Today is our monthly OB-GYN visit. We thought it was going to be a short and everything-is-ok visit. It turned out today is a big day, not just Cinco De Mayo. After listening to the baby's heartbeat, the doctor asked us if we wanted to find out the baby's gender. At first, we thought she meant if we wanted to find out during the U/S next Monday. But she meant today, there, in her office! We were like, yeah, why not. I was like, I knew it's a boy already, her examination is just going to confirm it.
However, however, after looking at the U/S for 2 seconds, she said: It's a girl! Both Scott and I were shocked. I forgot if I asked "are you sure? are you serious?", but she looked more and said confidently, "yeah, there is no balls hanging out, it's a girl. Don't announce it yet, but I am 90% sure it's a girl." That's it! we are having a girl!?
I probably still need a couple of months to adjust to this idea. I have established in my mind that it's a boy. It's difficult to connect to a girl yet. I can't identify with a baby girl yet. wait, wait, maybe we will find out otherwise next Monday. only with 10% chance though.
Scott must be happy. He is going to have his "Daddy's little girl" now. They are going to form an alliance against me. sigh...
