    When you go to the first ultrasound, you and hubby will both have tears of joy. It's when it's finally real. That's how we reacted. I'm so happy for you.

    We already had our first ultrasound 3 weeks ago. You're right, it was an amazing experience. We just couldn't stop smiling. Seeing the baby for the first time is what makes it feel 'REAL', and its just so amazing to think there is a tiny little person growing inside of us. Those little ultrasound 'glimpses' are incredible.

    Do you remember what they do at the second appointment? I heard they won't do an ultrasound again until they check for the gender.

    At most appointments after the first one, they just do basic stuff--check your weight, urine sample, and check the baby's heartbeat with the Doppler. It gets to be very routine, as long as all is going as it should. Hearing the hearbeat is pretty amazing every time, though.

    Congratulations, dear. Many happy wishes for all your family.

    Congratulations, that must have been exciting! You and Sprout will be in our prayers. Don't get your hopes up too high about finding out the gender in 5 weeks - some babies are just shy and refuse to reveal such details!

    Oh, I hope our baby won't be shy during the ultrasound. The doctor did tell us that they don't truly do the ultrasound for the purpose of seeing the gender, and if the baby hides its little secret from us, they won't be calling us back for another ultrasound...unless we need one for something else! So...if s/he hides, we most likely won't know until s/he enters this world. Too long for me to wait patiently.
