. . . secret, sealed inside a little manilla envelope that michelle hid from me because she thinks i'll peek while she is out of town. so much for trust, huh?
todays appointment went really well. the baby looked normal and there was nothing they saw to cause concern. the ultrasound gal said it was obvious what the sex was and made us look away from the screen which leads me to believe it's a boy (for obvious reasons) but i asked michelle's doctor who said girls can be just as obvious. i think it's a boy.
he/she cooperated on that part of the ultrasound but wouldn't on everything else. i guess the norm for this mid-pregnancy ultrasound is about ten to fifteen pictures. we have two. the one posted here and the other sealed in that blasted, hidden envelope that michelle wont give me. grrrrr. she couldn't get a good profile or one of the fingers. the baby has fingers but we don't have any photos to prove it.
i'll let michelle tell you more later. til then, the one photo we do have is here. i can make it out pretty easy but michelle had trouble at first. the best thing to do is look at it from a distance and squint. and to use your imagination. you're looking straight on at the baby's face and body. we'll get more, hopefully better, pictures at the next appointment, hopefully some that are easier to "see." til then, let me introduce you to the envelope baby, or at least the head of the envelope baby. and the fist. that's the blob by the head.
