all I have to say is that I'm glad I found out BEFORE I bought the yarn to make my "nieces" baby blankie...that my niece is not a girl but a boy....confused? we are too!!!
Pebbles had an ultra sound around her thought to be 5 month mark (she's 6 1/2 to 7-ish now, due early January) and the technician said "its a girl" so our Parents and everyone has been buying a TON of girl stuff......they also had issues with the baby's weight and size they said was due to gestational diabetes... hmmm
the deal is, when she first got preggers she figured her due date to be in december, she announced her pregnancy in May when Raquel graduated from College... THEN (after announcing it) she went to the "free clinic" so she could get on WIC and get free prenatal care because they didn't have insurance from his work... (yea, i know... not smart!!) he got smart and got them on insurance and they continued to go to the free clinic until it kicked in (always a waiting period...) the free clinic agreed with her at first that she was due in december, middle of december, and scheduled an ultrasound. 2 months later they say she's having a girl... and due in mid january... a whole month later!
so if you're confused you're not alone because I'm confused too!!
thier insurance finally kicked in and they went to the private practice doc who said that they thought her due date was late december... and wanted to do an ultrasound. which was today. which determined her due in early january and having a boy instead of a girl.
i have no idea what's going on or what happened...I'm just as confused as everyone else... but I guess maybe I can sneak in a Camo baby blankie since its a boy.... *I* think that she's gonna go into labor and she's gonna have twins a boy and a girl and one of em is going to be a month older than the other... she was just recently off the pill and her body hadn't had the chance to regulate itself properly when she got pregnated... its happened before!!!
so that was the hilariously great news today. i'm gonna have a nephew instead of a niece... they had her name, i mean HIS name, picked out and everything and it took them months to do it...I hope they can decide on one before HE comes to term!!!
(ps, I started the Yellow last night shortly before we went to bed...I will have this project done by christmas!! i will!!!)
Can I come over for some chili and pumpkin pie? YUM!
ReplyDeleteWow that is seriously crazy about the mixup. Unreal! Well hopefully everyone can return the pink stuff. oops.
ReplyDeleteThese are the reasons why I never 100% fully trust ultra-sounds! I was suppose to be a boy, my friend was suppose to be a boy and we are both girls! My grandma's cancer doctor's wife (who was also a doctor) had twins and never knew they were having twins because of the way they were laying on every ultrasound and their heartbeat was in perfect unison. I know people thought I was weird when I was pregnant for my son and I would respond to that ultimate question, "we think it is a boy." Till it came out and I could confirm, I wasn't 100% behind it!
ReplyDeleteRegardless.....Congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteThey told me the 2 year old was going to be a boy but then at the last utlra sound it turned out she was a girl. You can't rely on technology. lol Camo is good for a boy or a girl. We dress the little one in camo but then again we might be rednecks...lol
ReplyDeleteKat: of course you can! any time you want :)
ReplyDeleteBayjb: yea its hilarious...I teased her she was gonna have a pink clothed boy!!
J'Lynn: honestly i'd be the same way and probably buy neutral stuff until it popped out and then frantically have Joe go out and buy it all while i'm in the hospital!!! hahaha
Mejis: we're rednecks too...all my kids will probably be decked out in camo as well!!
