Melissa went in to the doctor again Friday. Again, our child was being uncooperative and stubborn (this better end SOON!). Throughout the ultrasound exam, the nurse was doing her best to determine the gender of our baby. It seemed hopeless as the baby was sitting on its feet...not the best position for determining if there is anything between the baby's legs or not.
After taking the measurements she needed, the nurse poked around for a couple extra minutes. Just as she was about to give up, she let out an "ohhh!". She then starting showing us the following on the screen. "Here's a leg, and here's another. And between them, there is nothing to be seen. I think you are having a girl." The nurse initially told us she was 80% sure we were having a girl.
After some more investigating, the nurse strengthened her stance, since she couldn't see "a little turtle with its head poking out" as would be seen if the baby was a boy. As we left, she went out on a limb and said she was "quite sure" we were having a girl.
This means two things...first, we have to pick out a name (since we only had boy's names picked out so far!) and second, let the shopping begin (I can imagine the new grandma's did not have to wait to hear this!!)
