Ben and I had our ultrasound on Monday. Ben's description of the ultrasound below is pretty accurate - especially the part about me putting my foot in a bucket. So, I'll spare repeating the details. The ultrasound photos below are of 'malachi'! It is healthy, has a full tummy (as you can see in the second picture - the dark blob inthe middle of his/her belly) and all the parts moved during the ultrasound. In 5 days I will be half way done with pregnancy!
Below Ben talks about the grocery store check out bagger that told me we are having a girl. I told my friend who just had a little girl and she laughed and said that the same man bagged her groceries and told her she was having a girl. I am thinking about sending all of the women in my birthing class to the grocery store to see if he always predicts girls or if he is really psychic... or... PSYCHO!
Anyhooo, I don't have a ton to report on this blog. Ben and I are buzzing from the ultrasound. It was amazing to see all of that detail and everything moved. The baby actually looked at us which was a bit creepy because it looked like an alien skeleton. It has been punching and kicking a ton these past few days. I think it will be a long second half of the pregnancy with lots of internal bruising as this giant grows. I believe it is a giant because I was a 9 lb baby, my sister was an 11 lb baby and Ben was an 11 lb baby. So, I am not expecting any mercy from this one... my sister did mention that if I wanted a smaller baby to just start smoking.
I will keep you all posted on the progress!
