*March & April 2021*

That was me with Ella. Loved it until I knew it was a girl then my love for it faded lol.

I have my Elective “gender” Ultrasound tomorrow even though I know through NIPT. Just an excuse to see her and for DD1 to come. Though i do like to make sure the external parts match the dna lol
 
@alex_22, huge congratulations!!! I forget, what number baby is this for you? Names are so hard! We never settled on one until we met the baby! Our boys didn't have a name for so long, our youngest was a whole day old before we named him.
 
I'll be 9 weeks tomorrow and the nausea, headaches, fatigue, RAGE/weeping/both at once, severe insomnia... they're just getting to me. I am so grateful for symptoms and so reassured. But this is also the hardest first tri BY FAR. I've always had it so easy, and never lost my energy until the bitter end (like after 37 weeks). Maybe because it's baby 5, maybe because I'm 38, but man it's really rough. I have my first scan in a week, it cannot come soon enough!!!
 
@KylasBaby haha great. Looking forward to having a full beard by the time the baby is born then :p

@SCgirl glad everything was okay at your scan :)

@tdog thats good news about your baby being low risk. I’m glad we’re all getting on a bit with things so we can starting being less worried about all the concerns! I’m almost at the end of my 12th week so glad miscarriage changes are decreasing.

@alex_22 congrats on it being a girl!! I know some people go for Isla too which is different :)

AFM I told my brother yesterday! He was the first person I told and he seemed happy for me which was a relief and he seems to think my parents will be over the moon. I’m hoping he’s right. We’ve booked flights to go see them in a couple weeks to tell them so hopefully COVID doesn’t get in the way of that. Really want to tell people face to face where we can.

This is baby number 3 for us, we already have 1 of each

thank you very much everyone :hugs:

I’m planning on booking a 4d scan but only if the kids will be able to come were under a local lockdown atm but I think a national one is just around the corner. I just want the kids to be able to experience the joy of seeing baby on the screen with us

I can bring 4 people to this place regardless of age. Just taking DD1. To heck with everyone else lol. But I did add in a video of it as I know my mom will want to see, at least. Is that an option for you? If the kids can’t come is it possible to have it recorded somehow?
 
@tdog, you and me both! never found out with any of them. I'm feeling girl, though :) Haven't been wrong yet...
 
I don’t know how people don’t find out. I want to know at conception! Lol. Also if it would’ve been a boy I would’ve needed a loooong time to adjust.

I found out with four of mine the only one I didn't was my second :haha: the one I thought was a girl was my fourth and he is most definitely a boy :rofl: my last I had a feeling girl and she is I have a feeling this one girl but I could be wrong :haha: xx
 
We’ve never found out until birth. My husband was keen to the first time, but then he said afterwards it was so great finding out at the birth so that’s what we’ve always done.

with my first I definitely thought girl (she was) but everyone kept telling me it was going to be a boy for some reason?! So I believed them.

second I knew was a boy

third I had no idea (girl)

this one I think boy.
 
I have a feeling I'm having a boy this time, with my 3 girl pregnancys I was so sick, but with my boy pregnancy I wasn't sick, im nearly 9 weeks now and I havent been sick or really felt that sick (I might regret saying that lol) x
 
I think sometimes I like to think mother nos what the gender is I think with my last I new she was a girl but I kept putting boy in my mind :rofl: xx
 
Awwww yay, this is a strong girl thread. Im loving it.

I have this overwhelming gut feeling that I'm having a girl.

8+2 today and have my first MW appt on Tuesday. Its a telephone appt, then I'll have to go in for bloods after. I dont think that'll happen this week because of the cough. I've not been able to sleep at all for the past 4 nights, but last night I finally managed 6hrs sleep without waking up coughing :happydance:

Back from holiday and back to reality.... sucks
 
Nobody wants to know what this final last baby is...except for me :) so that's what I am planning on doing. I will just end up buying neutral "bigger" items, and putting the clothes/blankets, gender items in a bin. I'm pretty sure I can keep the gender a secret just because...I'm the one that does the laundry, goes shopping, etc...

In the family, everyone wants another girl...so I'll have two girls, two boys....so I think if I find out that we are having a girl (the anticipation and excitement) may slip up; and if I have a boy, I think my DH will be a little disappointed, but he will get over it.

7+3...things are going well. I do work in the Food Industry, so I have been noticing queasiness only when we are not busy (which isn't very often). Luckily, I only work 5 hours (Tuesday-Friday), I just try to have mints with me at all times, and eat when I can.

Non pregnancy related, I found out yesterday that the middle school (in our town) had a positive Covid case. Luckily, that's the only one, that I know of...thankfully my kids weren't exposed since they are in Elementary School. Anyone else scared of this Covid?

Personally, with Covid I'm scared, but my doctor is keeping a close eye on me, with me working and the kids going to school; and the older one in sports...he wants to make sure that I'm safe...doctor texts me if I feel any sort of "sick" that I text him and he will get me in to make sure everything is okay.
