We're having a baby girl come September. I'm still in shock, I feel beyond lucky to be given the gift of a little girl! I'm lucky to even just be pregnant when there are so many people in the world struggling to conceive. A mini me is just the icing on the cake. To have a boy AND a girl is the cherry on top.
When found out I was pregnant this time I swore I would never do it again, two was enough no matter the sex but in the back of my mind I thought if we had two boys I would try again, I didn't want too, only because of morning sickness, but I would to have another chance of getting a girl.
This might sound so ridiculous to some people and really selfish, but my whole life I've always imagined having a daughter. The heart wants what it wants.
As soon as those two pink lines appeared on the pregnancy test, I wished for a girl, a healthy baby of course but one with lady bits. I had the feeling it was a girl but I didn't know if it was just wishful thinking, turns out my feeling was right!
The morning of the ultrasound I was so nervous, I'm so glad we made the appointment for 8am, there is no way I would've been able to wait all day. One of the first things our Tech asked was if we were wanting to find out the gender, of course we did but we decided we wanted her to write it down on a card we bought in so we could open it in our own moment with our family. This honestly was the best decision and I so wish we did it the first time.
The 5 second drive home was looonngg. the envelope was burning in my hands. J's mum was at our house watching Seb and we decided to get her to open the envelope. My mum had to work so we had her on speaker phone for the announcement.
'and the winner is...' James' mum gasped, 'A GIRL! IT'S A GIRL!'
I literally started crying and made sure she wasn't tricking me, my mum started crying on the phone and saying she knew it. We were all just in shock, I feel so blessed. Only 21 more weeks (give or take) until we can meet this little angel but for now I'm content with feeling her kicks all day and night.
