Here it goes

 So today was my ultrasound. I have been looking forward to this day since I found out i was pregnant. Gary has been really hoping for a boy, and well, so have i. So we go to my appointment and the tech starts the US. The baby is all moving around, looking like it was trying to make snow angels in my belly. Well she starts doing the measurements and all making sure everything is OK, and the more she pushes, pokes, and shakes my belly, the more the baby starts to curl in to what else, but the fetal position. By the time she says, OK lets find out what your having the baby is totally over letting us see it. So not only am I now sour, but the tech says she thinks I'm having a girl. .. . ..Now don't get me wrong. I so don't care if i have a boy or girl, just a healthy happy baby with all ten fingers and toes. I just am, well, i guess disappointed. Not just for the fact that it "might" be a girl, but because i have no real way of knowing. .. . ..Ive never not been able to know and it frustrating. .. . ..So I just got back from Books A Million and was looking at baby names for a girl, since i have had my boy name picked out since November... . ..and I feel like a dork, cause i got through all the girl names, still didn't have even one name that i liked, and i was balling my eyes out.  Gary walked by and asked me what was wrong and when i told him he was no help at all, MEN! I guess this is kinda a vent of my day. .. . .. but i dunno. I'm trying to make this feeling go away, but I'm kinda stuck in this rut and will probably cry the rest of the night. .. . ..

I have always found that the name we pick last is what I seem to have.  Has happend with all 3 of my kids so far.  Once again I have my boys name picked and no girls name.  Good luck mama!

I feel for you!

I was told I was having a girl, but I didn't believe it!  My mom had 4 girls, so I was convinced I'd have all boys.  Didn't pick out a girl name or girl clothes or anything.  Then, of course, I had a girl. 

I didn't name her till 1/2 hour before we were released from the hospital.  LOL

The nurses were REALLY helpful.  They even gave me a list of girl names, which is now proudly displayed in my dd's baby book.  I ended up going with the first name I had tossed around, although I changed the spelling  a bit.

hehe i was told i was having a boy but i knew other wise that i was having a girl so i never could find the right name for her and when she was born i looked at her and said Amber her name is Amber so hubby chose her middle name and its Selah so she is Amber Selah, My Middle Daughter i was convinced she was a boy so i chose the name Aidan Dylan as her dad is Andrew Dustin we never got to find out her sex as she was a brat and wouldnt let us see so we called her Aidan the whole preg when she was born i was that used to Aidan we change the name around to Ayden Dieon, And my oldest always knew she was a girl and i wanted a really wierd name for her and because im scottish i wanted a name that no one else had in my town, Hence the Mackenzie n Kelly after my Aunt died, Now every where i look and in my own town i started the trend Mackenzie for a girl hehe
