Awwww Thats such a cute drawing... See with the whole lime fruit thing, i would of thought it was like everything!? like the edge of the lime to be the size of the sac with baby and placenta inside???

I know tickers say baby is the size of a lime... But its too big lol

My harmony results will be in this afternoon apparently according to the midwife I spoke to yesterday. Husband is certain he wants to know the gender this time I am on the fence eeeekkkkk!!!!

 

[GingerPanda]

Find out the gender! Let me live vicariously through you!

I'm guessing boy!

 

[startd]

Good luck Aliop!

We want to find out the gender at 20 weeks - a half way surprise!

How's everyone feeling?

I've been on bed rest this week after my body decided that growing a baby, dealing with reflux/constipation and getting rid of a virus at the same time wasn't going to happen. Feeling much better now, but very keen for a scan to check everything is ok.

I keep worrying that we didn't hear the heartbeat yesterday I have my 12 week scan in 5 days but I keep thinking its going to be bad news

Find out!

 

[Aliop]

CrazyMumma, try not to worry although I do know that is near nigh impossible xx

startd, sounds like a stressful week! Have you got a scan booked?

GP, when I was pregnant with my first I saw a fortune teller (just for fun at a fete) who said I would have a boy, then girl and then another boy followed by a final son so I am leaning towards boy too even though I think she was just making it up its been correct so far!! My husband thinks it is a girl but I am sure the even b/g & b/g thing appeals to him haha!!

LOL I am starting to think I should find out, my husband is seriously the most easy going calm person who never asks anything of me and supports me in every little silly thing and this is the first time he has wanted to know so maybe I should?? Been thinking I could do him a little gender reveal with cake or balloons or something as we wouldn't tell anyone else so it would be super special just for him. Hmmm...what to do?!?!

It is only 10am and already I am dying from anticipation waiting for the call which probably won't come until after 4pm

 

[Aliop]

oh and 200 days remaining!!!!

 

[cheree89]

stay team yellow Aliop...heehee

Awwe I almost bought nappies the other day but resisted as I had a lot to carry home already. I got a load of baby sleepsuits and vests today, baby sleeping bag and leggings for 30p each in the charity shops and they are all virtually new

How much is 30p? It sounds like an amazing deal. Hehe.
My DH can fit the entire size 1 diaper in his hand, it's so funny, and that's not even new born. My sister's last baby was nearly 8 years ago. I'd forgotten how small they are!

Also had a physio appt - he lent me a TENS machiene to try out and its amazeballs on my hips!!! I've been avoiding all painkillers so its nice to finally have something that helps! Got a few exercises to try and strengthen the muscles around my pelvis but basically its going to get worse and we are just trying to slow it down - 6 months to go!

I thought I was the only one with hip issues. My left hip is KILLING ME! I think I'll invest in new tennis shoes because I don't think I'll make it without some comfort on my feet.

pink_bow, you'll probably be the first to find out!!!

GP -I am so excited about the gender scans. I couldn't be team yellow. I'd have a heart attack.

According to my previous EDD I'm 12 weeks today, but I went ahead and moved it back once the doctor said I was a few days behind because I know I ovulated late. So, her measurements are probably the true EDD and not the one based on my LMP.

GP - Can you move me to October 3?

30p is like 45 cents US i think.

oh and 200 days remaining!!!!

 

[tallybee]

I def want to know gender, OH is cool with that. Might have to get another private scan as after the one on the 31st, the next routine one won't be until 20 weeks

 

[Babee_Bugs]

Ive always found out gender, the sooner the better for me...

This is the Last baby EVER and with my last baby i so wanted to know... then when i knew i was like, oh man i wish i had of waited I have to C-Sections and everything is all planned to a T, so i know when I'm going to give birth, when and roughly what time... Theres none of that excitement of things just happening at any point.... So i think it would be nice for us to go Team Yellow and then literally when baby pops out of the sunroof it will have that added bit of excitement of then finding out if we got the gender right or wrong :hehe:

and plus, even though i knew i was having a girl last time, i still ended up going to the shops afterwards and buying clothes etc etc... shopping is soo much more fun with a Newborn hehe

Just met with the midwife today, home birth it is with a birthing pool! I'm so glad they didn't bunt me knowing I'm on blood thinners.

Welcome! I'll add you in now!



Aliop, freaky about the fortune teller! I have a friend on here who says I'm psychic about guessing baby genders. I think I've only been wrong twice since I joined the forums. But I have to get a feeling, and I don't get a feeling about everybody.

Brilliant isn't it!

I'm lucky to not be the ONLY person I know IRL to go homebirth but it's still really unusual so having online community is amazing! I never had anything like this in my other pregnancies!
