It's that time folks. Today's doctor's appointment should let us know if we are expecting a boy or girl this March. If not, we have a second ultrasound scheduled in a week that should definitely clinch it.
Cole and I have affectionately taken to referring to the child as "the bump" or "the baby bump" and are both hoping that knowing the gender will make this whole experience seem a little less surreal. Plus it'll be fun to start thinking about nurseries and baby names!
Stealing an idea from a similar post by a friend, here are our personal predictions:
Maura: This mommy-to-be feels like a big slacker. I have no idea what the gender of our baby will be. However, I am a huge sucker for those flower bows the size of your baby girl's head and the idea of a big sister. Although, who wouldn't want a mini-me version of Coleman?
Cole: Lets get real. I am the second oldest in my family. The oldest is my sister Baylee. Maura as well is the second oldest and has an older sister. Maura's older sister, Nicole, just had her first child and its a girl...see a pattern? Well, I think its about time the pattern is broken. My prediction is a boy to buck the trend. Our families are due for a boy to be the first.
Our officially, not official poll is located to the right. What do you think it will be?

I'm gonna go with baby boy bump. I think Cole needs a playmate, though the idea of large flowers on headbands does sway the vote some.
Wow I had no idea you were expecting, CONGRATS!!! I hope you're feeling ok, especially during all those renovations and all, how exciting!!
Hello!!!?! Congrats on being pregnant! I had no idea. I say girl...since I love having 2.
Yay for finding out!! I'm guessing a girl...either one will be soo fun.
oh congrats! this is so exciting...can't wait to hear the news!
Based on both of your responses, it's a boy. Here is how I got there. My wife is the oldest, girl. Second oldest, also girl. My oldest sibling is a girl. Second oldest, yup, also girl. My dad's oldest, girl. Second Oldest, also Girl. Mom's oldest, girl... I could keep going, but you see my point. It's a boy!
Maura!!! congrats!That is so exciting. I say boy!
I forget your pregie! I am so excited for you guys!
Finally an official, not-so-announcement-like baby post. Very sly. I say girl. History repeats itself!
How exciting! I didn't even know you were pregnant, congrats! I vote for a boy, but I'm biased 'cause I'm due with our second one in Jan. :)
Ahhhhh CONGRATS!! I had no idea either! that's awesome!!!
Um.....CONGRATS!!! How totally awesome is this little secret!! Major congrats. I am gonna say boy....

What? I had no idea you were even pregnant! Congrats, I voted boy...because that is what I am having and he has been super fun to prepare for!
first of all congrats to you guys!! We are so excited for you!! And can't wait to see you in December, and the cute baby bump you will have, hope the pregnancy is going well for you!! I think little girls are great!!! I'm all for the big bows, Caroline wears them everyday!! miss you!!
Congrats! I didn't even know you were pregnant and you are already 19 weeks along! I hope that you are feeling good. I can't wait to see some cute pregnant pictures! I am just going to say a healthy baby - as long as they are healthy that is all that matters!
What? I didn't know you were pregnant! Congrats! That is awesome! I vote it is going to be a girl.
I must have completely missed this announcement that you guys are expecting!! Congratulations!!!
WHAT!?!???!?! How did I miss that you are pregnant!!!!!!!!! Thanks for informing the former PR campaigner member... I could have sent out a mass newsletter or put together a cutsie slogan and letterhead!! haha, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I'm so excited for you two, I can't believe it! Hope you're not feeling too yucky although it sounds like you're pretty much into your second trimester! Well, since I only know how to raise girls obviously and I'm a sucker for the big bows/flowers and frilies on their outfits too, I'm voting a girl. Congrats again, and your house is looking darling!!! You have such a great eye when it comes to rennovating!
