It's a.....

MYSTERY! Stinker was in a bad position to look at "private parts," and despite two long attempts to get baby to move, we had to call it a day. Once s/he moved a little, his/her legs were crossed in front of its privates. It was cute seeing the legs, and we saw it kick (I felt it, too!).

We also got to see the baby swallowing, and cutest of all - grabbing its feet! It apparently loves playing with its toes.

The ultrasound tech told us to come back next Friday and he'll do another quick scan for free, to see if we can find the gender. Bummer to have to wait, but oh well!

All of baby's measurements and internal organs checked out perfectly! That was more important to us than anything.

We talked to our OB about getting extra monitoring, because of my NK cells. My IVF doc and a nurse at the infusion clinic both said how important it is. OB made us feel like jerks, and said she doesnt want to practice "voodoo healthcare." We were like....wtf, we will pay out of pocket. It's ok to disagree, but this is important to us. She reluctantly let us get monthly scans from here on out. So in the end, we won! We're just too lazy and exhausted to think about changing OBs at this point.

I feel like the next 20 weeks are going to fly by! So much to do! I'll try to upload a pic from our scan later. The tech really didn't take any - just a few profile shots. Boohoo. the little feet were so cute! Bummer we didnt get a pic of that one!

PS - I am so embarrassed. I've gained 16 pounds already! I gained 6 in the last few weeks!
