directions. However, I thought I was going to have to hold it throughout the entire appt., but thankfully she just needed to see through the ol' bladder for a few pics. Relieving.
So..the fun begins with looking at what stuff to buy! I've been trying to be patient to find out what we have before we went crazy with registering. I can't wait to buy all the cute clothes! Mike said our kid won't be wearing cute clothes...he'll only wear shoulder pads (football) and a diaper. Typical Mike comment. Poor kid. What will be hilarious is Mike will be the one going crazy when baby first arrives. We just witnessed this last night with Tyler and May's new baby boy, Jackson. Tyler was all over that kid. Love it. By the way..between Jackson and our son (whoa..I'm having a son. sorry..reality check), that's 2 out of 5 for their dream basketball team. I'm pretty sure those boys are going to be best friends...whether they like it or not!
The full bladder must be a genetic thing :) I had to have an ultrasound done last January (I had a cyst), and they told me to drink lots of fluid, so I did. I didn't feel like I was going to explode, though, but the nurse commented on how full my bladder was. I was surprised, though. I thought I hadn't had enough to drink because I didn't feel like I was about to burst. Anway, TMI, probably :)
