Chances are: it is a boy

It is my joy to see him alive and kicking. The umbilical cord is also formed. I am now 10 weeks and 3 days pregnant. It is too early to tell the gender. But, my obgyne showed me the triangular thing in the private part of the fetus. She said perhaps it is a boy. She will confirm later on. She told me to do hla-b27 screening when the baby is born.

Ouch, this reminds me that ankylosing spondylitis symptoms are more pronounced in male than in female. I hope ankylosing spondylitis does not affect his outlook in life. In the past, my immunologist  initially thought that my husband has ankylosing spondylitis. I corrected him and he said ankylosing spondylitis also causes erectile dysfunction. Hmmm... Is it true? Nothing can be undone!

Am I selfish? It depends on the viewer's perspective. I did not do PGD.  My conscience is clear the law of nature applies. Is ankylosing spondylitis a sufficient ground for me not to have a baby? Actually, I prefer a girl because of lesser AS symptoms. Hmmm... Should I consider another baby? Hehe... Now, I sound greedy.
