Congrats.. I know this isn't your first rodeo.. But U/S are sooo neat. Our little babies are so amazing at this stage! I could have watched her for hours if they would have let me.
 
Has anyone else heard about using a red lightbulb at night to help with a babies's sleep cycle? My step-mom found an article somewhere that said that keeping out white light at night and using red will help babies to sleep through the night earlier and recognize 'night' as the time to sleep.
 
Back from the U/S (and a Sushi lunch, mmmmm!) and everything went great! Saw all the right parts in the right places and baby is measuring right at 19 weeks, so still a Sept 29th due date. They did find out my placenta is in the front of my uterus (anterior placenta) and thats why I havent been feeling much movement- the placenta is blocking those kicks!!

Its still a boy, but thanks for the girl vibes ya'll! I was still holding out a tiny, secret hope that somehow the other U/S's were wrong, but he definately is all boy!! Yes, I'm a bit saddened by that fact, but I am getting over it. I'm getting my tubes tied after this one (6 kids is enough for me!) so there is no hope for another to be a girl- but thats ok, I figure eventually one of my kids will give me a grand-daughter to love on and buy pink things for! I just tell my self how happy I would be if I had had only girls and really wanted a boy this time, and that often makes me really happy (weird, huh?) to know I will be able to raise 5 wonderful boys into men, and I will have the chance to help mold them into wonderful potential mates for some lucky person!

I have no idea about the red light thing, but it sounds like something worth looking into- nice to think I could use a red light to see at night without waking up baby with a brighter, white light.
