Introducing Baby #2

Now that I'm 15 weeks along and we were able to find out the gender of our baby yesterday, I decided it's time to finally post about it. We just barely started telling people I'm pregnant because I've had A LOT of anxiety about having another miscarriage. Getting through that first trimester felt like an eternity. My doctor has been fabulous to see me every 2 weeks, so yesterday's appointment was actually my 5th appointment and the 3rd ultrasound. When she asked me at my 13 week appointment if we wanted to find out the gender at our next one, I was pleasantly surprised because I was 24-25 weeks when we found out with Bridget.

It took about 5 minutes before my doctor was able to get the perfect shot. And here it is:
And you can see that she typed on the ultrasound right between the legs - it's a GIRL!

Above is the full body shot. In case you can't tell what you're looking at, the head is on the left and you can see the spine in her torso on the right. She even gave us a little thumbs up while she was squirming around.

We are thrilled to add another daughter to our family and feel very blessed after all the heartache we've gone through trying to make that happen. Other than my anxiety, I've had a pretty easy pregnancy so far. Morning sickness was mild and came in waves (mostly in the evenings) from about 7-13 weeks, and other than that I've just had the typical pregnancy fatigue. But I've never appreciated any of it more.

My official due date is April 2nd, but since I'll either be having a repeat c-section or VBAC, she'll probably be joining us the end of March.
