WE ARE HAVING A BABY GIRL!!!!!
We are sooooo happy to be able to find out the gender today. I've read other ppl's posting about babies not cooperating and u/s tech couldn't find out their genders @ a/s. I remembered about one post saying to drink OJ before u/s, so I did that.....BAD call! My baby was super active so u/s tech couldn't tell the gender first. She told me to meet my doc first and come back afterwords. She told me I shouldn't have drunk OJ...but too late...Then, we went back for the 2nd try and the tech told me it's a girl. I cried when she told me that. I am so happy!!!!
I am so glad my DH finally could see a moving baby u/s as he has only seen static u/s. We heard the HB of 159 and everything is on track, so no issue
Wow, it feels so real. Until now, it was like "we are having a baby", so it was more general. Now, we know that we are having a daughter and that added so much more identity to the baby!!!

Yay! I knew there had to be at least one girl Turkey in the bunch! And I totally agree with you: it's so much easier relating to your baby once you know what it is. For me, it was even better once we had names so that they were "real" people to me already.
Do you have a name picked out yet? Are you sharing?

I like Collin. In my mind, I sometimes mistakenly think Collin instead of Cooper. Still trying to say the names to myself as much as possible to get used to them
Glad to hear that you're doing okay, minus the power.
