Confirmation

Yesterday we had another doctor's appointment and ultrasound. Sure enough, Baby Shulse is definitely a girl!

Though we did not get the 3D/4D ultrasound (and I'm still wishing I had), she looked so much more baby-like this time. We were able to clearly see her "3 lines," her facial features, her movements...all of it! And frankly, she looks pretty cute, if I may say so myself! :)

She is starting to fill out more and no longer looks like an alien. Hooray! Her face seemed so clear, with her little nose (can't tell whose nose she has yet), defined chin (looks like Jesse's chin to me), and her sweet eyes opening and closing. It was as if she was looking right at us and her eyes were blinking as if we were having a normal conversation. The ultrasound technician even saw fuzzy hair on her head...which might explain the heartburn, if the old wive's tale is true! All this to say, we were both beaming, very excited, and in love already.

Baby Shulse weighs approximately 3 lbs 15 oz; right under 4 lbs. My measurements, weight, blood pressure, etc are all "perfect," and my due date is almost exact. I know we are getting closer, but it still seems so far away. Let's hope time flies by...I'm ready to get this little girl out of there! May 25, here we come!
