National Day of Miscarriage & Infant Loss

This year the day snuck up on me and I forgot to post yesterday. October 15th is the National Day of Miscarriage & Infant Loss so I just wanted to take the time to remember those who have lost a child/pregnancy. Especially those who I know personally: My sister Heather, my friend Jamie who has lost 2 babies, and my mother in law who has also lost 2 babies. Thank you to all who prayed for me during my own miscarriage this last May. We will be reunited with our babies in Heaven. If you are someone or know of someone who has suffered a loss, please feel free to post a comment and I will pray for you. God Bless!

Early Gender Prediction Test #2

Today I am exactly 10 weeks along, which is the earliest you can do the Intelligender Test. I got this test at our local grocery store when I found out I was pregnant the last time. After we lost the baby, I couldn't bring myself to return it to the store. I've been anxiously awaiting the 10 week mark so I could get an early indication of the gender. We are hoping for a girl, but of course we just want a healthy baby of any gender and already have names for both.

So the 2nd result is...........................GIRL!!!

It was kinda green & kinda orange, so I sent the pic to the Intelligender Customer Service Department, which helps when people aren't sure of the results and this is the email response I got:

Hello,

Based on this picture this is a girl result!

Congratulations and please let us know when you confirm.

So, I still have another 10 weeks until the "big" ultrasound, but it's fun to get a sneek peek at what gender you might be carrying!

Early Gender Prediction Test #1

So I had another ultrasound today to make sure the baby was growing at the right rate and to confirm the due date. I was right on the money and am still due April 20, 2010. I got to see the little "gummy bear" (as the Dr called it) moving around & hear a strong heartbeat. I found a cool website that does gender prediction based on heartrate & it says we're having a girl. I'll be doing another gender prediction test in 2 weeks by Intelligender and we'll see if the results are the same. I'll keep you all updated...
