BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are so excited and thrilled!!!!!! PB is already picturing throwing a baseball in the yard with his little bambino, and I’m imagining all the soccer games I will go to as a soccer mom. I guess I was already planning for a boy since I’ve been creating a sleep fortress in my room every night. π π π
The moment itself was anti-climatic.. Our little fish was swimming around and the tech asked if we wanted to know the gender. We excitedly said “YES!” and she said “oh, it’s a boy.” That’s it! No, congratulations it’s a boy!!!!!! No enthusiasm. Just normal as though she was pointing out an arm or a nose. I’m sure it is just every day stuff for them since they do this all day long, but we were expecting a bit of excitement. No worries though, we had enough excitement for everyone.
PB then admitted that while he would have been very excited for either- healthy baby being #1- he kind of wished for a boy. It makes me even more excited we are having one!
Now we need to go back to the drawing board because, well, we have agreed on 0 boy names so far. The right name will come along I’m sure, but right now that task seems daunting. Instead of thinking names, I’ve been and will be online shopping…
Boy purchase #1: In Italia
Boy purchase #2: This morning on Gap.com
Isn’t it so cute?!?! It’s a little superhero sleeper!
Now go back and read all about 19 weeks and see if I sound like a woman carrying a boy.. I think so? I will say that my friend Kristin was right on with her eyeball test. She says she has never been wrong with it, and in fact she was right with us!
Oh, and in other news.. we are still measuring ahead. We’ve been 7 days ahead all along and now we are up to 9 days. It makes me feel better about my size to know that bambino is really almost 21 weeks instead of almost 20. It also means that most likely we will have a September baby since my real due date is halfway through the month. September babies rule!!!!
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats!!! Happy for you guys!
Congrats!!! I’m with you – we’re starting basically from scratch with boy names – soooo hard! I had a full list of girl names to reuse. Oh well! π Let the shopping begin! GL with the rest of your pregnancy.
Congratulations!!
I think you should name him Jason.
@Definitely not someone named Jason, Creepah!
yay yay !!! congratulations! <3
Congratulations!
And that boy stuff you bought so far is adorable:-).
Yay for boys! Congratulations!!!
And I agree, boy names are so hard We are still struggling to name our son but we have it narrowed down to 2 names and then we are just going to pick one when we meet him. Now, I need to work on his Hawaiian name, which is ridiculously hard!
Congrats! That is so exciting! I am 17 weeks pregnant and we find out in 2 weeks – I CAN’T WAIT!
Congratulations!! Can’t wait to hear some of the names you are debating! All of my favorites are Irish names, and I don’t know how your families would feel about that!
YEY! We were secretly hoping for a boy. They are the BEST!!!!!!Congrats and can’t wait to see you guys. XOXO
Congratulations!##! π
congratulations
OMG I am soooooo excited for you!!
congrats!!
Congratulations!!! Please feel free to ask anything! I tend to overshare anyway and there are lots of posts to come that deal with pregnancy and post-partum goodness : )
Congrats! Little boys are so much fun! Are you going to go with cultural names to represent any of your cultures for your little guy?
YAY! So exciting finding out the sex. π Congrats.
Bummer on the tech not showing more excitment though. That should be a requirement since its such a special moment for the parents.
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! I’m a September baby, they are the best π
Congratulations!
Sure he’ll be as sweet as my little September baby brother. π
Congratulations!!! That is so exciting!! π
Awesome news π
Congratulations! So excited for your news!! Best of everything to you and your little family!
CONGRATS!!! I remember reading you wanted a girl, but I have to say (and maybe I’m biased with a 7 month boy), boys are the best! They are so much fun and the clothes really are insanely cute!
