:happydance:22 Weeks and 0 Day(s) Pregnant :happydance:​

:yipee: 6 Month Mark.... 55% Complete, Only 45% Left :yipee:​



Ok, here's today's update... Went to our doc as per our appointment, same thing as usual. Q & A, BP is 120/80, weight from 58.50 Kls to 60.03 Kls and of course she listened to baby's heartbeat.. Asked me to have a Tetanus Toxoide injection had to asked her what it was for and said, in summary, for me and baby's protection. OK!!!!!... Had to wait 1 hour before i could get my vaccine... Then, we had another scan... longer one!!!!! :haha: Still cellphones and cameras are not allowed... But DH was so sneaky he took out his phone and started recording but we were already in the middle of the scan (video to follow). The yawning and lots of movement were missed :( ... Yeah, the baby was yawning and gulping fluid while it's hand was saying bye bye :hi: to us :D ... That was AMAZING..... Oh, and baby is measuring 23 weeks and 1 day, 1 weeks and a day ahead again.... And BABY is still a HE.....He grew from 440g at 21 weeks to 569 at 22 weeks which is off because they dated me at 23w1d.

Next visit will be on March 21st...

Here's the screengrab from the video DH took.... :dance:

Daphne what an amazing experience! Seeing him move I can only imagine you feel that much closer to watching those little arms stretch and little legs kick when he's "on the outside"!! So happy for you! Your dh is like a star too! Mine would be like honey it's illegal! He's a rule follower.... Prosecutor... Lame honey!! Hahah. I'm the opposite!

Kenna that's awful! I know how real pregnancy dreams can feel, I bet you still feel violated!

Pamela that is so sweet of your coworkers :) yes we are pee addicts!! I actually just got up to go and then got back in bed and was like no... Nooooo!!!! I forgot to use FMU!!! I'm so depressed.... :rofl: might as well test it anyway...

Jyllian what are you hoping for? That baking soda definitely looks boy to me! I actually tested my wee ph last night (I used ph strips during ttc to test for CM becoming more basic... Yes.. I am a nerd) and it was a 7, dead center. Not sure what that means! Hmm.... Google time:.
 
Dh really wanted a video so he doesnt care :lol: :haha: :rofl: cant wait to share the video.... :dance:
 
Another fun test for us that does not involve pee. Tummy lines! Daphne, yours looks textbook boy - it stops at the belly button. Mine is still light but looks like it's going to go to the ribcage (girl). I had 2 friends that said there's went to the ribcage - one had a boy and one had a girl.


Old Wives’ Tale – Linea Nigra

Latin for ‘black line’, a linea nigra may appear on your belly during pregnancy. This is a purple/brownish line which extends down the middle of your belly to your pubic area, about 1cm in width. It’s known that hormones cause the linea nigra pigmentation, but it’s not known why it forms in the vertical line that it does.

The old wives tale is this – if you get a línea nigra and it runs from your pubic area to your belly button only, it’s a girl, and if it goes all the way up from your pubic area to the bottom-most part of you rib cage, then it’s a boy.
 
Ok.. It's time for another test! According to Dr Ramzis research, the placenta is attached to one side of the uterus based on gender (like 97% of boys attached to one side, 97% of girls attached to the other.. Pretty high numbers!). So let's so see those scan pics!

Here's mine..

So in the photo everything is obviously on the right, but that would mean it's aftually on the left side of the uterus right, because of how the ultrasound works? They don't flip ultrasounds or anything do they, to represent a "facing out" version?
 
This confused me too! Funny we both posted tests lol
 
Ha! Dani we are addicts to the core! So I just read transvaginal exams will show the placenta on the actual side it's on (so mine is on the right) and abdominal will need to be flipped for the answer, so if mine HAD been abdominal it would be attached on the left
 
Hahaha I think they tested it mostly at 6-8 weeks. Where was it primarily attached then?
 
Mine was transvaginal so that makes this a right implant?

This was transvaginal so baby was on the right?

Right means what and left means what Cheryl?

Linea nigra - Daphne's goes all the way up, it's just not as dark after the belly button. Mine is the same way. My mom was commenting on it two days ago saying I had a crooked seam. It is slightly off kilter which is funny. This test resulted in a boy point for me.

Placenta - I asked the doc which side the placenta was on and she said right, so that's another boy point.

Jess is right.. Boy is on the right and girl is on the left! If it's transvaginal it's the side you're looking at. Mine is CLEARLY on the right, like could not be more on the right. Dani I can't really tell with yours because it looks like.. up and down? The uterus? I wish I had known to ask at the time!!

I also POApH today and it was a solid 8!! That's how midwives typically tell early on what you're having - higher ph (6+ I think) is boy and lower is girl. Which is confusing.. because vinegar makes baking soda fizz, right, and vinegar is acidic.. but a high pH is more basic.. so you would think your pee WOULDNT make baking soda fizz if you're having a boy, since your pH would be higher.. omg brain. But it might just be early on? I know the midwives try to test 6-8 weeks
 
Yep, my linea nigra went all the way up to the middle of my breast but thinner not as thick as the line bellow my belly button. I read that when it pass your belly button its a boy otherwise a girl. It started below before the line shows up high.

Click to expand...

Both my OH and myself are hoping for a boy. I thought the baking soda pointed towards boy as well, but then again that could just be me being hopeful. Maybe I'm not using enough salt and wonder if I used more baking soda if it would really fizz. Perhaps my salt/baking soda to urine ratio is off :shrug: My OH said he just wants a healthy baby above all and part of me wouldn't mind a girl... that means we could TTC again! My OH is determined for a boy :winkwink:

Ok so where do I get these ph strips?!?! More stuff to pee on!

My doctor isn't in today :growlmad: go figure, but I faxed over the consent form to participate in the ultrasound program and will have it completed by tomorrow - fingers crossed! I'm so impatient :brat:
 
Ok, so DH is home already and he sent me a message that he forgot to take out the flash from his PC. He transferred the video from his phone. Guess we'll have to wait til tomorrow to see it. I was so excited to watch it... Urgh..... Guess he has pregnancy brain as well :haha:
 
Oh and almost forgot to share! I got a surprise package delivered to work today...
