...BABY! Today I had another doctor appointment - and though I tried to get another ultrasound to confirm the early GIRL prediction, I had no success. The doctor insisted that they were "always" right - and before that, his nurse said they can tell a baby's gender between 13-15 weeks. Well, ok then!! But isn't there a first time for everything?!! In any case, I was thankful to hear a heartbeat & know all is well as far as we can tell from the outside.
I have a horrendous contusion on my stomach from where I ran my pregnant belly smack into the thing that holds the nozzle at the gas pump last Friday!! I showed the doctor but all he had to say about that was "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm." Not much sympathy coming from this guy. He did ask if I had any questions - and he did say to call if I had any concerns (and this guy gives out his home phone # so he can't be all uncaring?!).
I immediately left the doctor's office - and hit the outlet mall near by! The Carter's store was having some great clearance deals - and I had a "25% off your entire purchase" coupon too. I did look around - and there are very few neutral, green/yellow/orange/purple type outfits out there. Even the yellow/orange/green/purple outfits are trimmed in either pink or blue! I got 7 very cute - very pink & girly - sleepers, dresses, and outfits in several sizes from newborn to 6 months.
My family was - once again - disappointed that there was no ultrasound; but we are just going to act like we're having a girl --- and keep the receipts to anything we buy - aside from the Goodwill and thrift store items. AND if all else fails, and we have a boy, my brother & his wife ARE having a girl in November. We will have plenty of gifts for them, if that's the case.
