I can't believe my intuition was right. I was 95% sure our babe was a girl (left 5% for doubt) deep down I always felt girl. Our 19 week ultrasound was a long one. I thought we were going to have to go back in a week or so to see her precious little face. She had her head tucked deep down into my pelvis, so we couldn't see what she looked like for about the first 25 minutes.
I think the ultrasound tech thought I was weird for wanting to know the gender right away. She kept asking me if I was sure I didn't want her to put it in an envelope. She probably doesn't get that very often, anymore. I wanted to see it on the big screen, and find out the old fashion way (even though flat screens aren't very old fashion). She measured all aspects of baby, and then saved the best for last... She zoomed in on our baby's little legs, bum, and "other parts" and asked us if we had any guesses. I've seen so many gender ultrasounds on my pregnancy apps lately that I immediately knew it was a girl. I began to ugly cry, Kim K style, and said "it's a girl!" I looked over at Travis and his eyes were filled with tears. Those could be scared tears or happy tears, you'll have to ask him (lol!). I think I'll find out the gender of our future babies the same way. It was for sure a special moment that I'm glad we got to share with only each other (+ my mom) it was very private and very precious, and I will cherish that moment forever.
We are completely grateful for a healthy baby girl and can not wait to spoil her rotten.
