oh, do you have a potty shot we can look at?

 

[WunnaBubba2]

Thanks for sharing Fi! That is an amazign scan!

If it is confirmed a boy it will mean that we still only have 1 girl on our thread

 

[MamaBunny2]

Daphne that just amazes me that someone would say your DH isn't of any help to you in the delivery room but I never thought about the cultural differences. I most definitely want my OH with me! And that calculator... well I'm supposed to be between 143-148lbs by week 20 and I was 153lbs at my 18 week appointment My appetite has decreased a bit now so hopefully the numbers won't be too terrible at my next visit...

Jess glad to hear your scare was short-lived! No more of that please!

Dani I'm with ya!

That bump, Pamela! Love it! Getting closer, are you excited!?

Congrats on your boy Fi! I'm so convinced I'll be adding another girl to the group...

AFM we were super busy over the weekend! Painted both of the kids' new rooms, shampooed the carpets and moved their furniture and clothes and such.

My son's room:


My daughter's room:

(The darker purple paint has glitter in it!)​

Seems like we are getting so close to being finished with all of the renovations. Next on the list is the downstairs room just off of our new bedroom then last and most importantly... baby's nursery! Baby has been kicking regularly throughout the day, I love it! I even get swift jabs directly on my bladder and enjoy that as well 2 weeks exactly until we see our LO and (hopefully) find out what we are having

Jyllian the rooms look great!

Fi did they tell you it's a boy or can you just tell? I'm having my anatomy scan in a little less than 3 weeks and then not another 3 weeks til we will read the tech's analysis of the sex but i figure with our 3D scans we'll probably be able to tell. Or maybe we should ask for no potty shot! Haha

 

[mdscpa]

Cant wait to know what you're having Jyllian. Those rooms are beautiful and alive.... Be waiting to see how baby's room gonna look like...

 

[mdscpa]

Definitely a potty shot Cheryl or else you'll kill us all waiting

 

[MamaBunny2]

Ooh happy 17 week Cheryl! Can't wait to see bump and fruit/veg updates

 

[melewen]

Because I feel like we have to wait so long I guess I've kind of just bonded with this baby as being sort of unisex?! that sounds so weird. I guess we will change the nursery accent wall based on the sex but that's about it, otherwise I'd kinda like the surprise! I'm mostly excited about seeing LO and having a big party with all our friends and fam!

When is your next u/s? And how is Luca doing? He must be getting so big now

I've got what's supposed to be my 12 week scan at 14 weeks interested to know if he/she is still measuring ahead! We had our private gender scan at 16 weeks with Luca but we're not sure if we're going to do that again this time.

Luca is doing really well. Can't believe he's going to be 4 months old soon. Time goes so fast won't be long until we're making plans for his first birthday

 

[mdscpa]

Currently reading an article about "Birth surprises: 15 things moms didn't expect". I find some of mother's experiences were so funny I'm really sorry but i just can't help it...

Did any of you happen to catch this on the internet recently?
This woman has 6 BOYS and found out she's finally having a girl...

I love the rooms! They look amazing and I too cannot wait to see what you guys do with the nursery!

Yip I am getting excited... I have 5 more days then I'm on 30 weeks and then it is 10 counting down to single digit weeks till birth

Jyllian the rooms look great!

Or maybe you should ask for a potty shot, post it here and not look We NEED to know the gender!

Ah yes time is flying by so quick! I'm glad that he is doing well

Are you back at work yet after ML?

 

[mdscpa]

Bookmarked another page that i find very helpful esp. to first time mommies.

[Kirsty3051]

Maternity leave is over towards the end of May. Looking forward to going back tbh! Miss the routine

 

[WunnaBubba2]

Cool and how long will you be back before you go on leave again you still amaze me!

 

[mdscpa]

Ok ladies i think i just jinx myself when i thought everything is going smoothly. I just went to the loo and got a very dark red spot when i wiped . Nothing painful though just BH. Now i'm worried googling everything. Will keep an eye on it and see if i need to ring my doc. Really great timing when we are about to visit a new hospital on Saturday.

 

[MamaBunny2]

I totally forgot to share this! So as my OH and I were going through things after moving the bedroom, he found a HPT but it was an old, used one that was a so not exactly sure WHY I kept it I decided to dip it just to see what would happen. I had to tinkle anyways...

​

It worked! The vertical blue lines are new, they showed up as the urine passed through, and the dark horizontal line is old.

Crazy right?!?!

I was gonna post this in the TTC forum... may save ladies some money!
