So we went in for the anatomy scan at the doctors office at the beginning of July. We had decided ahead of time not to let on that we already knew the baby's gender and had done an in-depth screen of her anatomy. We didn't want to tell them and then maybe they kind of slack us a little on this ultrasound that insurance was actually paying for.
Beth, the ultrasound tech, asked us ahead of time "do you have a feeling on way or another? I know some moms just have that feeling in their hearts." Well yeah I did have that "feeling" before I knew so I said yes, I think it's a girl. I made sure Josh and my mother-in-law Cathy (Grace's "Omi" which is a modification of the German word Oma which means grandmother) weren't saying anything either.
The funny thing was, even though I had seen her a little under 4 weeks earlier, I still had this slight doubt "What is boy parts show up?!" In fact I was so obsessed about it I drove my mom absolutely crazy about it. "Dale said DEFINITELY! Would you just relax?" Me, relax? Calm down? Hadn't she known me from birth? Even before I got pregnant relaxing wasn't exactly something I could do on command. And now, well this was my baby we were talking about.
