Never doubt your 4 year old :-)

WOW what a fun day!! We are having a girl! LMAO It is so great, shocking, but not one bit disappointed (I was when I thought Caden was a girl). We are both just super excited and now we are definitely going bankrupt!! LOL
The princess looks absolutely perfect, beautiful. Our tech thought she heard us say we didn't want to know what we were having! So we do all the important things, look at her head, yep two hemisphere’s equally proportioned, her heart have four function chambers, so beautiful, her kidneys and bladder working perfectly, no cleft lip, perfect neck, spine shot just absolutely beautiful (my second fav shot), the arms, two hands, two legs, and two Thompson feet!! She's got boats! She has THE Malloy nose, so cute.
I will upload the pics when I get my Mac back up and running.
So our tech made a quick sweep over her money spot but kept going, but we knew it was a girl, Mike said it out loud and I just kept watching. She goes "Okay, well will see you in about 4 weeks, I couldn't get a good look at her heart, nothing's wrong, but in her position I couldn't get a clear view" She told us to have a good day and Mike goes "Wait, what are we having?"
"I can't tell you that!"
"Why not?" I say. She starts to laugh and said, "I thought you didn't want to know, hold on, I know but I will show you."
She goes right to the shot, waits 5 seconds and then we both say, that is so a girl!! I was laughing so hard!!! Two weddings, hello national debt!
So when I got home, I tell Caden.
"Caden I found out today we are having a girl"
He goes, "I already told you that mommy!" And if most of you remember he did. He told me that when I didn't even know I was pregnant. You'd think I'd had learned to not doubt him since he knew I was pregnant with Teagan before I did and that she was a girl.
So the name game begins and this will be a tough one. I have always loved the name Lillian since I was a little girl, Lilli for short, it's also a family name on both sides of our family, ends in a 'n', necessary, but Mike doesn't like it. There really isn't much to choose from, so we are going to have to get creative. Or scratch the whole 'n' thing altogether which Mike says no to. So it will be our daily battle, sometimes infuriating, but fun nonetheless.
She is measuring at exactly 20 weeks on the nose. So no worries on size, especially since she is a girl. I have been having serious heartburn issues, worse with this one of course, and we think I have caused some damage from being so sick. So I’m switching to Tagament and hopefully it will work better than Pepcid or Zantac, if not I will be moved on to a prescription. We are doing another u/s at 28 weeks, normal, to do 3D and take a look at her heart again. I go back for my next appointment on June 14th, just a normal check up.
