Dear Baby (13 weeks, 2 days)

(12 weeks)

Dear Baby,

What are you doing in there?  Sometimes this whole experience doesn't even seem real because I can't feel you yet and I don't have a baby bump.  I wish I could feel you in there so we could check in with each other every day.  I have waited so long for you and I cannot believe you are finally here, growing inside me.  Your daddy and I are so excited.  I cannot even tell you how thrilled all our family and friends are to meet you.  You are going to be one LOVED baby.  Keep growing and dancing!

Love,
Mom

P.S. We take our first plan ride together tonight to visit your Aunt Cobe in Chicago.  Of course your mommy got herself all stressed out reading about the dangers of full body scanners.  You just stay put in there!

  1. Hi Megan Its Annie, I was just reading your blog, what a great idea to keep track of your pregnancy! It's amazing how much do you forget after its over. I was wondering of you have ever heard of the "nub theory" lol well apparently you can predict the gender of your baby from the 12 week ultra sound by the angle of the nub down by the leg. I'm no nub expert at all lol but to me it looks like the nub is parallel with the spine so I guess girl! There is a fun website called ingender.com with a gender prediction forum so many ladies post their nub shots and some are pretty good at explaining their predictions, some are ultra sound techs. anyway of course it's just fun!

    1. Hi Annie! I have never heard of the nub theory... I totally agree that it seems like I may be growing a little girl. I just told my husband about it and I'm sure he is all worried now that I've dashed his chances for a boy, haha. I really don't feel like I have a gut feeling either way at the moment. Did you have a gut feeling with your girls? Congratulation on the new little girl you have on the way!! So exciting!!!

  2. I totally felt like Kammie was a girl, so much so that I was calling my belly Kammie. But for Sophie and this one I didn't really feel strongly either way. And each of my pregnancies have been different so never followed the old wives tales about gender. This was the first time we ever found out early what it Is, I kind of wish we would have waited again! Well even though my opinion is 100% bias having a little girl is AMAZING and of course my husband was rooting for a boy but he loves his little girls they are his world, and actually have some of the same interests as him like pirates, playmobils, and Kammie loves looking a his coin collection.

    1. It's interesting that you knew with Kammie but not with Sophie or this current little lady. I can't believe you were able to not find out the sex. My husband and I are dyingggg to know. I think maybe for baby #3 I would be willing to keep it a surprise, but who knows. I know we will be excited no matter what the sex of this baby is. He/she is such a blessing and we couldn't be happier. I would really love to see Kevin with a little girl though, so sweet.
