Pregnant Jane ready for the ultrasound!
It has been a very, very long day for Jane and I! We both didn’t get much sleep at all because we were so excited about the ultrasound today. The day has been so long, I barely remember even writing the blog post before this one and had some good laughs at myself! So that means I’m either going crazy or I’m in need of much needed sleep.
The day started out pretty rough once we left the house. I’ll let Jane fill you guys in on all of those details because she was not nice to me. Yes, sadly I got to see the fire-breathing dragon again thanks to those pregnancy hormones kicking in – and there was no way for me to escape. I was trapped in the car and just kept my mouth shut, which is *sometimes* a way to tame the pregnancy hormones and fire-breathing dragon they create!
Here is Jane getting the BIG ultrasound!
Sometimes I just never know when those hormones are going to kick in. Sometimes I never know what to say or how to react. And 9.9 times out of ten, my reaction is the opposite of what I should have done or said… or not done or said. I’ve learned a few weeks ago that the pregnancy hormone battle is not a battle a father-to-be can win!
Anyway, today was a good day. Everything went VERY well and the ultrasound went GREAT. Our baby is in perfect health, everything checked out fine and the doctor even wrote A+ on the report! Sadly, she needed to keep the report so I wasn’t able to take that with us. That was our child’s first A+ and we are so proud! Heck, I don’t think I ever received an A+ in my life! So I know you guys are all wondering…
Because of the ultrasound today and learning if we’re having a boy or girl, has everything REALLY started to set in for both Jane and I? The answer is YES. Everything has become VERY real now! It’s amazing the difference that just one day makes. Fatherhood is setting in like crazy. Lots of thinking I want and need to do this evening.
Here is a picture of our baby when we learned boy or girl!
Other than that, as I mentioned above, Jane will be posting in a little while when she wakes up from her nap. She only got what, about 3 hours of sleep? That’s not enough for a pregnant girl at all! Worst case, if she sleeps the rest of the evening, then she’ll post and fill you in on our REALLY REALLY exciting day! It’s so incredible to finally know if we’re having a boy or girl and it’s so great to share this with all of you!
You guys have really helped us so much over the past month and a half and we REALLY appreciate you stopping by and commenting on our blog posts. Reading all of your replies, stories, suggestions, etc. has been amazing. So thanks again! And Jane and I are so so so so excited!!!! Whoooo Hoooooo!
P.S… The answer to the question, “are we having a boy or girl” is secretly hidden within the above post. Can you unlock the secret code? Or will the sex of our baby remain a secret forever!?
Oh… and here’s a picture of my beautiful pregnant Jane in the elevator after the ultrasound:
Too bad you can't see her HUGE smiling face after learning the BIG news!
