We had our big appointment on Friday. Before meeting with the doctor, we had our anatomy ultrasound, where they measuring every bone and feature of the baby, as well as my uterus and placenta, to make sure everything is going well. Cameron and I knew how hard it was going to be to get through this 30 minute ultrasound, seeing as we don't want to know the sex. After being pregnant with 2 boys and 3 girls, we definitely know what to look for!! As soon as we got in the room, we gave the tech our "orders", trying not to seem controlling. And so, we sat and faced the opposite way of the ultrasound screen, talking about whatever so that the time passed and we didn't have the urge to peek. The hardest thing was the fact that the tech knew the sex of the baby from the very beginning; she just wanted to get that out of the way. We kept reminding her to say "the baby", and not "he" or "she". All went perfectly and there was no slip up.
So that we have some gender reveal ultrasound pics to put in the baby's book after he/she is born, we had the tech wrap up a couple photos and tightly seal it in this envelope. Because I am the type to secretly open and rewrap Christmas presents that are for me (just like my mommy =), Cameron COULD NOT leave this anywhere near me for the next 19 weeks. He took it to work and hopefully he doesn't give into the temptation. I'm sure you all want to take a tour of the Pepsi lab now, don't you??
At the end of the ultrasound, we got to see the baby's face and beating heart. Still holding very strong at 148bpm. Whoever is in there is sooooo active!! He/she was non-stop kicking and punching for the entire ultrasound. We got some cute ultrasound photos to take with us. We can't wait for our 3D/4D ultrasound in a couple months... I wonder who he/she will look like!
We then saw the doctor and he gave us our perfect report on baby. A little too perfect; our chunker is measuring 10 days ahead of schedule... weighing in at 15 ounces!!!! The doctor said he wouldn't be surprised if I went into labor a couple weeks early and that would be just fine seeing as she/he is growing ahead. Other then that, everything is great physically. If we happen not to go into labor before, we scheduled our c-section for Thursday, May 23rd.
Here is my 20 week belly shot... yes, I GREW!!!!! But, I have to say that it is all going to my belly (maybe my butt grew too!!!) and I am doing more then great with my weight gain... only up 10 pounds. I don't think I could ever say I've been that good in the past. Go me!!!!!
And just for fun, here is my progression so far!!!
any guesses for the sex? i have mine!

We tried to get pregnant for a few years in a local clinic. There were no results. We've tried everything possible but nothing. We were recommended to use eggs. I know we have to go abroad. I was terrified. I didn't know where to go and where to begin my search. When my friend recommended Dr Itua to me from western Africa I thought she was joking. I knew nothing about that country but I well know they have powerful gifts on herbal medicines and I was afraid because of the language barrier. Anyway she convinced me to give a try. She told me that Dr Itua can also cure my prostate cancer which gives me more motivation to give a try to Dr Itua herbal center medicines. I've done the research and thought that maybe this really is a good idea. Dr Itua has reasonable prices which I ordered two four bottles and I drank it as instructed and everything went well. My prostate cancer is gone. Also it has high rates of successful treatments. Plus it uses natural herbs. Well I should say I was convinced. We contacted Dr Itua and now we can say it was the best decision in our lives. We were trying for so long to have a child and suddenly it all looked so simple. Dr Itua was so confident and hopeful he projected those feelings on me too. I am so happy to be a mother and eternally thankful to Dr Itua herbal Cure . Don’t be afraid and just do it!
