November rainbows 2014 (We had our babies!!!<3)

[Leliana]

Congratulations Nanninoo!! Team Blue!! That is wonderful I had totally forgotten about the psychic - oh well, not such wonderful news for her

Yep, my next scan is the 20 week one! All being well it will be my last one too. As I am low risk I am only entitled to two scans. I am really hope LO has legs wide open so we get a good potty shot. If not DH has promised we can have a private scan to find out the gender. So that is something!

Everyone thinks I am having a boy but I think I'm Pink. I just see myself as a mother of 'girls' although I would be thrilled either way

 

[Anniebobs]

I was induced too, I had pre-eclampsia. I think that's why I reckon I'll go over this time, I am staying positive that this will be a healthy pregnancy with no complications and a big fat baby at the end!

Leinz that must have been so scary. It must have been so hard for you and dh.

 

[Anniebobs]

Am I the only one staying team yellow?

 

[Leinzlove]

I would think so Anniebobs! I don't know how you do it!

We have 2 and 1 in here right now...

Leliana: No problem with all girls... I'm swinging that way. We are planning one more maybe if I can get a routine down and atleast my oldest in school. Even then just one last shot.

Well, I hope baby is cooperative and shows you a nice shot. I would advise keeping hydrated and drinking something cold and sugary right before you go in.

It sure was scary! It's crazy, my firstborn is 1 in 800,000! She's a doll though. So very blessed!

I go today to the baby Dr. (Doppler Appt.) But I should have a date for my 20 week scan... Can't wait to see this lil lady again.

 

[Leliana]

I'd be happy to stay Team Yellow if DH wanted to - but he absolutely loves finding out! I think there is something special about waiting but I am naturally quite impatient so I am definitely happy to know

Leinz - perhaps you could update the front page with which team we're on? Good luck at your doppler appt - it is so wonderful hearing the heartbeat, that never gets old! I agree, I definitely have no probs with all girls, I adore my DD!

Annie - I had my DD at 42 weeks on the dot, so I am certain I am going over

 

[Leinzlove]

I definitely will. I'm not even sure... if we have the due dates correct anymore?

So, take a look at the front page and let me know your updates...

Let me know your EDD if its wrong, your gender or when you are finding out gender. I will update Annie with team .

I like this thread...

 

[Nanninoo]

Anniebobs I would of liked staying team yellow to have a surprise at the end of it all but OH is so impatient he wanted to know the gender with DS and with this pregnancy as well so I decided to find out but people who stay team yellow I think it's extra special for them it must be wonderful

Me and the OH said we would like to have 1 more baby maybe even 2 more I always said I wanted 3-4 children I'm 1 of 3 also I'm hoping I will be on team pink in the future I said to OH he's got his work cut out I really see myself being a mum of boys I would love a daughter but I can't picture it....let's see what the future holds but for the time being I will be kept busy by 2 little boys

X

 

[Leinzlove]

I can't see myself with boys either. But I couldn't ever with girls. It does feel good when there is another chance!

 

[Nanninoo]

Leinzlove just checked first page my edd has changed to 27th November x

 

[Leinzlove]

Updated.

Have a great day ladies! I'm off to the Dr. to hear this little lady! And I'm hoping I get a 20 week scan date to look forward too.

 

[Nanninoo]

Exciting stuff leinzlove have a good day can't wait to hear when your next scan is

 

[Anniebobs]

My due date is now the 27th as well leinz. I probably would have found out with dd but dh didn't want to, so I went with it. I loved the guessing all the way through, people being CERTAIN I was having a boy because of how I was carrying or whatever. Then us finding out together once she was born, so nice. Now I wouldn't do it any other way. We barely discussed it this time!

Have a good appointment leinz.

 

[Leliana]

I agree Annie, there is something very special about being Team Yellow Most of my friends leave it as a surprise too so we spend all 40 weeks discussing what they might have!

I will be interested to see how many of you will give birth in November or if you'll go over to December. I was one of the earliest in my group with DD and almost the last one to give birth!

I really like this thread too Best of luck today Leinz!

 

[Leinzlove]

I heard baby on the Doppler. Then I went to the hospital for the triple screen blood test. I waited 2 HOURS! It was so busy.

Then I went to schedule my ultrasound, also at the hospital. And my Due date was November 24... I asked the receptionist to check twice.

My Dr. never mentioned the change and my scans have been measuring on. So, I don't know if my EDD changed or not. But in case it has, I'm putting myself back until I hear otherwise.

It doesn't mean much being put back 2 days. And I actually like it. My 20 week scans have been 19+2 each time. HOW IRONIC? And if I happen to have another induction I will be having this baby on my actual anniversary 39+2. (I had both of my previous girls at 39+2 as well.)

How can the dates line up like this? It's so odd.

Leliana: I want a November baby! I'm going for a Anniversary baby! I don't want to go over.

 

[Nanninoo]

Leinzlove my dr put me a day back from my LMP which was 26th nov but at my scan he said it was more like 27th but it's only a date when I had my gender scan on Thursday they said I was measuring about 5-6 days ahead so again my due date could change altogether I think at my growth scans further down the line my dr will decide what date to book for my induction! But I agree with you it's very odd but nice as well

Well I saw mw yesterday bp was fine, blood tests results came back ok and urine sample was fine she didn't use Doppler and won't do until my next appointment but that's ok as I use mine at home so I have reassurance she also gave me my downs screening NT results and my number was 1 in 4300 which is great news i now don't see my mw until 28 weeks so that will be beginning of September seems so long away but I'm sure it will fly by x

 

[Leinzlove]

Nanninoo: That's the next time you see your midwife? I go every 4 weeks until about 28 weeks, then its every 2 weeks until the last month which is every week.

I just found it strange... As no one ever told me my Due Date changed. It was just the lady who schedules ultrasounds. I've decided to go with it regardless. As I know the date is closer to O and if I need an induction this time... I will have that anniversary baby. I just don't want to go over.

I've never had a due date change from LMP before. With Zoela... I was 5-6 days behind and it didn't make a difference.

 

[Nanninoo]

Yeah I don't see her until 28 weeks now I was shocked! I saw her more frequently with DS but maybe because this is my second they don't see you as often not too sure

Does anyone know what the clear hole/circle is on the baby in the ultrasound? Is it the heart/stomach or something else?

 

[Anniebobs]

Pretty sure that hole is the heart nanninoo, I vaguely remember from dds 20 week scan.

I'll be seeing the midwife at 20 weeks (have to book in once I've had my scan) then again at 24 then I'll see the consultant at 27 weeks after my growth scan. Not sure about after that, probably depends how baby is doing.

I got my nt results through the post this morning and the risk is 'lower than 1 in 9859' which I am very happy with! This is going to be my take home baby.

 

[Leliana]

I think my baby must be measuring big as my due date is earlier than my O date would suggest (I know this because I was using OPKs). I expect to go over - I was two weeks late with DD. I was amazed to have a baby so close to Christmas in the end. I am so glad this baby will definitely be born in November!!

It differs so much with appointments doesn't it? Even in the UK. My next MW appointment is at 24 weeks, even though I'm a second time Mum.

Nanninoo - I think that is the stomach? Seems about the right place, it's too high to be the bladder. I have spot like that on DD's 12 week scan and it was the stomach

 

[Leliana]

Fab NT results ladies! Mine are a little higher at 1 in 1800 with this baby but still low risk
