Well my doc is really cool, and the baby is fine, and he says that it looks like a boy but it could be a girl, when I looked at the screen it looked like a girl, and from the u/s my baby has looonnngg legs and big eyes and a long head (thats my fault). It was cute cuz the baby was punching at the ultrasound thingy. My next appt is on the 25th then I will know for sure what he/she is. This boy drought shall end!!!!!!!!! Lol Laughing

oh and a question if I go to like a kodak picture shop can they make a pic of my u/s pic and put it on a disc cuz that is the only way I can post it and I want yall to see my baby's big eyes.

No, I tried that before. I called and asked and they said no but you could get a digicam and take a pic of a pic! Or one of those cameras that come with a cd and take the pic of the pic. That's what I did with some of my pictures. The one's of me and my bf are pics of pics and ones of me and the cat and the deer are true digi cam pics.

Then again I asked a pharmacy Laughing

, a kodak shop maybe able to, not sure though.

Oh yeah and something the doc said during the appt kinda worried me he said that my placenta looks low but he will see how it goes when the baby is bigger, like its gonna move, I didnt think it could but as long as it doesnt get to be placenta previa i'll be ok.

Well they don't want the placenta to come out first when you are giving birth because then it will separate from your uterus with the baby still in you, cutting off his oxygen supply.

I am sorry newlife I was knocked out after my last response, but I felt the baby move around 15 or 16 weeks reason I say that is cuz I was really taking notes on what was gas and what was not. Lol. Yeah his kicks are getting stronger too, but he moves around a lot at like 1 and 2 in the morning I know this cuz I dont take my butt to sleep when I should. Lol

Dont worry too much about the placenta thing! One of my girlfreinds had that and they told her to come back for a 2nd u/s to check if it moved up and it did.. Sometimes it just takes awhile... Smile
