Ultrasound and Gender Reveal!


This past Tuesday, I had my first ultrasound and got to finally see Poppy! It was really amazing to get to see this little person that I've been feeling move and kick for a while now. And Poppy totally cooperated so we were able to find out that we are having...A BOY! It's so amazing to know that we'll have a son and be able to refer to Poppy as a he.

We got to see everything – his heart, brain, stomach (which was full meaning that he can swallow which is fantastic!), arms, legs, little feet, etc. And we got some pictures to take home so I'll share a few of those:

After the ultrasound, we had an appointment with one of the OBs and she said everything looked perfect which was a relief to hear. Since I hadn't had any ultrasounds yet we were both a little concerned that there would be something wrong that couldn't have been detected before. But the little guy is just the right size, everything is developed as it should be, and we're right on track for my April 30th due date.

So, that's about it for now. I do have plans for a few other blog posts that may make it up in the next week or so depending on how much time I find myself with over the holidays. So check back for those soon!
