What do men know about being pregnant?

We will be having a Niece!

So I was wrong about my theory. Meredith and Roger found out yesterday that they are having a girl! We are so excited for them. Jason and I also just realized that we are going to be become an Aunt & Uncle just 2 weeks (depending on how close we are to our due dates) before we become parents! Crazy. I am so glad that my Mom will be out here for both events.
Still no kicks- although I am about to take my first bath to see if that urges anything. I hear that it does.
Thanks to all for your kind wishes!
Much love!

Ultrasound

We had our big ultrasound today and it was so cool. I continue to be amazed when I look at the screen and can see our baby doing flips and waving (yes, he actually appeared to wave at us!)
I continue to refer to him as 'he', but we have no idea. The dct. ask us if we wanted to find out and we both said no, so she made us look away for a moment while she did that part of the scan. At the end she asked us again... "are you SURE you don't want to know the sex- this is your last chance...?". It was sort of hard to resist, but we are both excited to be surprised.
The good news is that she said our baby has a perfect looking spine, the heart looks healthy, we could see all five fingers on the hands, the top view of the brain looks good... she said overall it appears we have a very healthy baby! She said I should be able to feel the kicking any day now. Woo hoo! For some reason I can't wait for that part, although I am sure once he is actively kicking away I may think differently.
I came home and called to find out the results of the 2nd blood test I had last week which was screening for neural tube defects and the test was negative- which is good.
So- so far so good!
