The "BIG" Ultrasound and it's a...

...little brat. (smile) Already he or she has quite the personality. Peanut (as some of my friends have started calling him/her) refused to cooperate. When they first started the U/S he/she was waving and kicking away at the wand...as we got through with all the main stuff (heart, head, measurements, etc) the tech started to look for the sex... No go. He/She had their legs closed right tight. So the tech started doing other measurements... We move back to get the gender and now he/she has their ankles crossed. So she does a few other measurements that she doesn't really need just to kill time... We go back down again and now, the little brat was literally sitting indian style and we couldn't get up underneath or above enough to tell. *Sigh* Oh well. At least everything measured well. He/She is quite the active one - kicking away and waving...we even saw him/her sucking their thumb which was sweet to see. We got to measure the circumfrence of the head and torso as well as measuring the 4 long bones... Talk about long legs! Oh well... I guess I'm not supposed to know yet (but go ahead - ask me if I'm taking my own advice) but all measured well and appears really healthy after yesterday's B/P fiasco, so I suppose I don't have anything to complaint about. I'll get the pictures scanned soon.
