How amazing is this photo? I am in complete awe of this tiny little life living and growing in my tummy.
The morning started with 5 huge glasses of water that needed to be taken an hour and a half before the ultrasound. We arrived at the hospital at 10:30am and I was already busting and we had to wait another 30 minutes before we were seen. By that time, the urge wasnt really funny anymore. I REALLY NEEDED TO GO! he he...
The lady rushed to do what she had to while I had a full bladder then I was able to go to the bathroom. Never in my life have I looked forward to going to the bathroom so much!! he he....
Anyways we were in there for about 45 minutes in which we were able to see our extremely wriggly baby move before our eyes. The baby has grown SO much in the last four weeks. The lady was so great at explaining exactly what she was doing, showing us what parts were what and telling us about the measurements she was taking. Christine, was her name, spent most of the time laughing at the baby because of how much it was moving around. The baby was making it very difficult to take clear photos and get measurements. She ended up asking me to lay on my stomach for 10 minutes hoping that the baby would rest in a new position and calm down so she could get photos and meaurements of its heart. And it worked!
Finally before the ultrasound finished the lady looked to see if we could find out if our baby was a boy or a girl. Unfortunately, because of the way the baby was positioned we couldnt find out for cetain but the lady hinted at what she thought the baby was. So it looks like we're gonna have to wait until later on down the track before we can go out buying blue or pink things!!
We are very excited parents-to-be!!
At church on the weekend everyone was commenting on how I'm really starting to show. Will have to get some pics and post them on the blog.
Hope you are all well,
Love Meg, Jer & ??

What a thrill to see that baby forming so beautifully!! I sat here and cried as I looked at the picture! Can you believe it?? We are so happy for you ! God bless the bunch of you!!!Popa is in Calgary at his Bro-in- Law's Memorial so he hasn't seen it yet! He'll be tickled pink(or blue) when he sees this tomorrow. Love you lots, Gram (did you get your parcel yet?)
Hi Meg,
Incredible!! It's so amazing and exciting and thrilling I can hardly stand it! I watched the video of the baby over and over (and I made everyone who walked by my office watch it as well). Make sure your handsome husband takes good care of you ... you're carrying precious cargo! Love you!
So great guys! I can't wait to see pictures one day when you're holding the little guy or girl!! Congratulations on holding your bladder for that long! I don't know if I could have done it!!
