Surprise!

Last week, Randy and I went in for a scheduled ultrasound. This was part of my nuchal/birth defects workup. We didn't have this workup with Quinn, so we didn't know what to expect.

The ultrasound was exciting! We got to see the baby, its arms and legs, hear the heartbeat, etc. We were also granted some unexpected news.



While we knew that we would find out the baby's gender, we certainly weren't expecting to at 14 weeks! We were so excited to learn that we are having a son. Our conversations immediately turned to boy names, toys and trucks, and (this one might be just me) how to decorate the nursery. We will have another anatomy ultrasound in a few weeks.

I had a regular doctor's appointment today, and everything went well. I pretty much look the same. My tummy is slowly growing! I am hungry, hungry, hungry all the time, and the scale is definitely starting to show that! Some of my fatigue has gone away, so I don't feel like a zombie all the time. It's nice to be able to function and feel like I can make it through a full day.

Have a great week!

  1. Oh Jill, congratulations!!! That is so awesome.

    For some reason, I don't get your updates even though I "follow" your blog. I may "unfollow" and then click the follow button again and see if that works.

    A baby boy. You are truly blessed. Quinn will be an awesome big sister.
