So pleased for you!I emailed my OBs office and they got back to me 5 minutes later!! Baby is negative for genetic issues and
ITS
A
*drum roll please*
sneak peek was right. Most of my skull theory guesses said boy lol.
The first weeks are rough aren’t they you feel like your just crawling along. I found those weeks hard, You can’t have a good twist to anyone because no one knows, it’s just such a relief when your past that ‘danger zone’ and it’s a happy time instead of a worrying oneYay so glad baby looks good! Sorry it was rushed. Can’t wait to be as far along as you are!!
I feel the same about my parents. I think the news will be met with a kind of shrug of the shoulders. It's my third baby but first with my new partner (and his first) so it's incredibly special. We have already told his parents and they are over the moon. I'll tell mine when we next see my dad and my mum on the phone around then (he's miles away and she lives in Spain). At some point I have to tell my boys (which will be fun) and their dad (which will not!). Families!Yes!! I am already feeling trepidation when it comes to sharing our news... I am overjoyed but I had so many weird responses even when announcing baby 3, let alone 4 and now 5. Especially where I live it is NOT the norm. DH’s parents and my sister/his brother (they are also married! It’s the best!) are always nothing but wonderful and supportive. But even my parents were so weird when I told them I was pregnant with baby 4. I want to be confident and own it, and I will... but it’s hard to have people you love react weirdly. I don’t care about anyone else (neighbors, strangers) but those close to us have the power to really affect us.
So pleased for you!
I had my scan today everything looks good I’ve been put back 2 days but she only measured baby once and that would have ment I got a positive pregnancy test at exactly 3 weeks pregnant which I doubt but my dates have been changed I’m now due March 3rd, it was lovely seeing baby but felt extremely rushed was only getting scanned 4 mins max, would have been nice to have a chance to just watch baby move around but never mind i have a gender scan in 3 weeks hopefully that’ll feel a little less rushed

Awww hi baby!Picture of little one, we did get some lovely photos, she was being lovely unlike her sister who was an awkward Annie at every scan.
We didn’t tell anyone we were trying as whenever I’d mentioned wanting another I’d get the why you have one of each they’re up now you don’t want to start again so I was really surprised when everyone was overjoyed for us. I can imagine it to be absolutely awful having the people closest to you not share your joy at such an important thing

If you have restless legs try giving up bananas. My FIL (obviously not pregnant) used to have really awful restless legs and as soon as he stopped eating bananas it stopped.
Sounds like some of you are really suffering in various ways. Hopefully these things ease off ASAP.
I just have a few hours of mild nausea every day. Which I am so thankful for atm. I’m waiting for it to hit badly like it did last time
Is this going to absolutely 100% be anyone’s last baby? My husband has sad absolutely no more, so one of the conditions of us ttc was that I get my tubes tied during my section. I feel happy enough with that, I think 4 is right for us.
They’re 9 and 6, I always said I wished my youngest was another boy so that I had a reason to try again. I bet I wouldn’t have had to wait another 6 year if she wasLovely pic!!
How old are your other kids? I remember when I had my son (After having my daughter) people used to say we were a perfect family now. As if having anything other than one boy and one girl is somehow imperfect
I think mil will be happy about a new baby in the family, but I do think she’ll be very shocked. That’s why I don’t wanna tell her one FaceTime. In case her face gives her awayI remember telling them about no3, well we let the kids tell them, and she was
at us for a good few moments!
