Mae has been very adamant that she doesn't want to know what the sex of her baby is. I wouldn't be able to not know, but I thought it was so cool that they actually were going to wait. then last week i went to meet them at the ultrasound place, and when i got there mae was lying there with the gel on her tummy and you could see the TINY BABY on the screen. it really is a cool thing to look at, you get to see its little spine and its little hands and its giant brain.
then the doctor accidentally told them the sex, which cast a bit of a pall over everything.
(doctor (not looking at mae and dan): do you know what the sex is?
mae and dan: no
doctor (still peering irritatingly at screen): it's a boy, yes?
dan and rosa: OH GREAT MAE'S GOING TO FREAK OUT.
mae: gales of laughter)
so it was all okay, and now they are extra excited and pleased.
