*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

I could do with one of those maids here! That's great, as it's hard work so should make things easier for you!

Mommyberry I think I need to look into moving to India That would be heaven!

Kel & Yo_yo - Most definitely it is heaven. See me struggle out of bed and drag myself into the kitchen, my maid offered to cut the veggies for me while I cook, though it isn't a part of her job. So sweet of her

Living in India has its own pros and cons though. One of the cons being... I'm forcefully stuck to team Once I get my 20 weeks scan, I'm madly hoping that all you lovely ladies in here will help me guess the gender with the scan pics. I will never know otherwise!

They won't even scan between the legs?! So strange!

12 week scan tomorrow so excited and nervous!

I had a scan yesterday. Baby actually looked like a baby and not like a little blob as it did at 8 weeks. He was moving around and you could see the little arms and legs. Heart rate was 164

Kiki--hope the scan goes beautifully!

Geralyn--congrats! That's super exciting!

Ashley - They do scan between the legs. However, they won't show us or give us a picture of that shot. They kinda turn the screen away from us.

Well, I understand that law is made for greater good as there is too much sex selection that happens here. But for couples like us who would be happy with either one, but are just curious to know and prepare, it is quite torturous not to know.

On the upside, it is a true surprise in October and there is a thrill of holding the baby while we get to know. I also see there are many advocates of team in this forum too! So it is probably for the best!

I am 12 weeks today. I have my ultrasound tomorrow. I'm so excited to finally see the baby.

 

[Yo_Yo]

Good luck for ultrasounds coming up ladies can't wait to hear all about them!

Rbourre-happy 12 weeks!

GeralynB-oooohh I notice you say 'he' do you have a feeling it's a boy?! Glad scan went well.

 

[Yo_Yo]

14 weeks today! 2nd tri!

Happy 14 weeks!

Ljo1984-happy 14 weeks to you too!

And happy new week to anyone else I may have missed! We seem to have a few new weekers at the weekends!


In bed at the moment, had a terrible nights sleep...my cat is snoring keeping me awake now though!

 

[mommyberry]

My bloodwork reports jus came in. All seems to be perfect except Vit D deficiency... for which I'm sure my doc will put me on supplements.

Now I'm in the clear to make FB announcement...yay! I picked this idea off the internet and added my own personal touch to it.

I have referred to baby as he from the beginning. I really do think it's a boy. It'll be fun to see if I'm right in a few weeks

Cute mommyberry!

We have booked our gender scan appointment! We will be finding out on the 19th Hopefully baby cooperates but if not they let you come back again for free. It is a 2 hour drive though! I'm so excited! My sister is going to come with us, and my dad might be able to make it, too. They said we could have anyone we wanted because the rooms are big so I thought I'd invite them, and my sister was really happy that I asked her to come. Can't wait!!

So a little over a year ago I got the flu, and all I had in my stomach was peanut butter cookies, and I haven't been able to eat it since. Right now, I want some sooooo bad! Ew! I don't want to give in.

 

[GeralynB]

Baby was fist pumping during the scan yesterday lol

Aw that's cute!

 

[kittylady]

I feel huge, it transpires that what I thought was bloat is actually bump and its been growing since 8 weeks so now I look the same as when I was 5 months pregnant last time at 3 months, I'm lucky I've told my work!

I actually felt the baby move the other day, really weird but it definitely wasn't gas and I have felt it once or twice since in the last few days. Things seem to be moving so fast this time.

 

[Laelani]

Does anyone know how early they can tell the gender of the baby at a private 3D ultrasound?? My parents offered to get one for us so we don't have to wait until the end of May to find out.

 

[GeralynB]

My sister is a sono tech and she is going to try for us at 14 weeks to find out the gender but she said it may be too early

I want to get a 3D ultrasound this month as there is a really good special going on at a private ultrasound place here. I will go at 16 or 17 weeks. Do you think it would be pretty accurate at that point? I keep seeing mixed reviews online.

I'm 13 weeks today! I've finally told all family and announced on facebook. Nothing fancy, just saying hey I'm pregnant!

I swear I've felt the baby move today. I'm not too sure but there was a feeling in my lower abdomen that I have never felt before. It went on for about 10-15 minutes.
