On 31st of December, David and I had our first ultrasound since the implantation. We were excited to see how the baby has grown and to hopefully find out what the sex of the baby was going to be. As soon as we saw the baby on the screen, we both were completely amazed. The last time we saw the baby, the baby was in its yolk sac. So there was no form of a baby grown yet. This time, we saw our baby for which seemed like the first time. The best part was watching the baby stretch and move around. Unfortunately I couldn't feel anything, however our hearts just grew with all this love. The other best part was finding out that we are having a baby GIRL!!!!! The technician checked at 4 different times. This was due to the positioning of the baby, because she wasn't really cooperating. However, by the end of the ultrasound, the technician was pretty sure that we were having a girl showing and describing her on the screen. We received pictures of her and one of the pictures is in 3D, which is in color verses and black and white image.
Now the planning begins. David has started looking at cribs and there has been some talk of names, however we have a difficult time agreeing on names that we both like. I'm not worried. I now we will find a name that will be perfect for her. On Saturday night I was lying on the couch resting my hand on the side of my belly and out of no where I felt a movement across my hand. I couldn't feel anything inside, only on my hand. I can't even describe the feeling I had at that moment. But I feel more connected than ever to our baby. I can't wait for her arrival, to see what she looks like, and the personality to come. I am overcome with joy and excitement. My next visit to the doctor is on the 17th of January.
