Knowing I am so close makes it more real, especially since I still havnet had a STRANGER notice or say anything if they have.

I have an idea for EXPOSING the gender so to speak, tell what you think. I can have two small containers. One Pink or girly and one blue or boyish. Upon arriving each person writes their name down on ONE piece of paper ONLY and puts it in the container of the gender they suspect. Also make sure there is a sign for anyone that knows (MIL and a couple of my RL friends that figured it out when we we’ve been shopping — it’s HARD not to look at a particular color less than another.) they keep quiet and dont spill the beans.

I later tally things up and make sure no one voted both ways and draw a name from the CORRECT container….That person will get a prize and announce what gender they voted.

My mom and sister are scaring me!! They are wondering if MAYBE I am having twins that are one behind the other and thats why we didnt see anything that looked REMOTELY like a penis and another girl is saying that maybe it IS A girl but shes REALLY swollen.

I DOUBT it’s twins. . .I think they would have noticed a second heart beat or foot or SOMETHING!!!

No one thinks I am having twins because of size for sure, they think its twins because of the gender differences. . Most people think I am due sometimes next year.

From a friend:

Hi everyone…
Priscilla just called me and wanted me to tell you all the great news

her and charlie went to another U/S today and guess what??????

It’s a William, not a Chloe

And my post:

Yes! I have a little PRINCE!!!! I was soooo surprised and just as happy of course

I only made it to Beal’s and Target (I couldnt find one of my MALL receipts so I put the mall of until tomorrow — I DID FIND THE RECEIPT )

Prince William was TOTALLY showing his stuff. . .

The doc was measuring and looking around and asked if we wanted to look between the legs . .. well, DUH, we want to confirm the gender. . .

So of course we told him YES!!

Well he said, it’s a good thing we are looking again because thats not a girl!! DH even spotted it and he’s rarely seen U/S pics

my little man isnt shy. Yes we were very surprised!! MY eyebrows were definitly raised and we were both smiling (happy either way of course) and shocked BEYOND all belief!!

It will be funny to tell him that mommy, Daddy and all mommy’s online friends called him Chloe for 8 weeks.

As for his name:

Arthur is DH middle name and William is KINDA sorta my dad’s name. . . Well Billy is but baby will Be Will or William NOT willy or Bill or Billy (I have a brother and an Uncle named Billy)

Anyways my dad’s name is realy Benjamin, but for some reason his nieces and nephews ALWAYS called him Uncle Billy . . . I’m not a HUGE fan of Benjamin “ben” (sounds a bit old manish and besides I have a half brother named Benny  ) so I decided to go with my dad’s “other” name

I ordered my bassinet and a boppy cover that Target never seems to have in the store with the gift card!! If my target carried that stuff I would have had some $$ left over but shipping ate the rest.

I will probably go pick up my pack n play soon as well. . . I have $55 on another card (should be $60 but the person either only put 15 on the card or Target screwed them out of $5  )

  Saturday we made it to Dallas and just hung out, shortly after dinner we got ready for a play. .. that was AWESOME!! It was called “THE ALLERGIST WIFE”. It was sooo funny

Okay I talked to the anesthesialogist and he said that he has dealt with cases like mine before hates to use general

I am going to try and get old X-rays for him because he said it would make things easier.
I just need to keep in mind that I need to prepare for general if he cant get things to do what he needs them too
