Raphael's And Stcolette's Official Shameless Bragging Thread

[Thy Geekdom Come]

Jennie (StColette) and I would like to introduce to the world God's first blessing on our new family, who will be named either Mary Catherine or Aaron Michael. As this indicates, we do not know the sex.

[size=7]If anyone is trained well enough to tell the sex, please don't tell us![/size]

Thank you for your courtesy. Please pray for our family as we grow.

God bless,

Micah

I'm not sure they can always tell at 14 weeks anyway, but you have nothing to fear from me - I can never tell from looking at ultrasounds. I do love that you got the baby sucking his/her thumb.

[prose]

I think I can tell... but for the record, I have been wrong 100% of the time that I have EVER guessed gender. Always. Not one right. Ever.

So Maybe I just know what it is not.

Ah, the apophatic approach to sexual anthropology.

Wow. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

I can't tell what sex your baby is. I can barely tell in adults.

I love your name choices! Congratulations and God Bless you and your most precious little growing gift.

Thank you

[samfran08x3]

YAY!! its growing up so fast!!!

[dUSt]

I don't think you're going to have a boy or a girl... from these pictures, it looks like you're going to have a peanut.

I hope the baby gets some color at least...it would be awkward to have a black and white baby crawling around.

While I may be only a simple country doctor <snaps suspenders>, I believe you mean an orange.

Actually, in the one where s/he's upside-down...kinda looks like an alien...

[AngelofMusic]

Well I think it looks like a BUFFALO.

And the peanut thing I can see too... *turns head to side* It's kinda like looking at a Van Gogh painting. Or an abstract. *rubs imaginary goatee* Very very interesting......

[littlesister]

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Prayers and joy, of course. God bless

Yeah, I am pretty sure even the ultra sound techs can't figure it out at this stage. Then usually wait until around week 20 to take a stab at figuring out what the baby's sex it.

The pictures are great Micah and Jennie. Amazing to see your little one moving around on that screen, isn't it?

Yeah, it's incredible! It's so much easier to see tell what everything is while the baby's moving, too...it's like you look at it and at first you can't make anything out, and then WHAM! the baby moves and it all comes to life and you can see everything...so cool.

My dad told me it's a boy. I said, "what gave you that impression, the fact that it has eyes and a mouth?"

yep We watched the baby use its arms as flippers to swim/move around on Monday. It was amazing watching the baby reach up its little arm and bring it down to his/her face and start sucking his/her thumb.
