We're having an "IT"

So for those of you who know me, you know that I am not one of those people who waits until birth to find out the sex. No way man, I am all about knowing, I want to buy clothes, mentally prepare, have a name etc. But by no choice of my own I may have to wait until birth to find out. You have no idea what this is doing to me. I feel like my skin is crawling and there is this unsettling feeling inside me not being able to know. We had our ultrasound this morning, baby is healthy (and when it comes down to it that is really the most important) but I still want the sex. The ultrasound tech said it was just too hard to tell the sex of the baby because the umbilical cord was just getting in the way of everything she could see down there. So I think next time I go to the doctor I may ask "do I get another chance to find out?" Maybe he will take pity on me and do a quick sonogram or something. I don't know how people do it who don't find out.
