So just finished my 3 hr glucose test. I really don't know the point, I failed both last pregnancy and I already failed the 1 hr. they were nice enough to send me away with a blown vein!! my arm is so swelled and I feel like crap!

Holy crap! That sucks!!! I hope it feels better soon!

Tomorrow marks week 12 and DH and I have decided to make the pregnancy FB and extended family official. Our families have been dying for weeks to tell people and the opportunity has come up multiple times to tell friends.

I am planning on letting my mom and MIL go crazy with calls and let them spread the word to our large families. This is the first grandchild for both.

Is it weird that I am nervous to spread the news? No one will be anything but happy for us. We've also had two great ultrasounds with normal fetal growth and heartbeats.

When have/will the rest of you tell?

I did at 12 weeks exactly. I felt nervous, which I think is common, feel like you will jinx it. So far so good tho. I feel better now that I've told and am not worrying about the info getting out. Enjoy it!

So, I've been thinking for a change. Haha, I got to see the baby for a bunch of time yesterday... and, if you are able to see a little if the baby is a boy or a girl... I wasn't able to peek on a baby boys body part AT ALL! I mean, I really was able to see the baby clear and for a long time... hmmm...

we told close family and close friends after our 8 week scan. We arent letting the FB world know until our 12 week scan, but of course we have people coming up to us already saying congrats which is fine. We say thanks! But we arent going around blabbing about the news until 12 weeks (but we acknowledge if someone tells us congrats)

But i dont think there will be any problems at our 12 week scan as i have heard LO HB with the doppler so hes alive and kicking!

Its also SO nice to not hide the news either... it was so annoying when i was getting questioned and harrassed about being pregnant bc of not drinking etc so it was hard on me having that stress

And I mean that I told EVERYONE, work, facebook and all that. Family knew pretty much right away

Apparently their organs can look like either since they are still very similar at this stage. It is much more reliable once you're over 14+ weeks, best around 20 weeks when things are the most visible.

They told me I would have a gender US on week 18 or 20. Can't wait!

It was facebooked when I was 3weeks 4days. Yes you read that right 3 weeks. Dh outted us before some family was called. He did the same with dd. he can't keep his mouth shut.

Hi ladies,
Back again with 12week update as I did with my 8week. Got my scan, everything went perfectly. Tech wouldn't even guess at the gender but hey ho. Got one little nub photo (well I think I did). LO wouldn't stop moving at the beginning and the lady was fighting with him/her a bit. Last one is what I think is a little nub, let me know what you think...

I moved to another nearby city last week and will deliver at a different hospital so i need a new midwife. OH took the day off to go to the old city we moved from for scan bloods and midwife and i was going too see if she knows one out here to refer me to. She just texted to say she is delivering a baby and will be in touch to reschedule. Aarrgghh. I think i will start phoning around to find one out here and tell the old one to start transferring. I had tracked down all my previous birth records because she wanted to decide if i need to be seen by specialists so i wanted to see her about that.

We had a 7.0 earthquake last night. Scary!

I did a huge sneeze and baby fluttered hard immediately after! So neat

Definitely do your own looking around, you could be waiting ages for your old MW! Oh my god how scary was that earth quake?! It was my first proper one (I've only been in NZ a few months)!! That was big enough for me.

Good luck with your scan-I'm sure you said it was today?
