Sex of Baby May


Well we still do not know...Baby May was in a meditation position today and pretty much had its legs crossed so we were unable to find out the sex. Oh well, there is always next time, we are learning patients. Here is a picture of the baby, you can see its spine really well.

14 week appointment

Well April had her 14 week appointment today and unfortunately we did not find out the sex. We were a bit disappointed but we did get to see some awesome pictures of the baby including the back bone and his/her hands near her head, (very cute). We and our doctor are very optimistic that our next appointment in 3 weeks will allow us to determine the sex. April is doing well and the baby appears healthy. The doctor asked us if we wanted to do a blood test for down's syndrome after discussing it I think we are going to op out of doing that. Our thought is even if the baby did have an issue there is really nothing we would be able to do and all it would do is stress us out and probably wouldn't be healthy for April or the baby. What does everyone think, I'm open to listening to anyone who thinks getting the blood test done is a good idea. We're starting to entertain the thought of looking at furniture for the babies room, We have ultrasound pictures that I will try and post soon.

Hello

I've started this blog to allow friends and family to follow our family as we grew, for those of you who haven't heard. (Where have you been) April is 14 weeks pregnant we are going to the doctor's office on Thursday February 4th for our appointment and hopefully to find out the sex of the baby. My goal for this blog is to make it easy for everyone to follow us on this exciting journey. Along the way I will try to keep everyone posted on things we are doing to prepare for the little bundle of joy and if April allows I will try to post pictures of her as her belly grows. So sit back relax and enjoy the ride. I am so thrilled to be a father I can't wait, please feel free to send me any tips, suggestions, sleep aids :) whatever.
