If you've seen Facebook, you know already, but...

We're having a boy! He's absolutely adorable, and seems perfect in every way. I've never been incredibly impressed by other people's ultrasound pictures, but this experience absolutely blew me away. I love being able to think about him as "him," as our son instead of simply our baby. The day-to-day, moment-to-moment experience seems much more real now.

He yawned while we were watching, but the technician didn't include a picture of it (grrrrr). She noted how unusually visible his heart (with all four chambers) was (sheesh, she didn't include a picture of that, either, even though she took six or seven! Grrrrr times two).

Anyway, we're halfway there (amazingly!). So far, so good!

Super fab.
They only take the heart pictures for the readiologist they're actually not all that great printed out, but hugely great for a mom who wants to see that thing beatin' away.
So happy for you guys.
Did they change your due date at all? Mine always moves forward a week, fairly depressing.

Thanks, Hil! They didn't change my due date yet - I was just with the technician for the U/S...perhaps the OB will change it once I have my next appointment with him on Sept. 1...
