Yesterday was our big appointment with our Doc, the one in which we could find out the sex, in addition to learning that the Mother and Baby were doing well. I will skip the minutiae, and hit the high points. First, during the sonogram, Angie felt the baby move--a whole lot, and there was no confusing it with anything else. I, being the supportive nurturing father, encouraged the baby to utilize Angie's womb as a punching bag and practice some Karate. With that, they got started and several pictures were taken of the baby and from what they determined we were having a very healthy and happy baby. There was even some thumb sucking while taking a break from the sparring with Angie's womb. Angie was in good health too, and seemed to brighten up when the Doc made an entrance (I am so glad they get along so well). A brief discussion about pain and epidurals and then it was off to work for Angie and I.
Here are several pictures of the baby that will not ruin the surprise for you if you don't want to know. At the bottom, however, I will let the secret slip, as Angie and I both decided that we wanted to know...
This picture shows the baby with her hand at her mouth, probably nibbling on a finger...
Alright, here goes the spoiler...
It's a GIRL!
This picture may come back to haunt her, though. It's indicating what isn't present, thus making it a girl. I am a little hesitant to start my child off in the world with this picture, but I can always take it down...
