I had the official ultrasound. Just a few weeks shy of the customary twenty weeks. I made a stupid decision. You see a co worker overheard me saying they couldn't see the sex of the baby during the last ultrasound, she told me her husband knew a tech who could do a quick peek. I assured her it was fine that I would go in a few weeks to check the sex anyway but she was insistant and I was pretty curious. I went in last week while Quinn was away at Spring training and wish I never had. The tech looked at the baby and casually mentioned that the ventricles in the brain looked enlarged. Lila's ventricles are enlarged. Obviously I was pretty upset. I debated whether or not to tell my doctor and finally made the call a few days later. He decided just to try to put my fears at ease and ordered the ultrasound a few weeks early. Turns out the tech was just seeing things. Everything was in the normal range. Everything looked wonderfully perfect. The doc told me she was looking at everything with a paranoid eye and could not see anything that looked like it should cause concern. We have been feeling very blessed and euphoric. So excited to see this little girl come into the world.
