I think the three Be's are a bit much, but Betty is also an abreviation of Elizabeth, so perhaps Bella Elizabeth, to sorta honor your grandmother but keeping away from the 'Be Be Be'!? lol I know Betty isn't ONLY an abbreviation of Elizabeth though, and your grandmother was just as likely to be Beatrice or something and still be stuck with a heap of BE's! lol!! But just a thought....

Oh sarah.. that was totally cute of what you did for DH's bday..
go for your trip !!1 sounds very exciting.. everyone is giving you the thumbs up !!
AFM, well the answer to your question is that my mum in law and me dont get on very well.. but we do have to get along in circumstances.. its not that bad.. just like fire sparks and i never know whats going to happpen.. so i have to be careful with everything i say because i never know what could trigger an argument.
she never takes any news about anything in an excited way so it was as i expected.. no response at all from her end.. but thats what i expected so im not upset AT ALL.. Because my parents and my entire extended family who live in dubai are soo happy and are showering enough love for two families together and thats what keeps me going ! so im staying positive.
flying............................................................ AS I MENTIONED BEFORE
CONGRATULATIONS !! our flying is offically the first to go on to second tri.. which is to be followed by NY !!! its going to be a party !!xxx
NDH, i read all the posts but didnt come across the one in which you mentioned you are moving house?? congrats ! we are moving in the next two weeks as well..

Sheryl, even though her name wasn't an abbreviation you can still USE something like Elizabeth (if you like it!) to honour her if you wanted...
Dew, it's too early for her to know what gender she's having at all, but perhaps she's already thought of a boys name, or simply wasn't thinking of them at the time; I know I'd often think of "if I had a boy, I could call him '_____'..." lol. I thought that sorta thing looooooong before I was even TTC, and once we started TTC, we decided on names before we ever for pregnant! lol.
heh, and thank you Preethi!

Preethi - I may not have mentioned it earlier in this thread 
I can't keep straight what I've mentioned where. We've been living with my parents for what seems an eternity (5 months for DH, nearly 11 for me) and have started getting serious about finding our own place.

I'm totally not doing a very good job of keeping up with this thread.
Sheryl - i think Kristin Isabella Behr sounds really nice.
As for knowing the gender - it is too early, but a lot of people (myself included) get a pretty strong feeling early on as to what the gender is. And about 80% of the time they are right.
My obgyn does this little calculation for fun at the first appointment to 'predict' the gender. I asked him the accuracy last time as he predicted girl for me last time and i said i was pretty sure it was a boy (at 8 weeks) and it turned out i was right. He said his calculation at that point only held about a 60% accuracy, whereas mother's intuition has about 80% accuracy.
so although sheryl doesn't know for a 'fact' what she's having, if she's got a pretty strong feeling that it's a girl she's very probably right.
Going to see if i can upload my scan pic now. Dh went and scanned them all onto one page (got about 8 pics), so i need to first see if i can crop out just one image.

Lovely scan Not much to see at this stage, but you can tell there's a baby for sure.
That's exactly what Preethi's baby has done too. (Except since she's had so many we all got to watch it catch up to the proper date)

Yip - it was just a blob with a heartbeat - but the heartbeat was what i wanted to see so i was happy 
I remember from the last time that the first 2 scans are pretty much just blobs. 8 weeks was blob with heartbeat, 11 weeks was blob with hearbeat bouncing around (with little tiny arms flapping at it's side).
Then suddenly at 12+6 it was like a totally real baby - the tremendous change was really weird and totally cool!

wow NDH long time to be staying with your parents but at the same time it must be fun to have so much company and cooked food brought to your plate at all times !
x hope you find a nice place of your own soon.

Nah we do our own cooking. When DH wasn't here yet I did eat with my parents a lot, but he eats so much they said they couldn't afford to feed him too 
so we hooked up our own fridge and prepare all our own meals. The company is all right, but at this point I'd give anything for our own space. And you can only live with your parents for so long before tempers start to wear thin (about 5 months ago lol)
