it's a girl!

We had an early ultrasound Friday and found out we're having a girl! She looked perfect and was measuring exactly right. She weighs about 7 ounces. They couldn't get a good look at her heart because she was face down, so we'll have another ultrasound in 4 weeks. They aren't concerned about her heart, and they saw all 4 chambers, but they'd like to get a better view when she's a bit more developed. They also couldn't get a good profile picture, but we love the photo of her little foot. Hopefully, we'll have a better full body shot after our next ultrasound.

I also found out why I haven't felt any kicks or movement yet. My placenta is situated at the front of my uterus, rather than the back, so I may not feel anything for several more weeks. It's not a problem, though, and if it stays where it is I'll just have a little more cushioning from her big kicks later on.

We spent the weekend picking out bedding and paint colors, starting our baby registry and disassembling the guest room so it can become a nursery. Needless to say, we're very excited!
