We had our big ultrasound today and learned that baby #2 is a little girl!!! Hadley Rebekah is doing great and is keeping her same due date of November 22. The tech asked during the ultrasound what I thought I was having and I looked up on the screen to see the tell-tale sign of a little girl!!! "Is it a girl?" I asked.
"It is!" she said.
Tears were flowing quickly and thus began the ugly cry. It was such a cry that she had to ask if this was a good thing or a bad thing. It is great news!!! Hadley will be the first girl on my side of the family. So that is very exciting for us!
We do have a prayer request for you along with this announcement. I have a low-lying placenta right now which will likely resolve on its own. Please pray that this is resolved to avoid complications near the end of pregnancy. We were told almost all ladies who have this before 20 weeks end up seeing it resolved by 28 weeks or so. That's what we're praying for. I'll probably have another ultrasound in 6-10 weeks to check on that.
As for pictures, they were pretty disappointing. They are pretty blurry so its hard to make things out. Maybe my belly was shaking too much when I was crying??? Anyways, we'll see if the next ultrasound produces better shots to post. Just know, she looks like your typical alien baby at 18 weeks.

I am so excited for you. A girl will be such a wonderful blessing and you won't be outnumbered like me! I am so sorry to hear about the sickness you had. Wish I could have been there to help. So thankful it was not more serious and you are recovering. Gina
