JD and tryinforfirst - lovely pink news!!!

littlenibble - congrats on the boy! great pic!

Nicola - I haven't had spot on my body but my face has been terrible! I feel like a teenager again! I have noticed that they tend to heal quicker than usual though? I've been using the bio oil too - my friends all swear by it. And it is quite relaxing too to put some time aside to lather it on!

Nicola - never too early to start a countdown (look at my ticker!). I've got 19 sleeps to go...

Welcome Luv2 - congrats on your pregnancy and welcome to the group!

I'm jealous of all you people feeling movement. I keep thinking that I *might* feel flutterings but I can't be sure that it is baby. There has been nothing obvious yet and anything I have felt could easily have been wind! Hurry up baby!

aw dont worry you will feel baby soon! i just did for the first time yesterday and ill be 20 weeks tomorrow! When it happens you will know!
 
Just had a peak at the front page and we are definitely weighted towards team pink on this thread at the moment! We need some more team blue to even us out.

I think I might be team blue... 18 more sleeps until I find out! :coffee:
 
I sometimes wish we weren't either.... but then I gave OH the decision and he has made it. I really think knowing will help him bond too - he's not good with abstract things and I guess it is quite abstract for the men until the baby pops out. We have been putting off any talk of names or anything like that until we know gender. Hopefully once we do know he can start to put an identity to the baby and start thinking about it as a baby rather than a pregnancy.

Does that make sense?
 
Yeh. We can't think of a single boy name we like so i'm a bit worried! Lol
 
I think boys names are really hard - we have loads of girls names that we both like. Boys names, however, we just can't agree on OR we know people already with the names that we like!
 
Morning ladies! I think team blue here too. One week and I'll know for sure!
Ruth - what you said totally makes sense. Men often need more information to grasp the idea. At least I think so! My DH always wants to talk to the baby but he then says "I dont know what to say!" So I think knowing the gender will help him think of things to say to the baby, too!
 
I'm thinking team pink but still have another 3 weeks to find out!!:growlmad:
We have a girls name all picked out that OH chose but neither of us can think of a good boys name...we've used up all the ones we liked!!:haha:
 
Hello ladies!!! Glad to hear everyone is finding out babies gender. Congratulations to you all!!! I think I'll be a part of team blue...a lot of this pregnancy reminds me of my first, where I had my son. My next appointment isn't until the 22nd, and at that appt my 20 week will be set-up. Seems like a whole lot of waiting to me...ugh...but I'll be extremely excited to find out whenever!!!
 
aw time will fly by! believe me i can't believe I am already 20 weeks! its kinda scary how fast its going!
 
Im so upset. My doctor dropped the ball with my 20 week scan and put the requiaition in late and now I have to wait until april 17th and I will be almost 24 weeks by then....im so sad.
 
I have my 20 week scan on Tuesday. I can't wait to see peanut again. Although I know he/she is fine because of all the jumping around in my uterus lol
 
Ugh! My DH is so f*ckin self absorbed. I asked him how many weeks i am today and he says 'i dunno' and looks completely not bothered. Ok i don't expect him to remember exactly but given he knows i have my 20 weeks scan in 2 weeks it should be worth a guess right?!

He's been really distant anyway and tbh i'm getting fed up of trying.
 
aw puppycat, I'm sorry! Men are dumb! I feel like my DH is stuck at 14 weeks lol. He knows when the due date is, but he always thinks I'm 14 weeks. I think he just has a hard time believing that this is progressing so quickly. I get weekly emails about what's happening "this week in your pregnancy" so I started forwarding those to him. Now every monday he gets an email telling him how far along I am and what fruit our baby is this week :)

TTCinBC, I'm so sorry! That would be really upsetting for me too!

I also think we are team blue, I have since the beginning! I'm going to be SO shocked if I find out its a girl! 18 days!
 
TTCinBC I'm positively sure that that sucks...I'm sorry your doctor dropped the ball and didn't get your request in in time...I can only imagine how anxious you are...but good things comes to those who wait....

puppycat I'm sorry your DH is being insensitive...some men are just not that into pregnancy until the baby gets here...my sister, a friend and I are all pregnant at the same time and 2 out of 3 men are insensitive....to get pass the insensitivity me and my friend spend a lot of time talking and hanging out together. It gets us pass the insensitivity and keeps us happy and stress-free.
 
Hello! I'm new to BnB and due August 29th!! This is my first and me and fiancé are very excited but also incredibly nervous. Could do with some bump buddies, hope everyone is well xx
 
TTCinBC that's really crappy :hugs: Hopefully the weeks will fly by for you.

puppycat that's not very nice of him, he could at least pretend to be interested hey! Do you know why he is being distant? :hugs:
 
Thanks ladies. Was really upset. I think it was more of a shock because usually they can get us in to the ultrasound clinic within a week or so here. So i definitely wasnt expecting it. Im ok with it now. Still not happy, but its okay. Im just impatient lol

Im sorry your DH is being like that puppy. They really are jerks sometimes. The email idea sounds like a good idea!

So i listened to baby on the doppler tonight and its only been a few days since ive heard it, but it sounds different? Its really strong now, but almost sounds like a double beat? I thought maybe baby has turned around since its so strong. But i thought that on tuesday night too. Also havent feltvmuch movenent the last few days. Does the sound of the heart beat change as they get bigger? I didnt have a doppler at gome with the last one
