January Jelly Beans 2014!

[Acorn]

Welcome cakemumma! Love the pic!

We did 4D last time around. We also had to pay around $100. I feel like it was so worth it! It was definitely a bonding experience for DH, he was super excited and kept saying how cute she was. I was truly amazed how much she looked like those photos when she came out. The tech could even tell she had dimples! I am pretty sure we did around 28 weeks. The longer you wait, the more fat they have on them and look like a baby, but if you wait too long then they are all squished and it's hard to get good images.

I am due at the end on Jan. Jealous of all of your v-day's and double digits!

want2bemommy, yes GTT is the glucose test. My doctor just gave me an estimated date to do it and it was this past sunday when I was 24+6. Neither she, nor the nurse, gave me a latest by date so that's where I'm confused. I'm just going to have to break down and call to ask. Anyway, good luck on finding something that works for you guys! Moving is such a pain!!

Glad your appointment went well, Lucy. It's always nice to get a surprise scan! I've never had one myself though! LOL

As for 4D, I've never went for a private scan but where I go, they do try to get you some 4D pics when you are there for scans. I got a few at my 20 week but he still looked so skeletal in them. I got some later with my 1st son, I can't remember when but it was after 28 weeks and they were great. He looked just as he was when he was born. I'm hoping I get at least one more scan with this one too but I'm not sure if I will or not. I, unfortunately, don't have the extra money to pay for a private scan so that's out for me.

Jess I hear ya no extra money here either I have to pay for the extra apts and scans which I have to have so I ask when I can if they can do a 4D which both places said we could try but he's to little still maybe in the coming weeks

We only get a scan at 12 weeks and another at 20 if don't pay here . Crappy really. Still can't decide if want another or not

I'm still half tempted to find out what we're having lol x

I only get the 20 week US unless I get diagnosed with GD (which I don't think is likely, but my co-worked just did and I wouldn't have thought she would have it either. She's always been a bigger person, but works out 1-2 hours per day (she's 33 weeks along)).
I'm having my GTT at 26 weeks 5 days, next Friday and later that day DH and I are going on a tiny babymoon up north at a little cottage we rented. I haven't really been tempted to get another scan, there is a private place nearby and it's about $85, but I think her 3D pic from last time (my avatar) is just fine.

Happy V-day, Twag!!

I didn't think I'd get any more scans after my 20 week with my 1st son but I ended up having a 28ish week scan. My doctor said she liked to do a growth scan around that time just to make sure everything is OK. In my case, he ended up being small and so there were some growth concerns. After that I ended up having 2 more scans with a specialist (along with weekly NSTs) so I got to see him a good number of times. I'm thinking my extra scans with my 1st son were due to high blood pressure that spiked near the end of my last pregnancy. I have high BP this time too but I've been on meds since the beginning this time and it's stayed pretty normal so far (FX it stays that way!!). So if it continues to stay down, I'm not sure if my doc will schedule me for another scan or not. I'm really kind of hoping she will.
