I'm usually out of there with plenty of time to get back and pick her up, but for some reason, they were really far behind on Tuesday. I finally got called back at 9:55 and was in the ultrasound room by 10:00. I was worried that the tech would have trouble seeing the gender again and it would take longer and make me late getting AJ (which I was anyway and they charge $1/minute you're late...highway robbery, I tell you!).
Anyway, I don't want to keep you all in suspense any longer than I already have by rambling on and on...
We found out that Baby #2 is a....
We're very excited to have a baby sister to add to the family and are furiously trying to decide on names that go well with AJ's name. AJ, however is in a state of denial, I think, because when I told her that she is going to have a baby sister she told me that she is the big sister. I agreed with her and said, yes, but the baby is a girl baby, to which she then replied that the baby is a boy baby. Haha!
Oh well, she'll understand eventually, and someday they'll be arguing over clothes, make-up and who knows what else!
As far as how I'm feeling, I am very happy, but very, very surprised because I really thought that we were having a boy this time around. I'm thrilled that we'll be able to reuse the clothing that we have saved from AJ, and also a little relieved because I know girls. I know what to expect and how to handle things like diaper changes, etc.
After it was determined that this baby is a girl, the ultrasound tech was scanning and she casually asked me if we were going to try again after this one to get a boy.
My response?
Nope, two girls is enough for me! ;)
Congrats! Two girls should be a blast!
ReplyDeleteI am so so so so excited for you!! Eeeeeek. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear what name you and the hubs select.
That is very cool there is an hourly daycare near you. I've never heard of that - but I can see where that could come in handy very often. I'd be more comfortable with that I think than having a total stranger in my home watching my (non existant) child. :) But the $1 per minute being late is insane. I feel like they should at least give you a few minutes grace period. Sheesh.
Anyway, congratulations again! :)
Yippee! Welcome to the two girls club! That's how I felt. I thought boy, but I was happy and sooo comfortable with another girl:)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I hope we have a girl in round 2 but I think I'm destined to have boys...C'est la vie
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! How exciting. I'm not gonna lie, when/if we decide to expand the fam, I would love another girl! :)
