We woke up late and started the day rushing up and down the hallway getting ready. &nbsp;No idea what happened to Stephen's alarm. &nbsp;Stephen needed to be on the base for an appointment 50 minutes before mine, so we jammed out the door &amp; raced to the base making it just in time. &nbsp;A cappuccino &amp; a chocolate cornetto for him and about one liter of water for me later, we were walking in the door to the Radiology department. &nbsp;I couldn't help but giggle. &nbsp;The lobby was decorated in all pink for Breast Cancer Awareness month, complete with balloons, streamers, small squishy breast key chains as learning aids. &nbsp;I looked at Stephen in his blue zip-up sweater and laughed again..."look, all pink, honey."

So, the important details...everything with the baby looks great. &nbsp;Strong heartbeat, normal growth in all areas, organs look good, no cleft palate, no spina bifida that they could see, and the standard number of finger and toes. &nbsp;The first thing the baby did on-screen was give a few big yawns. &nbsp;Then practiced swallowing &amp; lolling its tongue about, then decided to tickle its knees and wriggle around. &nbsp;(We are going to have our hands full with this one.) &nbsp;Also our due date was confirmed for 12 MAR 2011; I am at twenty-one weeks today.

And the detail everyone is probably most waiting for... (kudos if you didn't skim down to here first). &nbsp;The voting is *now* closed. &nbsp;The totals were 13-17-01 with girl clenching the popularity vote. &nbsp;<strong>Annnnnd...if you thought pink, then you thought CORRECTLY</strong>. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;Team Oswald's "plus one" is definitely a girl. &nbsp;For those of you saying "Really? &nbsp;Are you sure??" yes we are sure. &nbsp;We got a clear peek. &nbsp;You'll just have to trust us. &nbsp;I haven't broken the news to the cats, but I doubt they will care as much as I do that the balance of females to males just leveled out a bit more today.

My apologies to anyone that was waiting on the edge of their seat for the news and wondering why it took until 1530 to post. &nbsp;Immediately after the appointment in Radiology, I was feeling awful. &nbsp;Back pains like the devil, shortness of breath, and a bad feeling inside (my organs felt poisoned, if that makes any sense). &nbsp;All I had to eat/drink was a banana and that liter of water and all I did was go to that appointment. &nbsp;The radiologist felt that it might be from the poking and prodding, but after a few trips to the bathroom and an hour of time I ended up in the OB-GYN. &nbsp;They made sure I wasn't having contractions and that the baby's heartbeat was still going strong, then they hypothesized that it might be a kidney infection. &nbsp;All I came in here for was that one appointment; I felt I was getting much more than anticipated. &nbsp;In the end, I felt better and the docs sent me home. &nbsp;They did some tests and will let us know if they find anything new. &nbsp;I am so thankful that Stephen stayed with me...no idea that was going to happen. &nbsp;Stephen is now at work and I am at home resting up a bit. &nbsp;*happy sigh*
