the maybe?

I think it's finally happened... the nausea is going away. Unfortunately it's been replaced by daily headaches but you know... you can't win them all!
Anyways. I had a doctors appointment yesterday at 9.30 am. I showed up early since I was late the last time I was there and since I had decided to walk there. The walk was much quicker than anticipated mostly because I found a nice back entrance through the woods on the side of Mount Royal. So early I was. I went and sorted out my hospital card since I had gotten a new medical insurance card since my last visit and then I went upstairs... or is it downstairs... that building is confusing. The entrance is on the fourth floor and my doctor on the second so downstairs it is.
I checked in at the reception weighed myself and left them a nice pee sample then I settled down in one of their uncomfortable chairs to read some school work. It was 9 am.
At around 10.30 I got to go in to see the nurse and answer all the regular questions and so on. I then went back to the waiting area to wait for the doctor. At noonish I had finished my school work and was getting seriously stressed out because I had promised I'd pick up W from daycare at 1 pm. I called J who gave me an earful about how important it was for him to be early for work and how useless I was being waiting for the doctor to see me. I hung up on him and turned the phone off. I then spent some time fantasising about drop kicking that stupid woman hogging my doctors precious time. At 12.25 I called J back and told him I would try to reschedule my appointment, he told me not to since I had already spent all day waiting around. I hung up on him again because I was finally being called in to see the doctor.
Once in the office I calmed down a bit and after answering some questions and talking about my headaches I was told to get on the bed so he could do a quick scan... A scan again I got to see my baby again so soon!
I was very excited and told my doc how much I want to know if it's a boy or a girl. He asked me what I thought it was. I lied and told him it's probably a boy (I secretly thought it was a girl but I didn't want to let myself hope). He laughed and said I didn't sound too excited about that. I told him the truth that since I already have a boy it would be a lot of fun with a little girl and besides since I'm only having two kids if I have a boy this time I will never have a little girl.
He laughed some more and told me that he does not think it's a boy. He thinks it's a girl. He then showed me the three white spots that are connected by a thin white line that are supposedly tell tale signs that the babe is in fact a girl.
It's probably a GIRL!

Now J takes this news as "alright it might be a girl but I'm not convinced" whereas I am more in the "oh my gosh it's a girl it's a girl"
We'll find out with a little more certainty in 5 weeks at our second scheduled ultrasound with the ultrasound technician but until then I will be browsing the girl section at the baby store!
To keep you guys from getting too bored with my ramblings I have also posted a couple of photos.

Oh and another thing. Since Friday last week we are now a pacifier free house! It's been better than anticipated and W has been a real champ.
