October Rainbow Babies!!!

Forums New posts
Emerald, you're definitely not alone. I too feel like I'm almost just waiting for something to go wrong. We've had a pretty easy pregnancy thus far, except for minor BP issues. But it's just like I'm waiting. DH is kinda sick of hearing me constantly worry that something is wrong, and says I shouldn't think like that. It's kinda hard to, ya know? I wish he understood sometimes.
 
Just letting you ladies know I have my gender scan today.

Really, really excited but I'm so nervous, too. I guess I'm just expecting something to be wrong with LO. OH is doing his best to keep me positive, though, and I'm trying really hard, too. LO kicked me awake really early this morning as if to tell me "Wake up! I'm excited!" So that was a very comforting start to my day. :happydance:

I'll be sure to keep all of you ladies updated on if we're team :pink: or :blue: !
 
We're team...

:pink: !!

Our baby girl is healthy! Such a huge weight off of OH's and my shoulders. We need to go back in another 2-3 weeks for another scan. Our little girl just didn't want to stretch out or move around at all, so we need to get more pictures of her spine to make sure everything's okay.

I guess I'm a bit worried about that, because I want my baby girl's spine and everything to be okay.

We're naming her Cayleigh Jane. OH is so ridiculously happy. :) I hope all of your scans go just as well, ladies. :flow:
 
Eloquence! Congratulations!!!! :flower: I'm team :pink: too! :happydance: Had my scan yesterday. Tech looked and looked for over 20 minutes and couldn't see any boy parts, but she couldn't get the perfect "3 line" pic either so she gave us her guess, but said not to paint the nursery pink until I get confirmation at the next scan. :haha:
 
Congrats Eloquence and Mom2 on team pink! And a healthy perfect scan too! So excited for you guys!!

Mine's in 2 days! I'm getting those nervous feelings in my stomach already. But crazy excited too! Have the perfect gender reveal set up for our moms. I hope baby cooperates so it works!
 
And to update from this morning:

My little monster scared us!! Went in and she was tightly curled up that you couldn't see her heart and she had her back facing upwards so we couldn't see it from the back and the sonographer said "I can't find the heartbeat.." then realised she'd scared us and quickly told us it didn't mean anything bad just that bubs was in a bad position.

I then got sent for a 15 min walk and drank red bull to wake her up/make her move.. Went back to the scanning room and she'd stretched right out and her heart was pounding away the little monkey!!

She's measuring a few days behind but all looks well :) little stubborn girly!
 
Aww! What a stubborn little girl!! Glad she finally woke up and was able to show you that beautiful beating heart! Glad it went well!
 
Thank you! I know yeah, just wanted more screen time apparently lol. I've got an anterior placenta though :( no wonder I've not felt any massively hard kicks/movement yet x
 
Thanks, ladies! :D

Excited to hear an update from you, bumpy! :flow: xx Good luck!
 
Lol October babies seems like the team pink and anterior placentas month!!!
 
It does indeed Emerald! It wasn't mentioned at my scan, I just noticed it in my notes :shrug: it makes sense though. It's not a problem is it? x
 
Not at all :) Just means you won't feel things as early - which also isn't always true. I had my first outside kicks at 17 weeks and I have a HUGE anterior placenta.
 
If you need a c-section they'll assess you and may have to cut in a different location.
 
Ah I see! Lovely.. :dohh: I'm planning on a home birth, hopefully no section needed!

How you feeling today?x
 
Not too bad. I have to see the specialist next Thursday as I have a shortening cervix. Hopefully it's nothing but best to be safe. I'm surprisingly not obsessing over it. I'm just glad I'm being looked after before complications arise.
How about you? Good or bad day?
 
Yeah, fingers crossed all will be well! That's a good thing to keep in mind to keep you sane, at least they've found it now and can sort it if any problems come up.

Today is a surprisingly good day thank you! Only been awake an hour lol but I'm feeling a lot more positive about things after yesterday, realised there's no point worrying until things actually look like they're going wrong x
 
Yeh, I try to have that attitude but it never works lol. Glad you're having a good day.
Have you felt any movements at all yet?
