had an ultrasound, and we are having...

A BABY!!!

We had another ultrasound yesterday. This one was because at my last appointment I measured "too small." The dr. thought it was possibly because the baby has turned and is now head down. But because I'm having a c-section, he wanted to make sure everything was okay.

Turns out the baby is head down now -- which *I* could have told him as there are more kicks in my ribs now, and we were able to get a picture of the baby's face. While we were watching the baby's face on the monitor it kept putting its arm up to its mouth and sucking on it. It was very awesome! But I kept thinking, "Oh, no. Another thumb sucker." :( Perhaps this one will take to a plug better than the other 2. And we are definitely having either a boy or a girl.

hehe I think it's so much fun to read these, both you and my cousin are pregnant, and about the same way along.. my cousin is a little farther ahead, AND she's having twins, but I just realized when I opened my dashboard today that all of the posts were about the babies... :)
Glad everything's doing ok!

Heh heh. I'm glad you're having a baby. At least you know that it's not a boy AND girl.

Apparently I haven't checked your blog in a while since I'm not sure if I knew you were pregnant. Maybe I did, but I wanted to say CONGRATS!!!!!! Yay!
