It's a girl...well, probably :)

I had an appointment with a specialist this morning (I'm considered high risk because of my age, 36). Everything looked normal and their were no markers for down's syndrome.

I was really surprised that they were willing to venture a gender, as I am only 14 weeks along. The tech was about 75% confident, but the Dr. was even more so!

I can safely start shopping for girlie things!

Besides, I am pragmatic...I have another ultrasound in 6 weeks, so if they change their minds by then I can take all the girl stuff back, LOL

We already had decided on both a boy and a girl name, but I am always open to suggestions

(My mother is always insisting that you need a backup, because when my older sister was born, she didn't "look" like the name they had picked out)

You could name her after me.

Whooohoo! Little girlies are fun! (and you don't have to worry about the circumcising thing)

Yep, I think names need to "match" the baby!

That's true about the circumcision! Though I tried to explain to my husband, as excited as I was about the girl we were having, I was still sad about the little boy that we weren't.

He thought that was crazy, because how could you miss what didn't exist? And I tried to explain that before you know there is a possibility of both, and I think as women we think about those possibilities a lot more. Or is that just me??

At any rate, he said "too bad, this is the only one you get" LOL
