We’re having a boy!
By RickMeasham | September 20, 2007
It’s been so long since I wrote anything here that there’s a whole pile to say. First and most important of all is that Fatima is pregnant! We have our first child, a boy, due next February 15th.
The past few months have been an excitement of ultrasounds, doctors, obstetricians and planning. The 3D image to the left is the ultrasound at 12 weeks. Tomorrow we go back for the next scan (19 weeks! It’s going so fast!)
I don’t think it’s that common, but we actually picked names for our kids before we got married. I can’t remember, but it may have even been before we were engaged. Now we know it’s a boy, we know what his name will be, though we’re not telling anyone*.
Over the past couple of weeks I’ve painted his room. It’s predominantly blue with a rainbow of pink, gold, green and purple. We’ve bought a white cot, which will look great with the colors, and are on the lookout for a similarly sturdy change table. I’m really amazed at how wobbly most of them are. I’m not laying my boy on a wobbly table!
This is the dating scan they did at about 6 weeks

Hi mate, if you get a chance send me an email. It’d be great to catch-up.
