19wks0days -- She's already stubborn...HAS to be a girl!

Here is the update for 19w from Pregnancy Weekly:

"Your baby weighs approximately 7 ounces and is about 5.2 to 6 inches from crown to rump. The exterior layers of skin tissue are developing to form your baby's one-of-a-kind fingerprints. The amniotic fluid that surrounds your baby allows for the free movement of the arms and legs and is also sometimes swallowed to practice digestion."

I'm more than convinced that we are having a girl. I already know she's stubborn! Brad felt her move for the 1st time on Feb 13th (although he is still not convinced he felt her) and she's been doing her baby aerobics off and on all day for me...but the minute I put his hand on my belly she goes still. As if she is already letting us know she is calling all the shots. LOL! Oh, she's definitely my little princess!!

We'll know in just 9 days!!!!! I'm so excited to just see her again!

Edit (9pm):
Brad felt the baby kicking away tonight!!!

We had just got done watching American Idol and I was in a really giggly mood because the auditions were super funny tonight.

Anyways, I felt her moving around (she was the most active she's ever been today!!) and asked Brad if he wanted to try to feel (thinking he wouldn't be interested cuz we've had such little luck). And insted of laying his hand on my belly...he put his ear to it. Well...looking down on his head pressed to my belly was too much, so I started laughing. It looked so funny...like those old movies where the Indian lays his ear to a traintrack to see if ones coming! Anyways...he's all, "Stop laughing!!" and then I tried to stop, but then he pressed his ear to my belly again and started laughing himself...so that got me going. Well...we tried this a few more times and by then I'm laughin hysterically. He said he thought he could hear here a little...but I didn't feel anything.

Then all of a sudden she kicked really hard in the front and I quickly put his hand there and she did it again and he felt it right away. Then he put his ear to my belly again and she kicked his chin!!! He started laughing and said to her, "Hey, you kicked your pappa in the chin!!!" and pointed out where he kicked her. (it was adorable!) He felt her kick a few more times w/ his hand...it was really neat!!
