Congratulations pearl, how special

Don't worry gag, I have to wait with you, till the 6th of March, we have to be 20 weeks too unless we go private. I'm eager but I'm trying to embrace this time where I am just connecting with the being themselves.

Yeah there is always the chance that they've got it wrong, I think it's about a 2% chance and it's usually girls that are mistaken, because if you see boy bits then it's supposedly pretty clear
I have growth scans so I usually get them to double check at 28 weeks xD

Yay pearl!!! Congrats

Leson- my 4th baby they messed up on. Said he was a girl. I also took the intelligender test that you use pee with and it said girl. I had no reason to think otherwise. Until they did another ultrasound and said boy!!! Our Jessa Dorothy became Jaxon Keely haha. I definitely like the nipt compared to u/s.

My 20wk isn't until 10th March because we can only book it between that 20-21week at the hospital I'm under this time. I was surprised at how specific they are.

I've got growth scans too, and we want to stay team yellow. I'm concerned one of the sonographers or the consultant will let it slip at those appts, I really want to stay yellow again

They were also really strict about having my anatomy scan at 20 weeks. I thought it was because the baby was more fully developed then and so the results are more accurate?

Girly - I'm also slightly worried that a tech will slip or we'll see something and know. I'm just going to state at the beginning that I do not want to know. I'm so worried about drinking ALL of that water and then holding it for that long at 20 weeks! I just drank a quarter of a water from Starbucks and I already need to pee.

 

[blessedmomma]

Ladies I would definitely make it clear you don't want to know the gender before they start. You should definitely get to find out the way you want and not because someone made a mistake.

 

[Mummafrog]

I think they are usually quite happy when people are wanting a surprise because it's rarer and they try hard

Last time they asked me before they started whether we wanted to know or not, which I thought was good x

Hello everyone! I was traveling and busy over the weekend. Congratulations on the boy-girl twins! What a dream.

I went to a conference this weekend (a little annoying to fly while pregnant, but luckily no delays). I wore tight dresses so people could see I was pregnant, but I guess I'm not as obviously pregnant as I think, because I constantly had to turn down wine and cocktails! I did meet two other pregnant women there, and a lot of other mothers, and I heard some great advice about welcoming a second baby.

My anatomy scan is booked for 18w2d (just a week). I'd heard 18 to 20 was typical, at least at this practice, and I'm assuming it will be OK? My babies tend to measure ahead a little too. I'm bringing my son along since he hasn't seen the baby yet and I'm hoping it will make things more real. Other than that, my pregnancy has been going well! LOTS of movement.

I can't believe we're all approaching the halfway point. So many cool milestones ahead.

I was given the option to book my anatomy scan anytime between 18 and 20 weeks. I decided to book it for exactly 20 weeks (March 4) in the hopes that the baby will be more developed and it'll be easier to see/check everything.

Also, the clinic I go to has signs up saying that they will not tell any patients the gender of their baby. I never asked about this, but I'm assuming it's cuz they maybe want a 2nd opinion on the development of the baby and what the gender is before they actually say anything. I'll keep an eye out for an obvious penis (or not) though and then I guess my Dr will be able to tell me what I'm having at my next prenatal appt the following week.

I am going to wait with you girls since I have my OB/GYN appointment next week but he hasn't told me when to schedule my Anatomy Scan. I feel so weird in this pregnancy since with my daughter my OB/GYN has the ultrasound machine and he perform an ultrasound in every appointment. Very different now that I moved from state.

Pearl- Congrats on team purple!

AFM: I had my anatomy scan today and they had a hard time getting a good picture, but they said it looks like a girl? I wasn't sure about that answer.. But that is what we are going on for now... But I had a friend that they said it was boy then later found out it was girl so who really knows? But for now we are going with team pink And if anything changes I'll keep you updated...

 

[Maries_s]

Malia congrats on team
I was told at 13w6d that it looks that I'm having a boy so I'm hoping this not changes at my anatomy scan since everyone are very excited, especially my mom because this is going to be her first grandson. (She have 5 granddaughters!)

 

[Betty.Rubble]

I always worried with DD that she would turn out to be a boy Had a 4D scan to double check.

Not finding out with this baby but we think it's a boy x

 

[Catalyst]

[Aphy]

We are having a boy!!! Obgyn and DH both say they could see it clearly though I couldn't so taking their word for it. So happy that all is looking good! Of course nausea had to hit straight afterward just to remind me it's still hanging around and has left me feeling trashy all day it so so happy that all is looking good!
