21 Weeks Pregnant | It's a Girl!!


We had our 19 week scan two weeks ago tomorrow, but I completely forgot to post about it. Sorry!! Anyway, this is the only image they gave us that was even a little bit recognizably human, so it will have to do. Our beautiful little girl kept her face pressed up against the uterine wall the whole hour I was in there, and since ultrasound images are obtained by bouncing sound waves off the baby through the amniotic fluid, the tech was unable to get a very clear picture - there just wasn't enough fluid between her face and my uterus. I'm a bit disappointed that we don't have a cuter (more human-looking) picture of our sweety, but I am just so SO so thankful that she is healthy and in there!! For those of you who don't know, Nick and I struggled with unexplained infertility for four years and had given up trying for a baby when she showed up - a complete surprise. Our little Serenity is most definitely a miracle baby!

Yes, we've settled on a name ~ Serenity
