Well, I had my ultrasound on Monday. And our second child is already proving to be rather uncooperative. He or she decided to move the entire time, making it difficult for the technician to get the needed measurements. The technincian then tried for about a half an hour to find the goods to tell us whether we should expect a boy or a girl.....to no avail. We were eventually able to focus in on both feet, then the lower legs, then the knees...WHICH WERE TOGETHER! And they didn't come apart, at all! Scott and I were wondering if this is a sign that this will be our "fiesty" child...? But, then we realized that we don't care...as long as he or she is healthy and happy! Now, in the ultrasound picture above (the very best one the technician could give us, believe me), our little peanut is facing downward, basically lying on its nose. You can see the spinal column off to the left of the head and then a slightly darker area below that is the baby's heart. Annemarie was able to come in and see the heartbeat and fingers and toes and was actually very excited. We were given two copies of the ultrasound picture and she even took one to school to show all her friends. From what Scott and I could see, everything looks good, but we'll get a final report in the next week or two. So, we're back to having to choose a boy name and a girl name. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
