I want to know what this baby is!!!
Just a little bit of a whine here. :redface:
I really wanted to find out what this baby is at our 20 week ultrasound, but after a long session with an uncooperative baby, it was lunch time, and the technician was not really interested in searching for the sex, so she made a quick attempt, and said, nope, sorry, can't get it, and that was that. :( I can't really blame her - it was her break time, and really, finding out the sex is not essential. But I WANTED TO KNOW!!!
This is the third time this has happened to us! With our first, we knew we were having a girl. With the second and third they couldn't tell, and now, not with this one either.
And, to be perfectly honest, I don't care what it is! People assume we're hoping for a boy, and sure, that would be nice, but we will be equally thrilled with another little pink person. :)
I just want to know if I have to find some boy clothes. And bedding. And blankets. And undershirts. Heck, everything I have is pink! And I REALLY want to get some of the beautiful Aden and Anais swaddling blankets I've been drooling over, but I don't want neutral colours - I want pink or blue!
I want to pick a name, and call my baby by that name!
We thought about having a 3D ultrasound done, but they're $150, and things are tight enough right now, without adding an unnecessary expense like that. Really, it is unnecessary. Even though I really want it. ;)
I've considered asking my midwife if there's any chance of getting another ultrasound, but I highly doubt it. Everything is going beautifully, and I'm measuring exactly normal, so, no reason to go for another one.
OK, OK, I know, it's not that big of a deal. I've got a few blue/neutral outfits, and I'm sure they'd tide me over until I can get to the store if need be. And it's really not that many more weeks until this bean arrives and ends all doubts as to his/her gender. I just wanted to know now.
Thank you for sharing my pout. I'll get over it, I'm sure.
Got any good tips for guessing what you're having? I've guessed wrong twice now. Thought the last two were DEFINITELY boys. I've given up on guessing. ;)
