Timer has popped!
I think it's timing is a little off though....
It's funny, with Jessi only the very tip-top stuck a little bit out. With Barrett, about half of it stuck out. This is the first time it's come all the way out! And it was all of a sudden.
22w 3d
So, we had our U/S on Tuesday. I was very determined that we wouldn't find out what we were having this time around.
Well, Here's the story.
When we found out we were expecting again, we decided we were going to wait a while this time to tell people. SO, that ment that we didn't tell Jessi either. Because she likes to talk.
About 3 days after we found out, Jessi asked me out of the blue if I had another baby in my belly! I didn't want to say yes, so I just asked her if SHE wanted there to be another baby. She said Yes!
Then, about 2 days later, she started telling me that I had a baby sister in my belly. Ever since then, it's been all about the baby sister. She wouldn't hear ANYTHING to do with "him, he, boy, brother". She would correct you if you said otherwise. (When we finally told her that yes, there was a baby in the belly at 13 weeks when we told family, she just looked at us like "why are you telling me this? I already knew that.")
Wade felt very strong that this baby was a girl. And he's been right with t he other two.
I felt very strongly that this was a girl. But I refused to say so, as I've been wrong with the other two.
So we go in for the U/S. I don't want to find out. Wade does. Jessi doesn't care, because she knows already.
The tech ask's us if we want to know. We kind of laughed at each other and she says she'll wait until the end of the u/s and ask again.
We have lots of fun, they had a brand-spanking new machine and it was awsome!! You could see things you couldn't with their "old" (only 3 years old!) machine. The regular images were almost as good as 3D!
Then, I think I see something. But don't say anything.
I ask Jessi if she really wants to know if it's a girl or if it was really a boy. She answers, "It's a girl." We ask again in a few different ways and she looks at us like we're dumb and says "It's a girl!" She called the baby a "she" or "sister" the whole time. Asked about every 2 minutes what "she" was doing on the screen.
Then, I see another image. And I know. So I tell the tech that she might as well comfirm it becuase I wasn't going to know, but not "know". That's no fun.
Here's some pictures:
The only 3D image we got. The tech waited until the end and by then the baby had put on quite a show and was finished. So here the baby was folded in half, holding it's feet. We couldn't get a face image or anything.
And here's what ended up being the telling shot. I REALLY think that if it had been done on the old machine, we wouldn't have been able to tell. But you could see EVERYTHING with this one, so it was pretty clear. (click to make bigger)
