#2 is on the way. Here's a picture of the "positive" results. There's no guesswork here. It will either say it or say you're not. ....The ultrasound technician also said the baby will be a girl. When I checked the chinese calendar it said boy but my due date is 7/5 and I figure I'm going to probably give birth at the end of June (which will then make the prediction for a girl true). This calendar was correct for my first baby. Those of you who have kids can check and see if the calendar is correct for you. I asked if he was sure and he said no one has ever come down to tell him that he was wrong. He also said he saw "labia" ridges -- I'm not sure if you can go wrong there.
I also have the gestational diabetes. I'm banned from sugar until I deliver. It does help keep the weight down but it's no fun at all. I had this w/ my first preganancy too but this time it came earlier so I couldn't eat too much sweets in the first place. I told my sister that I want to have a "sweets" party after I give birth. The fun part about this is that I get to poke myself in the stomach and shoot insulin...three and a half more months...
Congratulations!! Wonderful news! That Chinese calendar is so neat.
And you should definitely have a sweets party after you give birth!!

SO happy for you Joyce! You must be so excited! I can't wait for your new baby to be born! Ok, now the whole no-sugar thing makes sense. I'll send you some sweets in July! And that Chinese calendar was correct for both of my pregnancies.
