June 27th
Video of when we found out she was a she:
We had our 18 week anatomy and gender scan on Monday, June 27th. Of course, we had been counting down the weeks, days, then minutes and seconds until we could find out the baby's sex. Calling our baby "it" was getting a bit old! Plus I was so anxious to start planning our nursery and all of those fun things. Of course the appointment wasn't scheduled until 2:45 in the afternoon, and then we had to wait until around 4 to get called because they were running behind! Patience is a virtue, right? lol... Finally, we were called back to the ultrasound room. Justin, Brittany and I went back like giddy little kids! Final predictions were in, some thought for sure a girl and some were convinced Baby Miller was a boy. I was so on the fence, having had dreams about me with a little girl, but 2 pee tests that predicted boy...On a side note, do not trust Intelligender (pee test at Walgreens). Both that I took turned "boy" right away...
Anyway, I laid on the table and immediately when the ultrasound tech put the prob on my belly the babies little bottom was front and center. I was thinking hmm I certainly don't see anything that would make me think boy. She asked us who predicted what, Brittany said girl and Justin said boy. Then, Justin said, is it a girl?! And we all started screaming! It was so exciting! Luckily, we had Brittany as our photographer and video person, so we were able to get the moment on tape! So special.
The rest of the scan was nerve wrecking-checking to make sure our little girl had all of her organs, body parts, etc. Thankfully, the doctor assured us that she was developing on track and everything looked great...phew-big sigh of relief! She measured 9 ounces - putting her on track to arrive about 4 days prior to the predicted due date (which might I add was the original date that I predicted my due date as based on my LMP...). Since it was only 4 days, they decided to keep my due date set at November 28th, but 4 days earlier would set her arrival for Thanksgiving! We'll see... :)
XOXO,
Katie (& Baby GIRL)
