FA scan last Friday

I was really nervous because I didnt feel like LO was moving alot on Thurs but I was trying to remember what the Ob had said that I wont feel regular movements till 26 weeks. Anyway went in for my FA scan - I was the second apptment but the first lady was late so I got to be first. Woohoo! The US sonographer started off the scan and measured what she needed to. While she was measuring I was telling her I had yet to know if its a boy or girl cos in all the previous scans, LO kept hisher legs closed and she said she would check it out for me. LO was measuring at 22 weeks 3 days (I was 21 wks 4 days) and I was so happy cos I like my babies fat! LOL! Anyway she scanned and said its a girl. She showed me a 3D image and I could see LO's face and LO had her hand over her face though I could see her eyes and nose and mouth clearly and the US sonographer so it would not  make a good pix so she didnt take an image for me which I was fine with.

Then my Ob came in and looked at all the measurements and declared he was happy with the progress (praise God) and he confirmed that my LO would be a little girl. I kinda of like knew in my  heart that it would be a girl anyway so its fine with me anyway. Now officially I have Charlie's Angels ( 2 of my kids are girls too, aged 7 and 3) :O)

Funny I was reading a statistic just the other day if you have two children of the same sex the odds are that your third child will be the same is 70%.
