Thanks oops lovely bump going on there have you told many ppl bet that's hard to hide

Yours is coming on well too puppy

 

[tmr1234]

hi tmr. good look with scan - hope all ok with number 3 :> have u told either of your boys ? r they goin with u see scan?
x

We have told the boys ES can not wait to get a new baby Lo is to young to understand yet. we are taking es as he realy wants to come but leveing Lo at MIL as he is a bit of a mad 1 so will not sit still when at the hospital.

 

[oopsbaby]

Thank you buttons, haven't told many people at all. Still keeping it from family, due to the complicated circumstances. Hoping to be able to hide it til after 20 week scan so can reveal the sex, think my mum will take it better if it's a little person, rather than still an "it" if you know what I mean? I don't see my family much so it's easier for me to keep it from them, but my friends have started to guess lol xx

Aww puppy such a cute belly I'm 10 wks and got a little belly but it's all bloat

 

[tmr1234]

I wish i could still hide my Bump I am sure i am getting bigger by the day. I was looking back on pic's of when i was preg with my LO and i am as big as i was with him at 21+5.

I am really sure i can feel bubs moving about it is happening more and more and when i have my droppler on and hear her/him move i can feel it right where he/she is.

Has any 1 done the baking soda test?
I do it every now and again and have always got girl no fizz at all i really can not wait to find out just so i can start panting the room. My ES said yesterday we will have to start to buy girl tops soon i said why and he said for our baby girl bless he so wants a sister.

I predict mine is going to be a boy. We BD right on my peak day and Y sperm are faster, so I think chances are it IS a boy.

Also (and less believable) I tarot reader told me I'd have a boy with bright blue eyes. Although OH has blue eyes, mine are brown (which is a dominant gene) so for me to have a blue eyed boy is not likely.

I'd actually rather have a girl. I understand girls better than boys (two sisters, no brothers) but I wouldn't be at all disappointed to have a boy.

I have dark brown hair and brown eyes too, oh is blonde with blue eyes. Our 4 year old Elliot has the most beautiful cornflower blue eyes and is blonde - so it's possible!!
I always thought i only wanted girls and when i found out elliot was a boy was really worried i wouldn't know what to do with a boy!!
Now, i think boys are more affectionate and loving and are also either happy or sad whereas girls swing from one to the other and back again stopping at every emotion on the way a hundred times a day!!
Love them all to bits but definitely think boys are easier.
I'm thinking boy again for the same reason Bunda, although we did bd every day the week before too so may have been a little pink one waiting!!
Googled it the other day actually and 78% of people ttc using opk's had boys in the study i read...probably because they bd on o day!!

Oops thats a lovely bump pic. Will work out how to put phone pics on laptop and post one...i'm massive already. With the boys, i generally didn't show til 16-20 weeks....last time we told oh's parents the day Edward was born (32 weeks) so shows how small i was, only 2 mums at the school noticed.
Either this is a pink bump or theres more than 1 in there!! Have my nt scan 7th feb so will fnd out then!! Early scan got cancelled and wouldn't rebook as i don't actually have any problems (just paranoid) and my mc's were before my boys.Glad i have no probs but desperate to see bean now!!

 

[bounceyboo]

hi, can i join too please my due date is aug 25th going by my midwife and doc, i had n early scan on friday n saw our little babys heartbeat, i cant wait until feb for my 13 week scan!

 

[tmr1234]

Wellcome b/boo that is so cute you seen your bubs i have my 12 weeks scan in the morning i can not wait

 

[lolalei3]

Back to work tomorrow, not really looking forward to it. Will probably need to tell boss as there is a fair amount of heavy lifting and long hours, also a 45min commute there and back so might be nice to have an excuse for not being 100% up to par!
Hope everyones well, tmr good luck for your scan tomorrow! how exciting!

 

[bunda]

being at work makes the time draaaaaaag by. I'm also often quite wooly-headed and no one knows why. I'm nibbling crackers all day, so they probably think I'm some sort of food addict.

Since your job involves heavy lifting, you'll probably have to tell sooner rather than later. I don't know how I'm going to break the news to my boss - or when.

 

[puppycat]

Good luck for your scan tomorrow.

Mine's a week Wednesday and i really hope they find something because it'll make me feel like this constant bloody sickness is worth it!

 

[struth]

Evening ladies :wave: Welcome to the new ladies!! Glad you have found us.

Puppy - I know exactly how you feel. Can I ask what sickness pills you have? Did you get them from the dr? I think I might need to get some if this carries on.

Tmr - good luck tomorrow honey.

I have got my scan tomorrow too - I'm nervous as I had a mmc in August at about this stage in my pregnancy. I'm hoping for a nice strong heartbeat tomorrow.

Oh - and I'm loving the bumps!!

 

[puppycat]

Yes sure, Dr prescribed Cyclizine. I can take up to 3 in a day. They have helped a lot but i now know what smells to avoid so that helps too! Lol
