Gender Reveal for Baby Halstead

Filed Under: Family, Pregnancy Tagged With: gender reveal, rainbow baby

My blood test came back on Tuesday. Everything looked good! So that means… it is time to know the gender of our new baby! Watch the clip below to find out. The balloons got stuck and Dustyn ended up walking out of the scene when he pulled the box open. It was still cute though.

Here is a photo of Carsyn getting the confetti dropped on him.

Then we shoved the balloons back up in the box and took some photos of the boys together.

All in all I think it turned out really cute. Check out the infographic below for more clever ways to announce your pregnancy or gender on social media.

Gender Reveal

Panorama is a DNA screening test that can tell parents important information about their pregnancy. They can find out if baby is at risk for having Down syndrome or other chromosomal abnormalities. Panorama can also tell parents the gender of their baby. Non-invasive and highly accurate, Panorama has the lowest falsepositive rate of any prenatal screening test for the commonly screened chromosomal abnormalities, trisomies 21, 18 and 13. And, Panorama can be done as early as nine weeks into pregnancy using a simple blood draw. Visit the Panorama website for more information.

I really wanted to get this testing done to ease some of my fears. Having a son with special needs made this pregnancy a little more nerve wracking. I know the results wouldn’t have changed my mind. We would have kept and loved our baby either way, but I like to be prepared. Thankfully our results came back normal and everything looks good. This screening gave me some peace of mind.

Did you do a gender reveal on social media?

Thanks so much to my friend Kate for filling the box for me,  Melissa Stallings Photography for taking the photos for me, and for Panorama Prenatal Test for sponsoring this post. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
