Girl or Boy?
I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately about whether or not we’ll be finding out the sex of the baby. The answer is a big fat YES! Brian and I are such planners, and I am impatient so we didn’t even have to think twice about the answer to that question! We don’t have a scheduled ultrasound yet but it will most likely be during our regular appointment in late December. However, I have to be careful not get my hopes up too much because I am very aware that the baby could be difficult and not flash us during the ultrasound! There’s been lots of stories about that happening at my new favorite online community babycenter.com. I’m in an April 2009 birth club so it’s fun to connect with other women experiencing the same crazy things that I am! Not knowing thus far has been a blessing on our bank account – once we know the sex, it’ll be hard to hold back!
As far as preference goes, it doesn’t really matter to us. If we are blessed to have two children, each of a different sex, I guess we’d want a boy first – but we have no idea of knowing what’s going to happen after this one. We have been calling it a boy, but for no reason other than it just comes out easier for some reason. I am visiting my friend Nicole this weekend who feels that she’ll be able to tell the sex based on how I’m carrying. While I don’t have much of a belly yet, perhaps she’ll be able to tell! Anyone want to make a bet as to what it is?
