***January Jellybeans***~ 35 BABY GIRLS & 23 BABY BOYS BORN ~***

[jms895]

Congrats to all the ladies that have had their scans! Lots of pink jellybeans!!!

We had our anomoly scan today. All is fine and dandy. We didn't get to hear the heartbeat though as the sonographers were too preoccupied with trying to measure the little fidget!! I had a few swigs of Coke on the way as i'd read it would get the baby wriggling! Boy did it work! To the point where they couldn't measure anything! Hahahaha.. Luckily after much persevering and moving of bed, rolling onto sides and emptying bladder they got all the info they needed!

It was lovely to see tiny arms and legs kicking and punching! The tiny heart was beating perfectly and we saw the tiny face. I can't believe how much fidget has grown!

So anyway.. we found out, much to our surprise that we are on team....
Which is brilliant but a shock as I felt it was a boy! So now we have to get our thinking caps on for girlie names!!!
Although the sonographer said she couldn't say 100%, which is what they say to everyone. But there were definately no little boy bits there!!

I'm just abit sad that it'll be the last time we see our little pink one til January!

Congrats hun! WOW its pink overload in the Jellybeans

Popped in for a quick visit, hope everyone is well x x

We've had a busy weekend and Pinklet (which is what we're calling bump now lol) did her first carnival! We all had a great night and the girls both came 2nd in their catagories (one with majorettes, one with guides this year) so they did well too!

Got a busy week planned too, trying to get the house sorted so I can decorate the front room over the weekend - only time I can get the help I need. My kids have a couple of birthday parties too and we need to make sure everything's sorted for when they go back to school so we can relax and enjoy the last week (my mum's off work that week yay)

Hope all the upcoming scans go well and everyone has a good week x x

my scan isnt till 13th sept we cant wait but seems so long till then lol congrats on all the scan results as people have said before team pink defo has the lead at the moment when we find out will let you all know what team we are on xx

 

[Natsku]

Does anyone know how accurately they can tell the gender at 18 weeks?
I'm being sent for an extra scan, probably this week, and wondering if I'll maybe find out then. Well, if I can convince my OH that we should find out...

Hi there,
I havent been on the site in a while and after my 12 week scan had a new due date. Could I change it please? It now January the 19th.

We dont have our anomoly scan till the 9th September and are still not sure whether or not to find out the sex (if we even can).
I wondered if I would feel after the initial excitement that I had kinda spoiled the surprise? Has anyone felt this?
We have so many people telling us to wait, it's not that long, it's the biggest surprise of your life, etc, etc..

Help?!

I found out what team I was on with my daughter 5 years ago and I am going to do the same with this one. I was sooo much more prepared knowing what colour to buy etc etc. Its surprising how little unisex stuff there is out there now-a-days. I kinda thought to myself that once it was born I would want it to be wearing either blue or pink so I didn't want to buy it all in beige and then again in blue/pink!

Plus... when you go into shops and there are sales on and you can save loads of money! - Also, friends and family also get to save!!

I didn't feel I had lost out on anything when I gave birth and I already knew the sex. I'm doing it again so it can't be that bad!!

X x X

Thanks I think my nosey side will win out in the end. I just worry I would feel like I had spoiled my surprise, found my Christmas presents before Christmas - that sort of thing!

 

[Maffie]

Congrats on the scans ladies.

When I found out last time it in no way detracted from the feeling when he came. I felt knowing his sex helped me bond.

My scan is on Thursday

 

[mum2be2011]

Good luck with your scan on Thursday Maffie, hope everything goes ok.

How are you feeling now? Saw on this thread the problems you were having. Hope your feeling better and that everything is ok.

 

[smiffy85]

I've got my little extra scan tomorrow so can't wait to see my little man again. Gonna be a quickie though as all they need to measure is his spine, kidneys and abdo wall. Hopefully he will behave himself this time lol! Good luck to everyone with scans this week - it's so exciting! My little bean has been kicking me lots lately. Made me laugh on saturday when I was driving to my parents house cos he was kicking really low down right about where the seatbelt was. He was obviously a tad disgruntled with the belt on lol! Also getting him nudging stuff I rest on my tummy now too. He seems to favour giving mugs of tea and cup a soup a good kicking! Think hes gonna be a handful when he arrives but I can't wait.

How is everyone today anyway? I'll stop waffling on now xxxxx

 

[abstersmum]

its not fair i have to wait till next tuesday i want to see our little bean now ok sulk over hope everyone is having a good day

 

[jojo-m]

good luck with the scan tomorrow smiffy, hope your little man behaves and has a good stretch out! I've got my rescan on Weds, quite excited to have another peek. I've been buying some pink too so would like to just make sure it still looks like a girl before I remove any tags lol.

[lovealittle1]

[blessed]

Bought a lovely little dungaree set from Mamas and Papas outlet store on saturday. If anyone lives near J28 M1 it's at the east midlands outlet just off there!!

[smiffy85]

Ooops forgot to say hopw yours goes well too and lovealittle1 woohoo for you hun! I've got a mega big smile on my face now because as I was sat typing my last msg, my little mr was kicking just behind my belly button over and over so I stared at the place it was doing it and I saw my tummy move once where he was kicking! So exciting lol!!!! Anyone else had this yet?!? xxxx

 

[Jolene]

Smiffy, that's adorable! I have seen my tummy move once which surprises me because this LO is so active - kicking as I type. Enjoy your scan tomorrow!

Jojo - can't believe we're due the same day, both have been told it's looks like a girl and will have it confirmed on Wednesday and both have sons already, lol!

Can't wait for Wednesday, just 2 more sleeps. I want to start the nursery!

 

[Faff&Fidget]

Smiffy! Good luck with your scan tomorrow!!

Jojo and Jolene.. I am due on the same day as you both too!

x

I'm feeling a little odd at the moment.. not having many kicks tonight.. when usually i'd be feeling lots of movement..
If I don't feel anything i'll have to call someone for advice..

 

[jojo-m]

Let's hope they both still girls jolene! Faff that's wicked your due same day too! I'm sure your babe is just asleep, don't think they have a real pattern at this stage so I'm sure baby will wake up and dance soon try not to worry!

Good luck with the scan jolene and also lovealittle very exciting yours is coming up too! Xx

 

[beccybobeccy]

seem to be a lot of scans going on at the moment... mine is wednesday and I;m scared and excited in equal measures...

 

[LittleMrs]

Smiffy, I've been to junction 28 too to get all my maternity wear - mamas and papas sale is amazing!

Lovealittle - not pointless at all, very exciting - congrats on halfway.
