12w5d update

I saw Dr Rowe (peri) today for my 12 week screening u/s and bloodwork since my OB doesn't do it. Everything looks really good on the u/s and the nuchal fold measured at 1mm, so that looks perfectly normal. I was able to see the little face, hands, crossed legs, belly, stomach full of amniotic fluid, etc. The heartbeat was a wonderful 167 bpm. The tech asked if I wanted to know if he could tell what the baby is. Of course, I said yes! He told me it's only about 80% accurate at this point but that baby looks like a little boy! We have thought that from the beginning so I was not suprised at all! He said he could tell as soon as he started the u/s so I'm pretty sure it's right. When Dr. Rowe came in he said that they say 80% but he's showing off for us and he's going to say he's 80+% sure it's a boy. It was so neat getting to see that today, I was not expecting it at all! I called Mike on the way home and told him all about it. He's out of town for work so he missed it. I go back in 5 weeks for more bloodwork and then 6 weeks for another u/s. Plus I see my OB in 2 weeks for my next appt. I'm not sure if they'll still do an 18 wk u/s at their office or if they'll just go by the next one with Dr Rowe. I have a bunch of pics from today that I'll scan in at my Mom's tonight and post later!
