June 14 and June 15
The last time we went to the OB, our baby wouldn't move his/her legs to see if it was a boy or a girl. This time round, we had our anatomical ultrasound so we were bound to find out. The technician showed us many different body parts like the chambers of the heart, arms, legs, kidneys, etc. The only issue I had was that she was going through it so fast it took awhile to catch on to what we were looking at. She asked if we wanted to know the gender, to which we replied, "Heck Yes!" She told us to look in certain area where there were two white dots. It's a GIRL!!! No wonder we didn't see anything last time. There was nothing there! No eleventh finger. ;)
I feel like a bad person for saying this, but I was a little disappointed that our baby wasn't a boy. A few nights earlier, I had a dream that we were at our ultrasound and the nurse said it was a girl. In my dream, I outbursted: NOOOO! I want it to be a boy! I woke up really confused because I felt that it was going boy. But sure enough, my dream was correct. Aren't truthful dreams weird?!
It took awhile for the news to set in. Now I am just ecstatic to have a little girl. I think I am more excited for Nate to have a daughter than I am for myself.
She's smiling!
The next day, we went back to see Dr. Williams about the ultrasound and have a check-up. He told me that because our girl's size and dimensions weren't average for the given week, they were going to push back my due date by two weeks. Our due date went from being Oct 26th to Nov 10th. Isn't the due date an estimation anyway? So why move it back? Oh well, she'll get here when she gets here.

Yay for girls :) They pushed mine back about 2 weeks too. My doc said you'd be mad at me if it stayed the same and she came on the new due date, this way if she comes before the new due date you'll be happy ;)
