Apparently,
determining the gender of your baby during an ultrasound is against the law here. A friend here told me that this is due to the
prevalence of “female feticide” (the aborting of baby girls due to families not
wanting to pay a wedding dowry of a bride more so than merely preferring to have a son). The hospital that we visited today is Catholic, so they do not ever perform abortions or terminate pregnancies since they are highly pro-life. Thank God for that! However, even though we are highly pro-life we cannot find out whether our Little M&M (baby's nickname) is a boy or a girl until we leave the country on a visa run.
Here is a picture of our Little M&M's amazing smile... (s)he was yawning in this picture, but they shot the picture when his/her mouth was nearly shut. (S)he should be yawning! (S)he is quite the roly-poly wiggler! It took forever for the ultrasound doctor to get a still shot of him/her! It was quite a happy day!
