IT'S A GIRL!!!

We just found out that we are having GIRL!!! Usually I wouldn't know for another few weeks, but my mom was a little anxious to find out so that she could start shopping for the baby, so we went to the place at the mall. The "ultrasound tech" was really great. It seems odd to call him an "ultrasound tech" because he used to be an OBGYN back his home country of Lithuania--I'd say he's well qualified for what he's doing now! He told us he was 200% positive! When we came in she was upside down and by the time we left she was right side up--so he saw it from every possible angle. We couldn't be more excited!--if we were we might explode.
Now, I have been told that the only time that you can know the sex for sure is if it's a boy, but in conversations with others--who I consider a little more experienced (like my doctor and ultrasound tech)--they have told me that that is absolutely untrue. They told me that the only thing that really determines the accuracy is the skill of the person interpreting the ultrasound. Its generally considered easier to see a boy than it is to see a girl, but if that ultrasound tech is sick, or distracted, or tired, or just plain inexperienced they could just as easily mistake a boy for a girl as they could a girl for a boy. Which makes so much more sense to me. In fact, as I've been talking to people I have heard and equal number of both stories (1 where they thought it was a girl and it ended up being a boy, and 1 where they thought it was a boy and it ended up being a girl)--clearly its not something that happens that often. In the end I suppose it really comes down to "Do you trust your doctors?" and I am so glad that I do.
