I KNEW IT!

To My Baby GIRL,

I knew you were a girl.  From the beginning when I heard your heartbeat.  You were so lively and up-tempo - completely different then your big brother.  Then you gave me crazy acne, terrible stomach pains when I wouldn't eat on your schedule, and continued morning sickness (that has YET to go away) - I knew something was different.  I saw you on the High Risk sonogram and you first started out sucking your thumb, then you waved at us and showed us each little finger of yours.  You really put on a good show.  Your big brother would just hang out and say "hey what's up" very laid back.  You wanted to make your presence known.

I had about a millisecond before the ultrasound tech said "girl" that I saw your parts and knew that you were a girl.  I cried because I was so happy.  EVERYONE is so happy that you are a girl.  I can't wait to meet you and I already have outfits ready to be worn! 

Also - thank you for moving my placenta.  I know it was a great trampoline to jump on or pillow to snuggle, but it's important that it's above you and not below you.  I already got stitched up so there is no sneak peeks before 37 weeks.  So stay in and keep cooking!

I'm happy you are a girl.  I'm happy I'm no longer outnumbered (we don't count the dog).  I'm happy that you are healthy.  And I'm REALLY happy that you are mine.

Love,
Momma
