Hopefully, someday I will update this blog with our Christmas update, but I know if I don't get this pregnancy update out, some family members might panic.
We went in today to have our 20 week ultrasound. I won't officially be 20 weeks until Thursday, but we were able to get all the measurements that we needed. Everything looks really good, and we found out that we are having a boy. We took Makenzie and Morgan with us. Morgan told us before we went back that he KNEW we were going to have a girl. I really hoped that he would not throw a fit if it ended up being a boy.
The technician had a tough time finding out the sex of the baby. Our little guy kept his feet tucked up under his bottom for most of the ultrasound. When she finally announced that it was a boy, Morgan jumped off his chair and began jumping and dancing around the room. He is so excited. The whole way home they kids kept singing, "It's a boy, it's a boy, it's a boy." I was a little worried that Makenzie would feel bad that she will always be the only girl, but she was very excited to have another brother.
I will go in in a week, and I think the doctor and I will be discussing how to proceed for the rest of the pregnancy. The only problem that the technician could find is my placenta is low. She said that they will most likely keep an eye on it, but that it should lift back up as the pregnancy progresses.
I woke up in a panic last night, sure that things would not go well today. My fears always seem huge in the night. I'm so glad that I was wrong. I feel very relieved now that we have checked everything out. Hopefully I can quit worrying so much.
