Gender reveal

Kayla • Nora Elyse 12/8/17 💕
We initially didn't plan on having a gender reveal party, but everything just kind of fell into place for the perfect party! We did the blood test through our doctor that tests genetic diseases and also reveals gender. 
We took the envelope the doctors gave us with the gender in it to a fireworks store and had them get the corresponding color (we didn't want to know the gender prior and they were SO HELPFUL with our request) so here is a screenshot of one of the videos! 
So yesterday we found out we are having a little GIRL! 🎀
My husband had a dream about her years ago while we were still dating and knew that's what we were having, but I thought it would be a boy because "there's no way his dream could be right?" (But he has had 2 dreams about friends kids before they were pregnant and they turned out to be true!)

Yep! I think I was 8 weeks for my 1st appt, and they said we could do the blood test (which is what they preferred) or 2 u/s somewhere around 16 weeks then 20 weeks. But my insurance only covers 2 u/s so it was cheaper for me to do the blood test cause I've already had 2 u/s pretty early on!

No not at all! My doctor offered 2 tests, one was $99 out of pocket (and doesn't go towards my deductible) and the other insurance covered but not enough (it was still crazy expensive but would've went towards my deductible) so we did the $99 test

At a local fireworks store, I don't know if all states have them though

Thank you! I was hesitant at first because I've seen mishaps happen where they don't go off or you can't tell what color it is, but it turned out perfect!
