Okay, we’re here and I really should have my hand slapped for not posting sooner.? I’m a bad, bad girl.? But you know how it is.? My parents don’t have a wireless router so I had to wait until I had a moment to go get on their computer. And let me say, getting used 800×600 resolution is HARD.

So the doc denied us a peek at the goods.? I KNOW.? It’s tragic!? I nearly started to cry, right there.? Seriously!? :lol? But she said that at 28/29 (I’ll be 29 weeks) it’s easier to tell and she doesn’t want to get busted for doing too many free ultrasounds.? I guess I can understand but HOW am I going to wait a WHOLE other month?? That’s just not right!!? If the ultrasound place by us wasn’t $99 for just a 10 minute 2d u/s, I’d do that in a heartbeat.? But frugality prevails.

I didn’t get a c-section?date either.? BUT.? She said we pretty much know when we want to do this.? She’s cool with doing it between 37 and 38 weeks and it sounds as if the tentative date we’ve set is for July 11th.? Which works for me, because HEY, 7/11.? :)? That’s easy to remember, right??? All in all, the appointment was sorta a bust.? I gained TWO pounds (for not having gained?any so far, this was a tragedy in and of itself).? Oh the humanity!

So that’s the results.? I’m sorry it’s not anything more exciting… believe me!? So unfair. ?

Get the word out:

So today could possibly be Gender Day Part 2.? The first Gender Day didn’t turn out so hot, what with a very stubborn little fetus who was perfectly happy to lay with his/her legs crossed.? I’m not 100% sure my doctor will let us take a look today, but I’m OH SO hoping.? Again, I don’t think I really care.? If it’s a boy, I won’t be disappointed.? If it’s a girl, I’ll be surprised. ;)? But I just want to KNOW.? Not for the name’s sake, of course, because K has told me he won’t tell me the boy’s name we have until he’s born.? MEAN.

I need to know for my registry.? I’ve been trying to fill it out, but so much is dependant on the gender that I’ve had to hold out.? And for a planner like me, that’s murder.? I want to know YESTERDAY.? Hear that, God?? I know this kid will listen to you.

Wish me luck.? I’ll try to report any results this evening.? We’ll be at my parents house, where we’re spending the holiday weekend but thank goodness they have DSL. :)? I might also know the c-section date so today could be a very informative appointment in any case.
