We had our a/s today and from what we could tell, everything looks good and baby is measuring on time, give or take a few days or so. We are meeting up with our parents tomorrow to tell them the sex but I can't wait that long to share with you guys (so nothing on FB or anything)! I'm super excited, E is getting a little SISTER! I've been feeling all along it was a girl but I was still shocked!
I'm sure your excitement just got away from you, but the timing of this thread is pretty insensitive given what two of our regular posters have been going through this week.
We are all happy for you, I'm sure, but it's hard to feel right congrating you in front of those who are grieving.

I understand that, which is why I added the @ warning and kept it to a separate post. I'm sorry if I hurt anyone by posting this. I just wanted to share the news.

Thank you pooh8402 and bk1. I really am sorry if I hurt anyone. I've just been in such a dark mental state lately that I was excited to share something positive for once. I wouldn't be offended in the slightest if someone completely skipped the post and didn't comment or anything, I would 100% understand.
I get it estrellita. Things aren't good here so I haven't been posting much. I feel for everyone who is hurting right now, but I am also excited and very happy for you <3
Congratulations! I pictured you with 2 boys for some reason! A little sister will be so much fun!
I thought it was going to be a boy too! Heart rates have been the same as E's were, not that that's a true sign but still, lol. I've been surrounded by mostly boys (cats are also boys, I'm the youngest girl on my mom's side, etc) so I figured this baby was going to also be a boy! Our families are going to be SO excited and this little girl is going to be more spoiled than E is!

We told our parents and my sister tonight! All except MIL guessed girl, lol. Before we told them, I mentioned that the heart rates were almost exactly the same as E's were at the same points, and my sister goes "uh oh." Haha. I asked H what he thought everyone's reaction would have been if it were another boy since they were super excited for a girl. Oh well I guess! We'll probably announce it on FB tomorrow

And I know I said in my first post I had a feeling it was a girl all along but I wasn't sure if that was just a slight preference coming through. I figured I'd end up a boy mom too! I'm not the girliest girl ever and had my younger boy cousins around a lot so boys are pretty much no problem. It'll be interesting but fun to have a girl! Though I'm already dreading her teenage years if she takes after me... eek!
