So jealous of everyone getting there scans mine Thursday i will be 14 weeks
In other news we did some sums yesterday morning and decided were not earning enough from me working to justify it so i gave my notice which only had to be a week and with sunday being easter the stores closed so i finished work yesterday and today i have completed an acrylic nail course which the trainer said i was fantastic for a first timer and if i practice about 20 sets she reckoned i would be better than her even her teenage daughter was really impressed yay me lol

 

[cdelmar]

we told parents and siblings a few days after we found out and started telling close friends after our scan at 9 weeks. I plan on making an easter day announcement (or the day before) on FB...im not into the ultrasound posting announcements so I will think of something different and maybe holiday related
Next Tuesday we find out gender!!!!...I probably could find out sooner if I called but Id rather have that experience with my DH during my next appointment I didnt think i wanted to do a gender reveal party but we will do a surprise gender reveal (not necessarily a party) with his family (my family doesnt live close) but, because most of his family are close by and they are joksters its going to be a prank or two we will have prior to revealing lol so it will be fun...we are going to invite them over for dessert or something and they wont know we are revealing gender until they come over our house Anyone else doing a gender reveal type thing??

 

[apreslaube]

Officially I'm in my second trimester! So excited!!

 

[Babee_Bugs]

I will announce after my scan on Saturday. Anyone ever do the gender pee tests just for fun?

Ive done the Bicarb of Soda, Gender test... I got Girl result

It was totally right with my daughter

Have you tried any others?

 

[Babee_Bugs]

Got my blood results back for Down Syndrome. My results were 1:2000 which they consider low risk (NHS) I'm relieved but also freaked out. I'm 34 this year I wonder if it has something to do with my age ? What are others thoughts

Maybes your age has something to do with it?

When i was having my first, i was 17 at the time, i got the NT Scan done and i got a phone call on a friday to say i had a High result!!! I panicked like hell, feared the worst and had to wait till the Monday before i could get a scan to check for downs... Everything was fine... He was perfectly ok.

I dunno why I've continued to get the NT test done for my further kiddos

My friend bought me intelligender and some other similar test both gave girl result I know it's just for fun but I was fun but wondering if anyone else had tried.

 

[MamaRed]

We are super excited! Got our panorama test results today and were told we are low risk and having a GIRL! Thrilled!!

Before getting the results we tried the baking soda and red cabbage tests and both gave the results of a girl. Although we didn't put much belief in them they turned out to be correct.

Aw that's cute crazymamma

 

[Chrissi1981]

Love it crazy mama !!! We've put together a quails egg in a nest it's rather sweet will take a pic and show all our announcement ideas ...

Mama red a girl yayayay !! Cannot wait to get mine back next week. Happy NHS said low risk but the harmony test is the real deal ARGH !!! Lol

Gender testing done the Chinese one and some other online one both said girl. Baking soda predicted a boy but I did go overboard with both solutions and it was quite explosive (glad I did it in the sink lol).

By the way anyone else waking up a ridiculous amount of times in the night and like 6.30 in the morning. So annoying.

Happy Easter all xxxx

 

[pink_bow]

I've been up since 5 as couldn't sleep but I'm now ridiculously tired

We haven't done any weird gender tests yet, just added up all of the boy/girl offspring from all of the men in our family IE DH's grandpa, dad, brothers and it was 22/21. Almost 50/50 chance of having either a boy or girl. Gender follows the men's lineage as it's the sperm that determine gender.

After looking at the U/S photos tho we both feel we're having a boy, it looks so chunky

Oh that's brilliant hun I'm guessing doing nails could be a business you work around your family. I need to do something about that maybe with my music or crafts. My degrees will be wasted

Oooh I'm so jealous lol still haven't had chance to talk properly with oh about finding the gender out. Gah!!

Awww so cute!!

We've still not done a big fb announcement though everyone important has been told personally. Need to talk to oh about that too. The joys of not living together lol.

I've been up since 5 as couldn't sleep but I'm now ridiculously tired

Ah I hate that! Happens to me quite a lot and throws me off for the whole day.

Yesterday I had a horrendous thumping headache and it's still not completely gone. I've got to go into town this afternoon so hopefully it will be ok by then.

The itching has settled a lot but still a bit annoying. Can't wear jeans at all because of it which is rubbish as I normally live in them! Thai fisherman pants are my new live in friends!!

God I am slack at keeping up with this birth club, sorry ladies! So much harder to drop in now with a toddler compared to when I was pregnant with him and on every day.

Had a check up scan yesterday just to make sure bub is still well. I was meant to be roughly 11w5d, but bub ended up measuring 12.5 weeks by CRL, abdominal circumference and head circumference! So crazy. My due date went from 18th of October to the 12th! Big baby! Also got a potty shot and it looks like we MAY be having another little boy! What do you guys think? I know all bubs have nubs at this age but it doesn't appear forked like they say girls nubs are. We have our NT scan next week so hopefully we get another good look

 

[tallybee]

Yay for measuring ahead! ! I'm useless at seeing nubs and stuff sorry xx

 

[detterose]

Haha, me too. But if you look at the second picture, on the right is the potty shot of the legs and there is a teeny tiny little something in between! Doesn't look like a cord to me and I have had huge boy vibes from the beginning! Only time will tell I guess but I will be super shocked if they say it's a girl haha.

I think it's a boy

I thought they both are forked at the beginning ? The nub theory works according to the angel of the nub according to the spine. If the nub is in line with the spine it's more likely to be a girl and if it's 30 degrees up from horizontal then it's a boy ... Don't quote me on that. So best way of working out sex at this stage is from the side view of the baby.

Otherwise I'm just as useless. Tried working out mine from the attached picture but I'm not 100% sure maybe a girl going with the skull theory but heard that that's a load of rubbish lol
