Today we decided to find the gender of our baby. We are going to Obgyn. We keep arguing over what to call it. So this will help us out a lot.
He thinks it's a girl and I think it's a boy. We will find out who is right. I honestly don't care if it is either. As long as he or she is healthy. The doctor is coming to our place today. I want to do a home birth meaning I have a mid wife. Her name is Rebecca. She has done this job for over ten years. She has done hundreds of at home deliveries. She is the best of the best according to Seth. He found her a few months ago. We both want to do a home birth. This is our first child so we want to do the best we can do for it.
There is a ring at our door. I open it and it's Rebecca and our Obgyn.
"Welcome to my home. Thanks for doing a house visit." I say with glee. She hands me a hospital gown and I go to the bathroom to change. I put it on and I look like a grape. I walk out and on to my birth room. We have been slowly putting it together. It looks nice and we also bought a nice hospital bed. We have been staying at my apartment because it's bigger than his. We plan on moving in a year or so to a house we will build. I can't wait for it to all come together.
The gown is a two piece. It has a top and some shorts. I walk into the room with as much grace I could muster.
She gets the gel and tools out. She squeezes the gel onto my belly. It's cool so I shiver. She places the wand on it and slowly moves it. We can see a lump and hear a heart beat.
"She is doing great." Tears fill my eyes.
"She?" I question.
"Yeah, it's a girl." Both of us have tears threatening to come out at any moment.
He kisses me and then my belly.
"My girls." He says with a smile that makes my heart melt.
