I know this is OT for this board, but I feel like I know you girls so much better than the ladies on my new BMB. I posted there too, but I wanted to share with you all also. I am so happy... I was feeling very worried bc of my age (almost 37) and the fact that the way I have been getting through my pregnancy has been by telling myself that this is the last time I have to go though this. I almost felt guilty like I was jinxing myself!
Well,we have a perfectly healthy baby in there... measurements were perfect and along with the blood test it puts me in a 1 in 3600 range for downs and 1 in 6700 for the other tristomies... the same as a 20 year old. What a relief to not have to worry so much, and next week on to the second trimester. hurrah!
I asked if they could see anything between baby's legs... she said that she does not like to say, but it looks like there might be a little penis there, and I think I saw it too! I told dh not to get his hopes up (we already have two girls), but I am excited at the prospect that we might be having a boy... I think it would be neat to see what raising a boy is like. I am so used to girls!
We told dd who is 8, and she is so thrilled. I was a little worried what her reaction would be, because now that we have a 1 year old she knows that a baby is a lot of work, I was so happy that she was so happy, and feel so blessed to have such a wonderful daughter.
