Well, it's been a roller coaster week in our house.
Let's start with Wednesday. We found out.... WE'RE HAVING A BOY!!! HE
was super very proud to show us his junk. As I was lying on the table,
the tech did all the measurements first. Then she started looking for
gender clues. She had barely started looking when I saw IT and started
crying. Immediately. Bob was so confused. The tech said, "Aw. Mama sees
what's going on!" We clued Bob in. He cried. I kept crying. We made the
tech cry.
We both wanted a boy, but Bob was convinced it was a girl. We took all
the pictures and went to sit in the hallway to wait to see Doctor J.
While out there, we started crying again. We dried it up and went into
an exam room, where we started crying again. The Doc had seen us a
couple of times by then, and made a pretty good amount of fun of us for
crying for so long.
Here's our boy!
Saying hi to us.
A sweet little profile.
After my appointment, I went on to work that afternoon. After work, I
was in a car accident. My poor car... A lady failed to stop while
leaving a parking lot and t-boned my passenger side. We were both okay,
but I called my doc just in case. She advised me to go to the ER just
make sure the baby was okay. So 4-5 hours later, we left the ER with a
confirmation that baby boy was okay and that HE was definitely a boy.
It was so cute during that ultrasound. He was asleep. The tech kinda
pushed on my belly, and he woke up, looked around, stretched out, rolled
over, and went back to sleep. It. Was. Adorable. And I cried. Again.
Along with everything else this week, my gpa ended up in the hospital
for emergency surgery, and we also found out his brother passed away. I
wasn't close to my great uncle, but I know it's weighing heavily on my
gpa, especially since he was in the hospital and unable to attend the
funeral.
So we're hoping next week we will all be back to normal. Or as much as
normal as possible! For now, I'm working on keeping baby BOY toasty and
snuggly.
