The ultrasound shows that our child is going to be........................
a GIRL!!!!!!

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!

13 oz. 152 beats per minute (right at normal) My wife's weight gain is absolutely on par everything looks excellent (knock on wood)and the tech and the Doctor both said she is going to be a CUTIE!!!

My office "baby guru" doesn't beleive it she hasn't been wrong in 16 years and she just relayed several instances of her disagreeing with Doctors and she was right in the end-including with her son. Oh well.

GIRLZROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. My best friend had never been wrong either...
But her sister had a boy anyway. Congrats on the girl. Do you have any other children, or is this the first? I don't remember. Good luck. Is Josephine still gonna be her name? I think that is so cute.

10. That's what I said "You are contractually obligated to say that"
The Doctor said "No we can tell from the structure of the face and distance between the eyes.....etc"

Really?

She said oh yeah it is basically a law of averages thing and that there have been several times that she has left the room and the tech and her grimace at each other and shake their heads and sure enough ugly babies (I know I know there are no ugly babies...right?).

16. My son came out looking like a doll
although he did have a mullet and sideburns when he was born before he lost them in the following months... I told him that he was born in the wrong decade.

But after seeing the ultrasound (those funny looking eyes) I was afraid my son was going to be looking like an alien! Not sure if those ultrasound pictures are agood thing or bad thing

20. Congratulations on your baby girl!
Edited on Thu Mar-17-05 09:31 AM by CottonBear
I have a stepdaughter. Be warned: a little girl will have you wrapped around her little finger! You will have no choice but to obey her! Daddy, I need another Barbie, Daddy, I need to go shopping at the mall, Daddy, can I have another doughnut... Get ready to spend money when she's a teenager!

Remember the Ugly Baby episode of Seinfeld? A friend of mine played the ugly baby's mom. LOL!

We'll see about the "wrapped around her finger part" I had some really good chewing outs worked up if it was going to be a boy.....I can't let them go completely to waste.

32. That is wonderful!
My first and third are girls and they are delightful. So happy to hear that everything is going well. My first one was actually due July 31st, as well, but came nine days early.


PS: Are you moving out my way, by chance?

Easier commute and there is no damned way I am going to regularly pay to drive on a state road.

Thanks.

38. Oh, that's right,
I forgot you had said a while back that you work in the city. I rarely go into the city anymore. My eldest used to take acting classes there and she performed at Theatre IV, and that toll does take a chunk of change.

33. GIRLS ARE AWESOME!!!!!
When I opened your post, I said "YAY!" out loud and I never do that!

Congratulations. Girls are the BEST (nothing against boys, mind you).

When we found out we were having a girl, Mr. Bouncy went around with this big dazed ear-to-ear grin for the next 48 hours. He even told STRANGERS we were having a girl. He wanted a girl and was thrilled to no end.

40. Oh Mr. Bouncy says to watch out when she's older
and she comes up to you batting her eyes and hugging you around the neck and saying "You're the best daddy in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD."

Just get out your wallet.

Just kidding. Well, not really.

CONGRATS, again!

51. I'd be inclined to believe the ultrasound...
over the office baby guru. ;)

Of course, ultrasound isn't 100% accurate either, but if you see certain distinct, specific things, then it's probably right.

We didn't find out in advance with our kids, though, so what do I know?

Congrats!

52. That is such great news, Underpants!
Your daughter can ask for no greater joy than to be accepted for the lovely person that she is! My parents wanted me to be a boy, and I suffered for many years because of that. I nearly did the same thing to my own beautiful girls until I realized that I was about to burden them the same way. I recovered in time, and my two girls are strong, smart and competent young women. I am also those things now, but it has taken years and my husband's help to get there! Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS to all of you! And good luck with the move, BTW!
