20 Weeks Pregnant Ultrasound – What Are We Having?

The whole family loaded up in the car this morning for a very exciting 20 weeks pregnant ultrasound!

Weโ€™re one of those sets of parents that genuinely didnโ€™t have a strong preference one way or the other โ€“ as long as this kid is healthy and makes it to term, thatโ€™s all we care about.

Phil, on the other hand, is another story.

Phil has been very much dead set on having a brother. A little boy, that would be the same size as baby Gideon at church. Who would also conveniently be named Gideon.

Josh and I agreed that well, yeah. Having another boy sure would be convenient, because weโ€™ve got all those boy baby clothes in boxes and bags in the attic. Aside from some old clothing samples Iโ€™ve got from my OshKosh B’Gosh days, weโ€™ve got nothing in the way of little girl stuff.

Last weekend was the first time since weโ€™ve told Phil weโ€™re having a baby that he acknowledged that the baby in muhmuhโ€™s tummy might just be a girl.

Thankfully, when I asked him would we still love and take care of it if it was a girl, he said yes.

So with all that under our belts, we rolled on down to Savannah this morning for our 20 weeks pregnant ultrasound!

Iโ€™m totally stalling.

WHAT ARE WE HAVING??!?!

Itโ€™s funny you should ask that, because hereโ€™s what they found when they put the ultrasound wand on my rotund belly:

Thatโ€™s right folks, Iโ€™ve been eating way too many Wendyโ€™s hamburgers. Weโ€™re having a food baby!

But seriously, itโ€™s a girl!

  1. We are so happy and we bet Grandma Carole will spoil her rotten with beautiful clothes.

  2. That’s so Exciting Steph! I’m sure Phil will still be able to play cars with her. Girls are so fun…until puberty. Just call me when it gets around that time and I’ll remind you that you’re not the “WOrst Mother Ever” and that she’ll talk to you again…one day…in about 10 years. But seriously. You’ll get to have a mini Steph! Congrats sweetie!

  3. YAY! Steph, I’m SO thrilled for you regardless, but even more so now that I can give YOU a few hand-me-downs!

  4. Steph – I am so happy for you and your family!! Your story gives us inspiration our journey will turn out as joyful and blessed as yours. Thanks for sharing ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Awwwww thank you Kristin – it’s been a long time coming getting a sibling for Phil to work out, but I’m so glad it’s finally on the horizon. I’ll be thinking of you.
