I'm dying for a girl, my other half knows I am as well so no pressure lol.
I don't know what it is but I would probably cry if they said I was having another boy, I think it's because my dad died before I was born so it was just me and my mum and I want that closeness with a daughter as well.

We too are waiting to find out until the baby's born. So team yellow over here as well!! My symptoms aren't really showing up and I'm more than okay with that!! But I'm also 4w2d so I know there is plenty of time. I'm just keeping fingers crossed that nothing will show up down the road because my mother had 3 very easy, symptom-free pregnancies and I'm hoping to follow in tradition!!

The only one I am getting is a dull cramping in my uterus and occassionally off to my right side. Anyone else getting cramps? When I first found out I was pregnant I thought for sure AF was about to rear her ugly head but now I am starting to feel more relaxed towards them and remind myself it's my little pistachio settling in.

Oh ditto on the uterus cramps. Mine are quite as strong as AF Ines but I can feel that there is something going on. Which is a nice reminder of my little bean

It feels like a pull sometimes, sometimes to the left and then right. And I've had little shudder which feel very similar to the baby moving.

We would find out.
We did with our daughter (she's 6 now). Im too impatient to wait

I don't seem to have any symptoms, I've woken up with a horrible cold this morning so I just feel awful because of that.

We have a boy and a girl so it doesn't make a difference to me . But son is 6 he wants a brother lol hoping for a happy and healthy baby . I had an early scan with my daughter at 15 for the gender my son I found out at 20 weeks .

lindsayms05 · Jan 31st, 2017, 08:47 AM

There's no way I could wait to find out the gender! LOL. With my daughter, we paid for an gender ultrasound while we were on vacation. With this little one, I will be 16/17 weeks in April so we will go to an ultrasound place again for an early gender and then confirm at my 20 week appointment.

hmcx · Jan 31st, 2017, 09:08 AM

That's what we did, we paid private for an early scan at 6 weeks, then another at 16 for gender

And then at my 20 week appointment at the hospital we asked the gender just to confirm! Luckily they said the same as the private clinic.

I'll probably do the same this time. It's seems so far away though!

MrsReed2015 · Jan 31st, 2017, 11:30 AM

Because of my previous history with ectopic I should be getting a scan at 7 weeks. Haven't heard from a midwife yet?( have given details to the doctor)

It feels like time is going slllloooooowwwwwwllllyyyyy!

I flicked through the thread with bump pics, and it made me want mine! This is my second child so hopefully I will show sooner!

My nipples are so sore today and I'm already thinking about going to bed! It's 17:30 here!

Any more symptoms from anyone?

lindsayms05 · Jan 31st, 2017, 11:48 AM

Still not many symptoms on my end, but I'm definitely not complaining! I am more tired than usual and I'm really struggling with finding foods that I want to eat. I always seem to lose a bit of weight in the first tri, not due to morning sickness, but lack of appetite. My dreams seem to be ramping up a bit. Vivid dreams is one of my usual early symptoms.

Not an enormous amount of symptoms here either. I have had sore breasts (especially nipples) since around 5dpo. They went for a couple of days and are worse some days than others, but that's my biggest symptom. Today I've been tender in my uterus area - not quite like AF cramps, just swollen and tender feeling, which I hope is uterus stretching, not a sign of bad things happening. I've had some food aversions and I'm exhausted every single evening! It's only 6:20 here and I'm sitting in my daughter's room while she drifts off and I am seriously considering hopping into bed in a minute myself! The last thing is my resting heart rate is up to 74 and has been since last week (my usual is 60). So that's a comforting sign. I'm not testing till my early scan a week from today (as part of attending the recurrent miscarriage clinic, they give you regular reassurance scans), so little symptoms are really reassuring!
