2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

[Tink1o5]

Good luck ladies on your scans.

I will have my anatomy scan next week on Wednesday making me 18+5...but baby Is measuring 4 days ahead.

I am now team + !

Baby B was uncooperative and had its bum to my spine and head pointing to the middle of my belly so it was not possible to see it's bits. Fortunately I get an ultrasound every 3 weeks now. Baby A most definitely had a boy part.

I'm very happy to have healthy babies, but I am really hoping that B is a girl... that is what I most wanted.

welcome to team blue dark star, my heart always desires girls but let me tell you the love of little boys is unrivaled they are so sweet, take it from a soon to be mother of 6 boys. I love my daughter to pieces but it is definitely different. x

 

[tallybee]

Aww dark star hopefully B will cooperate and be pink when you get your next scan xx

I am soooooo big and was worried, but looking back on my last pregnancy I was just as big. I am so jealous of those starting to show. Complete strangers are asking me about being pregnant.

18 weeks

I should also say I re-read my journal from my first pregnancy and forgot I had an anterior placenta so I didn't feel baby for sure till 20.5 weeks. I had felt flutters, but were too subtle for me to be sure. This time it was 16 weeks. I know with a second you tend to feel earlier, but think the placenta position has probably had an effect too.

 

[Dark_Star]

Thanks ladies.
I think I'm mostly disappointed in not knowing both babies sexes. I had planned it to be my mother's day gift to both of the grandmothers to be - bouquets of white roses with little pink or blue stuffed toys nestled in them.
North American Mothers day is this Sunday, I know Europe's was a while back.

 

[Rainstorm]

Dark star, I understand your disappointment, though I guess it must be difficult for both babies to be in the right position for you to see the sex. Hope you find out soon

 

[Tink1o5]

Darkstar- Congrats on 1 baby
Hope you can find out soon what your other is. FX for a one for you

 

[tallybee]

Morning! I found lo on the doppler really easily last night it was magical

 

[Rainstorm]

I woke up this morning and Evelina was moving like crazy! Even DH could feel her! It was so wonderful to have a baby moving inside me again! Last time I was 20-something weeks the first time I felt it like this

Why do I feel so much pressure already? Only hitting 18 weeks tomorrow and I feel pressure in between my legs. I know there are 2 in here but how can I seriously feeling pressure so early? Dr Appt on Monday.

This group is much more active then the october rainbows.
Im due october 4th and have my scan this wednesday. I genuinely dont care if we have a boy or girl but i do have it set in my head that its a girl lol. Dh wants a boy so i also kind of hope for a boy for his sake.. Hopefully baby is cooperative and we can get a peek at what it may be

 

[Dark_Star]

Double: I am already feeling a lot of pressure too. You may be having contractions already, mine started at 16 weeks.

Here's a few pictures from my anatomy scan

 

[Tink1o5]

I've been having a "pressure" feeling too.

Congrats! Good luck for baby b to be a little pink one! Will be interesting to see if they are different genders as I think I recall you writing their heartbeats are similar, you might debunk the HB theories!

 

[ClaireJ23]

Hello ladies, congratulations on scans and finding out the gender.

I started feeling movement quite early (around 14 weeks) and it did feel at first like gas bubbles. At 16 weeks I had my midwife appointment and said that I thought I felt baby moving on my lower right side and she checked for hb there and he was there moving around (you could hear it). Now I am certain that these same movements are kicks. It does feel a little like little fish swimming in there, GP. lol We have our anatomy scan a week tomorrow.
