Surprise It's a BOY!!

So I had my 16 week checkup on Wednesday and Dr Erickson was measuring the baby, and making sure everything was looking good. He told me heart rate was 150 which was low I thought cause it had always been 170 but he assured me that was normal and the baby was fine. He moved on down to my lower belly cause I have been having a lot of pressure there and he said he is the babies legs and I saw something foreign in between the legs and I just blurted out Oh my God (The Dr knows we really wanted a boy cause Tony had offered to pay him to make this a boy at my first appointment) He smiled and said looks like a boy to me. I couldn't believe it I was in shock but trying not to get to excited I asked him how sure he said 75 percent. 75 percent are we looking at the same picture I clearly see a penis, he said you are only 16 weeks but that is what I'm seeing. By now I'm super excited I know I can't keep this from Tony but can't tell him 75 percent we are having a boy. So Dr suggested I go see Dr Higashijima out in town as they do the 3d ultrasounds, so we set up an appointment for the afternoon. I went and saw Dr Higashijima who is the cutest little Japanese man who must be in his 70's if not 80's, he was so short I think him and Autum were the same size. Anyway we sat down and talked about my pregnancy and my pregnancy with Kayleigh and he started checking the baby and he smiled and said 3 girls this 100 PERCENT BOY, wow this is really happening I thought, Tony is getting his son. The Dr smiled and said everything looked great and I was made to have babies I built like Japanese woman he said smiling very skinny all baby. Which I had been told he would tell me I was fat cause supposedly he says that to all the Americans but not me. He gave me some pictures and a cute little book and a video tape of the ultrasound. He said you leave in May and I said yes and he said he was sorry he'd like to deliver, I told him thank you very much and bowed and we were out the door eagerly waiting for Tony to call. Tony knows he is getting his son and is as shocked as I am but we are both very excited about this new adventure. The ultrasound is a butt shot with 2 legs up in the air and you can clearly see our little man.
