So it is official, it's a GIRL!
Although with the "family curse" I should have known! When I started thinking about it, how could I NOT have a girl?
- My grandfather Hickey had 1 brother, 6 sisters
- My grandfather Boulay had 3 brothers, 11 sisters
- Out of all my generation (cousins), there are 10 girls and 3 boys
- Of all the cousins that had or are having babies, there are 6 girls, no boys!
Alas....the next generation of family reunions will also be "pink lettuce" parties!
My sister's twins (due three days before me) are also girls.
Let the princess parade begin!!!
Although, being in the ultrasound clinic made me realise that I am just a bit smaller than the rest of the 19-week ladies, probably about 2 weeks of growth behind....but I am sure I will catch up very soon!
Also a note to all you ladies in NB, you are very lucky, since my hospital does not warm up the ultrasoud gel! They said it might foster bacteria growth....rrrrr.....
Here is the ultrasound, it pretty much looks the same as the 13 week one so I wasn't going to pay the $10 for the pics but they gave them to me. I like the foot one.
I have been practicing my mothering skills with my new buddy, Babo. He is an "uglydoll" that I bought a few months ago for my friend's baby and decided to keep. Here is his photo. Matt does not like him, but between you and me, I think he is jealous.

I just discovered Ugly Dolls yesterday!! And I spent a good part of my day trying to convince my hubby he should buy me 1 or 3, lol!
Congrats on the girl!
Yeah, they are kind of expensive but they are so cute and cuddly! They all have a name and a little bio.
Hey Beth!
Congrats on the girl...they are wonderful little creatures! I hope you're having a good pregnancy....these blogs are great. It's so nice to see how everyone is doing.
Take care

Hi Beth!
Congratulations on being preggers! There certainly will be an estrogen-overload in the Hickey household!!!
Sophie is pregnant again too, and having a girl!
Love this blog idea, I look forward to seeing more belly pics in the future.

Beth...I think you look beautiful. By the way, it is the MALE that determines the sex of the child! Can't wait to meet the Baby....Love...Elaine.
Hey Kendra! What is your email address? What is Sophie's?
