Yay for excellent results!! I still haven't told everyone in my office. it consists of about 30 attorneys, a paralegal, an office manager, a receptionist, 6 secretaries and me and my cowork (office services). Of all of those, the office manager, my coworker and 3 secretaries know lol.

Hey ladies has my 12 week scan today... Any gender ideas?

 

[NavyLadybug]

Hmmmm, I say boy! But i always say boy haha

 

[zmzerbe]

Firsttimer, I am going to say GIRL! The nub looks girly to me!

 

[firsttimer123]

Time will tell!

 

[zmzerbe]

Time will tell!

That's for sure! I was hoping to get a better pic of little one during my scan but they just had their back to me.

 

[firsttimer123]

Oh no... I really want to go to an early 3d gender scan at 15 weeks...it's not too pricey

 

[NavyLadybug]

I can't believe everyone will be finding out the gender in a about a month!! So exciting! Can't wait to see if we have more Misters or Misses!!!

 

[SunUp]

First "real" OB apt tomorrow! Nervous but excited!

 

[NavyLadybug]

Keep us updated, SunUp! So exciting!

 

[zmzerbe]

I can't wait to find out either! I was contemplating having the technician write it down on an envelope and opening it up as a family on Christmas morning.

 

[NavyLadybug]

Omg zmzerbe, that is such a cute idea!!!

 

[KozmikKitten]

zmz I love that idea! So cute!

 

[zmzerbe]

Thanks, I don't know if DH will go for it though... I've thrown the idea at him but I don't know if either of us is patient enough for that.

It would be really hard to wait that long! I'd have to wait an extra 3 weeks to find out the gender...Not sure I can do it! But maybe we will find out the gender at the apt and then wait until Christmas to share the news with family!

 

[Lala77]

Such a cute idea! You could also know and tell other people on Christmas!

By the way navy... Unlike the memory frames you made.

I totally agree! I don't know if I will have the patience in the end. I will be 20 weeks on the 16th and almost 26 weeks at Christmas! but we plan on it only being us to find out the gender (aside from you ladies of course) because everyone else pretty much wants it to be a surprise.

 

[KozmikKitten]

Although I'm thinking if we share the news BEFORE Christmas, than baby will most likely get in on some gifts at Christmas! Haha. So many decisions!

 

[SunUp]

I love the Christmas idea! We are having our gender scan in November at 16 weeks... So I was thinking about a gender "reveal" for Thanksgiving... Or maybe have a big family/friends early celebration... I think I'll try and really plan after my first trimester screen/sono results.

Anyone thinking about nursery ideas?!

Went to the DR today for some preliminary results for things like HIV, Lupus, etc etc and my Lupus test came back with a positive. So I have to be tested again on the 30th since it was barely over the threshold for what's considered positive. I also requested a copy of my US with Sophie and the radiologist asked if I wanted them all. I thought she meant like 3 or 4 of my last one so I said sure, I was happy to have more than just one. She came back with TWO discs full of nearly a hundred images from all 4 scans I had with Sophie from week 5 to 10. My favorite is this one, taken just before my D&C. Is it just me and wishful thinking or can you make out where her face was starting to form and get features and the outlines of the beginnings of arms and legs and little feet buds and it looks like she's curled in the fetal position? (Head on the left, little bum on the right)

We also finished Sophie's shadow box today. We hung it next to Robins.
