I can't wait to see all the pictures from everybody!

With all the extra scans most people are getting I know it is probably hard, but is anyone else planning on being on team yellow? I was team yellow with dd and it was really cool, but the doctor had to tell me when to look away at the scan and he only printed pictures where you couldn't see. (I honestly probably wouldn't have been able to tell anyway, lol) I loved the surprise when she was born! :)
 
I would love to be on team yellow but i dont know if i could handle not knowing and not being able to prepare clothes and stuff in the right colours!!

Did it matter with anything planning wise that you didnt know??
 
Hey ladies!

Had my 10 week scan and all was well! Measuring 10+1 and had a heat beat of 169. The baby was waving and dancing in there, its so weird that there could be all that movement and I don't feel a thing!

Next scan is in two weeks and they will test for Downs and other deformities. Hoping for the best, working with my crystals and staying positive!

Hope everyone else's scan goes as well as mine.... I'm over the moon over here!

PS: I think we may go team yellow. I think it might be a fun surprise!
 
We did the nursery in a woodland creature theme that would work for either gender. It is actually a theme that I wanted anyway and I think it turned out great!after we had lo we knew we could add things to be more specific, like flowers and faeries for a girl and gnomes and mushrooms for a boy. We got a lot of gender neutral clothes in nb and 0-3 months and at our shower we got gifts like blocks, books, stuffed animals and other toys that would work for either gender. I actually liked it better because I hate the color pink and if we would have found out I know we would have gotten tons of girly pink clothes and dolls.

It was funny because everyone, except one person, said I was carrying a boy. Some of the gender" tests" were right for me so I wonder if they will be this time. :)
 
I will say that the one reason that I might be swayed to find out this time is so I can tell dd she is getting a baby brother or a baby sister, but I still think I will stay team yellow. :)
 
Brieanna, I am undecided about staying on team yellow this time. With the last pregnancy I wanted to... but now I'm having second thoughts, lol. Hubby is happy with either decision, although the other day he said he feels like he might be able to bond with baby better before it is born if he knows the sex... so we will see.

Vietmamsie, I am so glad to hear your scan went well!! What wonderful news :) Have you got any pictures for us?
 
Lisa....with the outfit I wore to work today, I'm sure some people were wondering about me because the shirt was extremely form fitting. I kept feeling like I looked pregnant all day.

We're going to find out the sex, but we're doing gender neutral colors. We are going to be doing a Winnie the Pooh theme with greens and yellows. We're open to whatever.

Now question...have any of you done the pendulum trick? A woman at my work did a different variation than the pendulum over the belly trick. The way she did it was to take a pendulum and hold it over one of your wrists (I usually use my left) and it's suppose to predict how many children you'll have total. If it goes up and down your arm it's a girl, if it goes side to side it's a boy, and when it stops that's how many you're suppose to have. Every time I've done it it always comes up with the same thing - 2 girls and a boy. My husband wants to have 2 kids total, so if we take into consideration our MC as one of them, looks like we might have one more after this baby.

Oh, and the one time I did this trick with one of my friends (who already had 6 kids), it came back saying she'd have 7. She didn't like that idea, but then the following year when I saw her next....she had a new baby in a carrier. She looked at me and said, "You and that darn pendulum." lol
 
Congrats Vietmamsie!!! It's so neat to see them dancing in there!

We saw our regular ob yesterday and the hb was steady at 178 :thumbup: and this time our little one was sleeping. I'll have to post a picture later. The baby was facing us and you can see between the legs. So far, I don't see anything there, but I'm only 11 weeks! We are going to find out for sure, we can't wait to know, and I want to have a gender party!! No patience over here for team yellow, we'd cave!!!
 
Attached is a picture of the scan. I labeled everything just so my family could figure out what is what. I was disappointed in the single picture we got yesterday, I thought there were so many other points that the baby looked really baby like, and she didn't take a picture. I hope next time to get some better pics!

We are planning on keeping it a surprise too! We did it with our ds and it was so special.
 
Oh ladies... I have my scan is less than an hour. I am so nervous. I can't even keep the water down. The last time I had an us was in jan. and that did not turn out to well. Pray for me if you are out there! I will be heading right to work after so... I hope all goes well! My mw said if they don't tell me anything she will call and ask for a report ASAP! I am glad she is so on the ball.
 
Scan went ok! Saw the little bean... Measuring 9 weeks. They Recorded a hb but did not get to hear it. And sorry no pics :(
But thankfully everything is ok.
