Scan day with the Prof. 15wks 5d

All looks good. The prof went on to do the usual scanning and measurements of the babies. As usual, the prof did not spare us with his funny off the wall humour and parenting tips. While he was taking the measurements, he failed to mention to me about his ability to identify the sex of the baby. After watching many episodes of CSI, I new the XX referred to females and XY as males where the Y is from the father. So as he tagged XX onto the first baby, I new it was a girl. So happy!!! :-) then while I was out at the loo, the prof scanned the 2nd baby as XX also, another girl. At this point, I started to think about the 3 female trios that I knew and the Charmed sisters came to my mind. Piper, Phobe and Prue. Sharon obviously did not like those names and I don't seriously mean it anyway. I was also kinda praying that the next one would be a XY i.e. Boy not because I prefer any particular gender but because it would be interesting to have a Boy. God answered our prayers and it was a XY. I could not believe it when he said it and I had to ask him a few times and he kept pointing to the baby "noticeable" feature. True enought, there it was. :-) I now have 2 girls and 1 boy. Funny enough is when I told my parents and Sharon told her parents, both dads were happy there were more girls than boys... I wonder why. hmmm... maybe cause Girls would always be Daddy's little girl. So with two I am going to be a very happy Dad and with a Son, a didi or korkor for the girls.

Here's another funny thing. Since all of them are more or less conceived at the same time. (I don't know who came first.. haha) the order in which the babies are delivered determines the older and younger order of the kids. hmm.... and the prof said that the likelyhood was that the girls would be delivered before the boy.. so looks like the boy would have JieJie's instead and they have a DiDi. hmmm......
