Well the time is quickly coming for us to (hopefully) find out whether or not our third baby is a boy or a girl. I am just over 18 weeks along and we are ecstatic to have our post-op appointment (to check the cervix and make sure it's not being rebellious yet) and to have our first 3D ultrasound with this pregnancy. I have had two ultrasounds so far since I became pregnant, but both of them were with the old machine and gave us only a fuzzy glimpse of our little one. It is such a blessing that we have the ability to check in on the baby and to keep a close check on the status of my cervix.
Anyhow, we are really hoping that the baby is not modest and will let us get a glimpse. Baby K made us wait an extra 2 weeks or so, so we're hoping that doesn't happen again. :)
A lot of people ask us whether or not we think we are having a boy or a girl. We all three seem to have varying opinions, so here is the current status of our little family's opinions.
Malone is absolutely convinced that we are having a boy. He is so certain that he has been reluctant to discuss girl names with me. He hasn't been wrong yet either, so he has something of a reputation to uphold.
I don't really have a gut feeling either way. It would be fun to have a boy and I know it would be very healing to hold a healthy son in my arms considering the trauma we experienced with the premature birth and subsequent loss of our baby G. However, I also love having a baby girl too. Either way I will be happy. Sometimes Malone manages to convince me we're having a boy but then the next second I will be swaying toward the idea of having another girl. So I guess I'm a fence sitter.
Our baby K, on the other hand has recently formed a definite opinion. This was a conversation I had with her recently:
Me: "Baby K do you want a baby brother or sister?" Baby K: "Sister" (She never answers the same on this question by the way. She doesn't quite understand yet) Me: "But what if you have a baby brother?" Baby K: "No way!!!"

hmmmm I am going to say boy, just because it would be fun for you to have another boy (so you can raise both a boy and a girl). I really dont have a clue or care either way as far as my own pregnancy goes. It's our first, so we are happy with whatever. :)
