That's right-- IT'S A BOY!!! We got to see our little Braden Lee today and he has all his parts and everything is in the right place! He was moving all around and playing peek-a-boo with us! We are so in love!! We have some great pics that I will put up soon- I promise:) They did find that his little kidneys are enlarged because they are not releasing all the fluid they should, so they are sending us to Vanderbilt in Nashville, Tennessee to see a specialist and get a more detailed anatomy scan. Our OB did not seem REALLY concerned, but said she wanted to do what is best for the baby and I. Best case-- it gets better with time and we deliver as planned. Worst case- the fluid continues to build and I have to be closely monitored and deliver at Vanderbuilt early so the baby can have a surgery to fix the problem. She did say that she has seen much worse cases than ours and the baby is just fine. However, she said not to get on the Internet because there are lots of sites that print things that are not true, which we all know:) So please keep us all in your prayers that the little one grows out of this and all is well. I will update again after we meet with the specialist. Thanks so much for sharing this amazing journey with us and for giving us all your wonderful support! It means the world to both Jill and I!!
Love you all and God bless!!!

Congratulations!! SO excited for you ladies!! Awww.. a little boy :) How wonderful!! he is gonna be a lucky little boy!!
Yeah!!! I'm SO glad you posted. I've been checking your blog all day and I was gettin' worried! Love the name you've picked out. Isn't it wonderful getting to call him by name now. When we found out, we started calling her Maddie right away. Dawn and I are so happy for you. Stay positive regarding the kidney issue. When I was diagnosed with the single umbilical artery, I was told that there could be kidney issues (along with several other things) so I got close monitoring too. And I worried for nothing. Everything was perfect. Your little Braden will be a healthy little boy too, I'm sure. Sending positive thoughts your way. Take care.
A Boy! Yay!
How wonderful.
Congratulations, again and again!
CONGRATS!!! I love his name!
Ok, so I was wrong. But YAY for Braden Lee! Congrats on the blue! He will be PERFECT!
Yea for team blue!!! Braden is a very cute name.
I am sure everything will be fine with the kidneys, but it is better to be safe...
Keep us posted on everything!
yay! little boys are so wonderful...although i might be biased as baby indigoscot is a boy...lol! :) fx everything is fine at your specialist consult.
a BOY ???? I would of thought a girl oh well now you can call him by his name.,..,.so nice in my day (my children ar 24 & 28) we just had to call it the baby....lol don't worry about the kidney thing it will be ok....he's not growing yet.....
OH congrats (and I guessed right, I can't believe it)!!! Don't worry about the kidney thing- my cousin had that with both of her kids and they both outgrew it before birth. Belly pats Braden :D
Another boy! Seems like everyone's having boys these days! Can't wait to see pics of baby Braden.
Congratulations to the mommies of the little man.
