I want a sewing machine!! In Italy, there is a store on the corner that sells them. I want to make curtains. Clothing seems impossible. Straight lines. Follow the dots, and go straight!

Sunshine, wanna make me a wedding dress? Hehehehe.

 

[Sunshine12]

lol. Dont you want to look good on your wedding day!? Adult clothing is not my thing. Tried it and was awful at it!! Baby/childrens stuff is cool because it doesnt have to fit exactly! x

I'm feeling so un-crafty with you ladies! I can sew on a button and that's about it. I do more with scrapbook pages and that kind of crafting. I'm leaving the knitting to my mom and some of my friends. Right now, LO is lined up for a cardigan, a sweater, and at least two blankets!

Here's the "confirmation scan" from Monday's appointment. Apparently my little girl's not all that modest! I thought it odd that MIL responded to the pic by saying it was "somewhat gross" - huh? Oh well. She's an odd duck and I don't take much of what she says to heart. I also remind myself that she's only got a 25% genetic influence on LO while I've got 50% plus the parenting!

 

[sadie]

That made me laugh! And btw, i think you will have more than 50% of a role in the parenting! You have been warned! . imo.....

 

[Ellie Bellie]

Sadie - I've pretty much resigned myself (happily) to having more than 50% of the parenting, considering that I feel like I'm already the parent of one overgrown child at times! Though I can't give DH too much of a hard time and he really isn't an overgrown child. I do like to tease him!

 

[Sunshine12]

Ellie, what a fab potty shot!!

 

[lilmamatoW]

Well, it looks like we are having another GIRL! All the measurements look good and we are so relieved!

BOY!!! So, the Ramzi theory proved right for us...

Sorry to flash ya
DH is over the moon. I'm a little reserved, but deffo glad for a very healthy little boy!! All looked very well.

 

[sadie]

Wow! Look at that thang! Haha. Congrats!!
And we have another for the blue team ladies!

 

[sadie]

And there's another one for the Pink team! Yippee, lilmama!

 

[Sunshine12]

Congrats Lilmamato!!
Starsign, what a piccie!! No doubt about what you are having eh!! Congratulations! The ramzi thing still baffles me. What it all about again? x

Yeah, it was a serious pic, wasn't it? But, part of the length is the cord, it's the fact that there's a oval-like protrusion in the center. Girl tend to be separated ovals.

Ramzi theory, the side of uterus the placenta is attached to, gives a good idea of sex of baby...as early as 6 weeks. In my case, the u/s tech told me at my 8 week scan that placenta was attached on the right- so I didn't have to use the pic to assess on my own. Girls tend to attach on left side, boys on right side (their study said 97% accuracy). It's the attachment location in the beginning, not placenta location (the placenta shifts as time goes on).

 

[lilmamatoW]

Not sure how Ramzi works either, but here's a declaration that this little one is a girl! Strange that both my acupuncturist and herbalist predicted a boy! I am happy though as this means my first gets a sister and I always wanted a sister.

And SS, congrats on team blue!

They didnt tell me at my scan which side it was on.

 

[sadie]

Call and ask!! Hahaha.
Mine has been in the front for a little bit.....

 

[sadie]

Except for being so excited about babies and discovering their sex, is anyone extra moody lately? I have always been an emotional person, unfortunately but right now the hormones are really kicking in. I think i wrote about this not even two weeks ago. My mom is out of state for a few months, sisters live an hour away, OH in another country.
I am forcing myself to go for dinner tonight with a GF and then to see sisters and kids on saturday. I think i am having the winter blues on top of hormone breakdown! Ok debbie downer is leaving the building.

 

[StarSign]

My emotions have been kinda of even keel, but when I was carrying DD, I felt more 'unbalanced' because I already tended to have high estrogen levels. I feel like the sex of the baby contributes to your original hormones (crazy theory prolly).

Anyways, I'm glad you're getting out a bit because all that being alone doesn't help a thing!! I'm glad you have some good friends....
