We don't know yet!!! We closed our eyes during the money shot and the tech sealed the pics in an envelope. We won't know until Thursday evening. I'm having a gender cake made and a small party with family. Everyone is freaking out but me. I'm oddly calm and patient about it, but I figured I waited 17 wks what's 2 more days to have this moment with my family? Results from the down's and trisomy blood work came back and looks good. Everything looks normal and baby is healthy. I've been worried about gaining weight since I've been sick but mw said my belly and baby is growing and as long as that's happening everything is fine. I've only gained 1/2 lb. so far. Still not sure about that. I told her I was sick of throwing up all the time and she suggested Zantac several times a day and if that doesn't help they will write me a script for something. She thinks most of my prob is acid reflux. I hope it helps. Anyone else sharing gender news with family in a different way?

I love that you are doing a gender cake! I wanted to do one so bad but we decided to bring our daughters with us to find out. So I am making a cake for the girls I work with. We have our A/S tomorrow.

WE actually were able to let my family come in the u/s room and see for themselves. Of course me and the DH saw first, plus I wanted it just to be me and him right to begin with just in case something was wrong. But after about 2 min. we let the rest of the family in. I think there were 8 people in the room finding out. His mom was so excited she started jumping up and down and dancing. I was glad that both my grandma's were able to do this with us!
