The news is here!

We ended up having the ultrasound a few days early. On Monday night I had some fairly heavy bleeding. I talked to the on-call doctor. and he said to watch and if it didn't stop, to head to the ER. If it did overnight, just call and my doctor may want to move up my ultrasound to the next day (Tues.) just to be sure all was well. Kyle gave me a blessing and I felt really good about things. I had been promised in a earlier blessing that the baby was, and would be healthy. The next morning all the bleeding has stopped but after talking to the nurse, she decided to have me come in just to be sure. We went in late yesterday and had the ultrasound. Everything looked really good. The placenta is where it should be and there are no signs of separation or any other things to cause concern. There was no signs of bleeding. This was all great news, just as we expected it would be. We also got to find out the gender of this little baby!
And the result is...

Can you tell from the reaction of the kids???













It's a BOY!!!
Here is the profile of our little guy. This was very hard to get because he was pressing his face against the placenta. You can see it, it's the lighter colored blob to the left of his face, above his stomach.

It was about the most uncomfortable ultrasound ever! He was laying right on my VERY FULL bladder! Because of where his face was, the tech had a hard time getting good views at some of the things she needs to check. Then when she was trying to get a good look at the cord which they check for 3 vessels, she would just get it in view, and he would kick the cord so she would have to try all over again. At one point she was pushing with both hands. When she tried to get him to move around though so she could get better views of other things she needed to check, he was just cozy how he was and wouldn't budge. Everything looked great with the baby. We are all excited and can't wait to meet this little guy!
