He laughed "Don't worry about it."

They sat there in silence for a moment.
"What do you hope it is?"

"The baby?" She looked over at him "Do you hope it's a boy or a girl."

"I-" he hadn't really thought of it.
He imagined that if it was a boy, he could do all the things he could never do as a boy. Learn about footie, play catch, fish-
But if it was a girl, it didn't mean he couldn't do all the same things.
"I don't care either way" he said truthfully "I'm just glad it is."

Daphne smiled "I guess your right" she pursed her lips together.
"I hope it's a girl."

"Of course you do" he replied with a little laugh, before seeing the nurse come out.
He stood up as they called Daphne's name and offered her a hand to stand up.

She took it and stood up with a "Oomph" and followed him toward the examining room.
Within minutes she was laying back in a comfortable chair waiting for the doctor to take another sonogram.
He'd taken one before and had the old ones, but she requested one now that the baby was more developed, she figured it would be more accurate, and they didn't say she was wrong.

Jude sat back in a stool next to her, holding her hand.

The doctor came in shortly after and began setting things up.
"How are you Ms. Blake?"
"I'm fine, feeling a little sick today, but it's nothing I can't handle."
"Do you want me to prescribe you some more anti nausea medicine?"
"No, really I'm all right, thank you."
The doctor had Daphne pull up her shirt and began rubbing an odd gel on her stomach that was very cold, but it wasn't her first time, so she didn't complain about the sudden cold, she had been expecting it.
He reached over and grabbed the wand and began rubbing it along her stomach.

Jude looked up at the screen, seeing if he couldn't tell before the doctor.
Of course he didn't even know what he was looking for.
Then it appeared to him, the shape of his child, right there in black and white.

"I'm sorry I didn't bring you along earlier" she squeezed his hand and turned to look at the monitor herself.
The doctor started pointing out the different parts of the body, before smiling.
"It's a girl."

Jude gasped.
A baby girl, he was going to be the father of a baby girl!

Daphne placed her hand on her lips to hold back the tears "Jeepers."
