We had our midway ultrasound today. Both Grandmas, Nakiah, Corey and myself got to say hi to baby today and watch him/her squirm around. At one point baby even kicked/jumped/punched so hard that the ultrasound tech felt it. So, technically, she was the first person (other than myself) to feel the baby move....sorry daddy! Baby was moving quite a bit so we actually got to watch for quite a while. Baby was even sucking his/her fingers at one point and had his/her hand and arm by his/her face almost the entire time. The ultrasound tech said baby is growing right on schedule, measuring 18 weeks 4 days and weighing in at approximately 9 ounces. Baby's heart rate was 155, which is a bit higher than the numbers they have given me at my OB's office.
Today's ultrasound and a couple other incidents have changed my mother's mind....she now believes we are having another girl. **WARNING** She also believed Nakiah to be a boy for most of my pregnancy! :-) On the flip side, just to confuse you a little more - Corey is convinced he may have seen "evidence" of a baby boy in mommy's belly. **WARNING** Corey and I both thought we saw the same "evidence" during Nakiah's ultrasound.

Oh' shucks. I've been waiting! Good luck with the name thing--that is never fun. It took us weeks/months to name Jacob. How you feeling?
I'm guessing another girl! :)
Hope you're feeling good. I can't believe you're 1/2 way already!
