Baby
We had our first Peruvian ultrasound today. The baby is healthy and weighing in around 2 1/2 lbs. Here is a pic of his/her face! (The arrow is pointing to his/her forehead and you can see the two hands next to the face.)
Boy or Girl?
Since I am now in my third trimester, my pregnancy is obvious to all who see me. As soon as they confirm that I am indeed pregnant, people ask the inevitable…boy or girl? Since Jon and I don’t want to know, people usually decide themselves what we are going to have. Here in Peru I get told “volteense” (turn around). Apparently if you can’t tell someone is pregnant from behind, they are having a boy. If you can tell, they are having a girl. I have been told by many to expect a girl. I don’t know whether or not to be insulted that you can tell from behind that I am pregnant! So, what do you think…boy or girl? God and our obstetrician only know!
