Baby Boy Milman

It's official, the baby is a boy! We had our 20 week appointment a week early today, 19 weeks, to make sure the baby is growing and developing properly. And he is! His heart, spine, organs, etc. look great. And all his fingers and toes do too, what a relief!

He looks super cute to me - ha ha, but of course I am biased. I don't think he looks like Joshua though and I think he's going to look more like his Dad than Joshua does. Below is a picture of Joshua around the same gestational age.

What do you guys think? None the less, Kevin and I are so excited. And I keep thinking, "wow, me and my boys!" Since I ended up having the emergency c-section with Joshua, I'll go ahead and have a planned c-section with baby boy Milman too. They will schedule my c-section for 39 weeks and in the next month or two we'll nail down the date and time. I pray and hope that I'll make it to 39 weeks. I keep thinking I'm going to get sick again and stress myself out and make my blood pressure rise which then makes me think that I'm getting pre-eclampsia again. My OB says that the liklihood is small so I'm hoping she's right! Once I relax, the BP is back to normal - they call it white coat syndrome.

Joshua is going to be happy too since he keeps saying he wants the baby to be a boy. He says he wants a brother and calls the baby, "baby Jake" although Jake isn't a name we're considering, but Jacob is.
