March Munchkins 2017 - calling all March Mummy's to be:)

[TattyHead]

My little one wasn't being co-operative so no NT measurements and not a great picture, but baby's perfect regardless.

I was born in Yeovil hospital Ellie, was brought up in Crewkerne but moved up north when I was 18

Ladies, I am sad. My 12 week ultrasound is in 2 days but we just got the bill for the dating one and it was $150, apparently insurance didn't cover it, so now hubby is saying I can't have the 12 week one. I will call the insurance tomorrow and see what they say, or maybe if my doctor codes it differently if they'll cover it. Not holding out hope though. So disappointed. Been looking forward to it for weeks.

Milestone!! (For me!!)

I just ate a plate of dinner

I've not eaten in weeks so I am super happy!

Livvy - sometimes they only cover part of the cost...I haven't received any bills yet, but I know I'll be getting one for at least one of the scans I had...a lot of ins are really stingy about what they'll cover..definitely call up and see what they say...Maybe find out about the NT scan cost if they'll cover it

I'm tired and grumpy. 11 weeks today so impatiently waiting 10 more days for my 12 week scan 😫 I just want to announce it already!!

As for babies coming early and in Feb - my due dat is gonna be 27th or 29th March but I'm almost certain it will be an April baby - my bets are on April 1st

I'm interested if previous babies have come early or gone overdue, does it influence future pregs?
With my girl I was due Xmas day (even though I tracked ov and estimated my due date about a week and a half later). I actually went into labour Xmas day (10pm) and my girl was born 4am Boxing Day. I was always convinced I would go overdue since my mum did with me and my sis and my sis did with hers. My birth was also very quick and would have been much faster if my girl hadn't come out with her hand above her head like superwoman lol, made it impossible to push her out without intervention. Wonder how much this will influence my experience this time.

 

[Livvy]

Miranda I will definitely ask. Hoping they cover it.

Oxygen they had to use vacuum on my little guy due to his cord being around his neck and his heart rate plummeting every time I pushed. Hoping to have an easier labor this time..

 

[mel102]

Am glad the scans went well sepia and tattyhead

Livvy I really hope you get something sorted with your insurance

Yay for getting your appetite back Sarah hopefully things will start to get better for you now

AFM I had my scan today everything was good and am due 10th March

 

[elliecain]

So much good news on here. Congrats Mel! You are due exactly a week before me

 

[SweetV]

Livvy I hope they would cover it as it is a scan required to determine health issues and therefore should be required. I hope you get it sorted out.

 

[Livvy]

Thank you sweetv I'll call in the morning and update you all.

We went ahead and announced on Facebook today, was so fun! This was the pic we used and I said "some sunflowers bloom in March!" Then had some emojis to show the 3 of us becoming 4

 

[elliecain]

Livy, that's so cute! How did people react? I loved reading people's reactions to my news xx

 

[katestar53]

Awwww Livvy what a beautiful announcement! And your family is beautiful 💛 Hope you get your scan sorted!

Congrats to all the ladies who have had scans x

 

[sepia]

What a lovely announcement! And I really hope you get your scan covered. I'm really glad we have the nhs at times.

My ds was almost 2 weeks late so I am mentally preparing myself for the same this time. When he was born he was seriously ill and we spent quite a while in hospital. I am dreading the same thing happening again this time. He is absolutely fine now and I believe he is even ahead development wise.

 

[sewing_mama]

Hey everyone, I had my first scan yesterday too! Beautiful wiggly baby all looking good. Apparently I am 13+3 (a week further than I thought) and due date changed to 10th March. Told our little girl and she is excited.

 

[mirandaprice]

Livvy - love the announcement!

Sewing- congrats!

 

[Livvy]

Thanks everyone! Ellie people have been so positive in their reactions (at least on Facebook!), it's been lovely.

I called my insurance and it seems no ultrasounds are covered at all, only prenatal doctor's appointments. *sigh* seems like that makes no sense at all but whatever. I may go to a private place since I was so looking forward to this one.

 

[sarah0108]

That sucks livvy

And congrats sewing mama!!

 

[Livvy]

Congrats sewing_mama! How old is your little girl?

 

[Mattsgirl]

Thats so stupid that its not covered. But hopefully you can find. Provate place that does them cheaper. And your announcement is so cute!!
Tryi g to figure out how to do our announcement but can't come up woth anything cute.
