Do we or don't we?

Do We or Don’t We?

November 20, 2015

Today is the day, I am 18 weeks pregnant and I have an ultrasound scheduled to see what the sex of the babies are. It has taken some time for us to wrap our heads around the fact that we are having twins…let along know what we are having. We tossed and turned about finding out the sex as we were torn but because we had to think of two baby names, we wanted to get a head start on it and not be fumbling at the last minute.

The first baby wasn’t as cooperative as we were hoping, it took a bit of time but once we got the right angle and another million pictures were taken…we discovered our first baby was going to be a boy! We were pretty happy as I had suspected since the day I discovered I was pregnant that I was having a boy.

We then moved on to baby ‘b’, this one was a little more difficult and time consuming. This little one did not want to cooperate…I turned this way and that way and tried to see if I could get the little one to move…but with no avail.

The tech decided to try another technique and low and behold once she did whatever she did, my little one agreed to cooperate. There in all it’s glory was my 20 week old baby, in my belly with it’s legs spread as wide as could be to show us another little penis…I was going to have two little boys.

I can’t tell you the joy I felt when I found out what they were, like I said I would’ve been good with whatever as long as they’re healthy and happy. When the Mr. discovered that we weren’t having a little girl, he was a little upset. I asked him if he was ok and he said yes…just would’ve been nice to have a little princess. I felt horrible after that as I never thought about it that way, I guess it’s true…all daddy’s want a little princess. We discussed trying again after these two are a bit bigger but we agreed this is a conversation for another time. Right now, I just want to focus on the fact that I’m having two little boys…now to start thinking of names.
