Pregnancy Journal: Week 18 & Gender Reveal!

I'm really bad at posting my weekly updates until the last possible day. Fortunately, I don't think too many people read these posts, so it's all good.

Anyway, last week I had my gender ultrasound. I think I touched on that in a previous post. I may as well get to the best part... the results!

IT'S A BOY!!

We're very excited since we already have 2 girls. My husband is over the moon to not be the only member of the family with a Y chromosome anymore. I'm insanely nervous about the whole circumcision thing and buying blue stuff and just parenting a boy in general. This is girl central... adding blue seems like it'll be hard. I hope not. :-/

I'm also starting to think about breast feeding. I'm not sure if I'll do it this time around since I had such a rough go of it the last time (I had an abscess that was quite large and had to be surgically drained. A nurse had to come in every day to change the dressing and it was all around horrible. EXTREMELY painful.)

Anyway, that's the update. :-) I can't believe I'm almost to the 1/2 way point -- especially considering the longest I've gone thus far was 38 weeks.

  1. Congratulations! I've heard boys are much easier than girls. My sister has a boy and he was the easiest kid ever.
