Day 111: G-Day

So we've learned the gender of our baby. I'm withholding the information for the time being 'til I'm sure certain family members (and readers of this blog) don't wish to wait until it's born.

More important than the gender, though, we learned that the baby is healthy. Obviously, that's the key piece of information we wanted coming into this ultrasound.

One interesting fact: turns out Mary hasn't gained any weight since our first appointment eight weeks ago. It's weird because she's definitely showing a little bit. I think Mary's recent exercise and healthy eating is balancing her natural weight gain from pregnancy. Whatever the cause, it's not a problem yet, but our doctor says it might be a good time for Mary to try to increase her caloric intake. She recommends ice cream.

How often do you get a dietary free pass from a doctor? Nice! All great news today.
