We had our anatomy scan at 8:30 this morning, we were so excited and nervous about finding out the gender! I really hoped that Baby would cooperate...I've heard that the umbilical cord can often get in the way and make it difficult to get a good shot. The tech revealed that baby was breech, which made it a little difficult to get all the angles and shots the tech wanted. After about 45 minutes she was able to get the "money shot." Kevin was sooooo excited to hear "girl." Anyway...we got to see how much Baby had progressed over the last several weeks.  She has a healthy spine and we could see the kidneys, heart, brain, and more! It was amazing! I get to go back in 4 weeks for another scan, since they couldn't see all her heart chambers and abdomen from how she was laying, but that's okay....I get to see my daughter again!!
