Well, since nothing in this pregnancy can go without drama, My ultrasound took no less than 2 hours with no less than 3 different doctors coming in and doing more scanning and more measurements and an Advanced Maternal Age specialist coming in to discuss genetic anomalies and my options and my having to sign a form that I was declining an amniocentesis. All of this was to tell me that everything looked blessedly good.
ridiculous. I'm only 36 freakin years old, people!

ReplyDeleteOMIGOSH congratulations 1000 times and more! What a fantastic moment captured on film; the kids are too stinkin cute.
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled for the pinkness but so much more that all looked good. Wish I could hug you in person...so very happy for you.
What great news! That SHE is fine! I'm so thrilled for you. I love miracles!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great video. And congrats on your baby girl so happy all went good.
ReplyDeleteWell you *knew* from the begining you were having a girl and this comfirmed it. I love the joy in Jellybean. She is very happy to be even with the boys now! And just think of all those cute clothes for ladybug can be used again for NuBaby. I am happy for you, and it almost makes me want another.... almost! :)
ReplyDeleteYay! and congratulations. So glad that things are looking good for you and your little girl.
ReplyDeleteI'm 1 week behind you, so your little snippets of pregnancy things give me a little warning of what to expect next week. Though I am still waiting to be able to say conclusively that I can feel movement ... I think I can, but it's my first pregnancy so I don't really know.
1 more point for mother's intuition. What a great way of telling the kids! I LOVE the kids' reactions. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on baby girl! So glad to hear all is well!
ReplyDeleteKATE! I've been so cautious to post, so on the edge of my seat, praying and thinking about you so often and I feel like I can finally say, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so excited for you, you have no idea.
ReplyDeletePink is good :)
yea yea yea yea yea!
ReplyDeleteI am SO happy for you. What an adorable way to tell the rest of the family (btw those are some yummy looking cupcakes). Jellybean is hilarious.
I knew it was a girl -- such a little survivor!
Congrats, Elizabeth
That's so sweet - did you peek before showing everyone? ;)
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear the u/s went well, even though it must have been nerve wracking with the time and all the dr's. I was 38 with my first and 42 with my second - the RE tried to refer me to a high risk OB but I said no thanks and had a home birth with my midwives. You're just a pup (albeit an experienced one)! :)
Wishing you an easy time of it for the rest, mentally and physically.
Glad to hear everything is looking blessedly good. YAY. And I smiled at the 3 doctors and 2 hours. Altogether too familiar.
ReplyDeleteYay!!! So excited all is well. You have quite the intuition, you know?
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the video. How fun it will be for this little one to see it one day.
Okay, NOW are you going to share at IVFC?!?!? I hope you don't feel weird about it. It's a miracle pregnancy no matter how it came to be.
Our precious Sweeting, thank you for allowing all your friends from around the world to share in her life.
ReplyDeleteHer Auntie Mellie loves her already and all those little blonde siblings she is blessed with.
Coming late to the party. Thrilled to here all is well and well done on your intuition. for some reason I can't view the video but from the comments I am getting the picture! Really thrilled for you. Here's to an uneventful 20+ weeks
