Another boy?? Oh BOy!
Its 2pm and its a rainy afternoon and I should be down for a nap together with Seth but I am not. I know I am going to regret staying up to post this but my urge to talk about it is overtaking my present threshold of sanity within me.
We went to OBGYN yesterday to see 15 week old baby. We were told that it might be way too early but if we are lucky enough, we might be able to walk out of there knowing if its going to be a boy or girl. Firstly, its butt was in our face and we were told that its facing inwards. The Doc pointed the essential parts like the arms, the beating heart etc and then he moved to the bottom of things; right between the legs. I was holding my breath and was praying for him to tell me, "There it is!! The 3 lines indicating that u are going to have a girl!!" but instead I saw this really OBVIOUS white tip "arrowhead" between the legs! I, infact, was the first one to point out the obvious and even though, the Doc thought that I was right, he refused to validate it stating that its still early but it did give us a 70% chance of it being true.
So sigh.. no fun girly shopping for me!!! We went to Old Navy last night and they were having a further 50% off on their baby/toddler clearance stuff and I was disgusted and disappointed that they were mostly girls stuff. I was shooting Mark my "dagger eyes" the whole entire day and blaming him! HAHAHA!
The funny thing was the first thought that came to my mind after I saw the obvious was, "Shoot!! Looks like I will have to go thru morning sickness again for the 3rd time!!" And even then, its a 50/50 chance. All I know is that Mark better do his job RIGHT the next time and GIVE ME A GIRL!!!!
Pressure!
Everything aside, I know I will love this child the same as I love Seth and might eventually be thankful that its a boy because I know that Seth will enjoy his playmate alot more and today, I am actually in a place of acceptance.
We will have a more detailed visit with my specialist on Oct 2nd and I am holding out on the 30% chance of a miracle! LOL... update ya'll more on that!
