We went in for our 18 week sono to find out that we have a REALLY difficult baby on our hands. The whole time 'it' was laying head down like in a head stand, curled around the placenta and had the legs closed tight. They could see a little bump but never could get a shot of the boy parts to confirm if it was a boy or girl. He said he would wander to guess boy but would not buy blue because at that point it could be swollen girl parts....
I was pretty disappointed but felt like I was right, that we were totally having a boy as I have felt non stop since we got pregnant. So I had my 18 week appointment that week also and she said that I was measuring perfect, and also that as long as we don't have any complications that we wouldn't have any more sonograms....This is where I start hating my doctor btw. So I leave and think, well fine, we'll have a babywaves appointment and find out that way after 20 weeks. So I've had a few pretty boring weeks, no funky stuff, only getting sick once a week like I have been etc; etc;.
So we get to go in for our 20 week sono at babywaves, that my doctor refuses to sign permission for. Thankfully they never even asked for the permission slip so we got to go in anyways. This is where I'm finding a way to switch primary care physicians if possible Monday, because I officially HATE my doctor. really? you're going to deny a babywaves appointment. For gods sakes.
We get in and I immediately inform the tech that we have a pretty defiant baby on our hands. I mean, the last sonogram we had LITERALLY crossed feet. Which i was REALLY bummed about as was Q. So I tell her if we need to use the full 30 minutes to figure out the sex, that's fine. So she gets in position, what do you know. The baby has flipped, BUT, is now sitting cross-legged on the butt....making a view pretty hard to get. She says confidently 'oh they always undo you just have to give them some time'...So she starts showing us the face, which was a much better sono picture than our last, of course we have the typical crazy hands like the last time, which we refer to as 'jazz hands' And she tries again. She gets 3 white lines numerous times, which is a girl. But can't get a good shot yet...so she goes back around. And the only way she can get a view is to move from the top of my stomach dowwwn to the pelvic bone and look up with the probe. I swear she made that movement 50 times. But we keep getting 3 lines, 3 lines, no boy parts. So.....I was wrong....
We're having a GIRL!!!!
The Tech Said this is By far the most difficult baby she has ever had to try and find gender on.
Quincy was maybe a hair disappointed, i sort of blame myself which he says obviously is not my fault and he will love her anyways, but I was so persistent that I swore it was a boy. I mean, we had a boy name picked out (Brecken Kenneth), and had not even looked at girl names because I felt it was kind of pointless. But since last night he has come WAY around to it and I know he'll love her no matter what.
So she's our little stubborn shocker!
Still No Ideas on names btw.
Also, I PROMISE to get a belly pic up and more of the 20 week Sono.
