Hurray for a better night! Unfortunately I think your dd must have made a deal with mine as my dd woke at 3.30 this morning and came into bed with us! She settled pretty quickly but still disturbed me the rest of the night.

Just been having cuddles with 2 and a half week old baby. So squishy and lovely!! The mum already has 2 young children so it was quite a noisy house!!

Doctor didn't ask me to call back or come in at all. Just been left to get on with it and figure what's going on by myself! Which isn't great. Lucky I have such knowledgeable friends such as you guys to talk to! Maybe if the mc had been later on I would have been called in?

Oh no, these girlies or ours are little monkeys :haha: Glad she settled quickly.

Awwww how lovely! I've just seen a newborn in a carseat in Tescos.. I had to stop what I was doing and blatently just stared at him, so tiny and gorgeous!!!!

I think sometimes the internet is both a godsend and a nightmare at times! It's definitely made me worry more, but at the same time offers reassurance that what you're going through isn't out of the ordinary. :hugs:
 
OMG!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S A GIRLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!! We are so excited!
 
Thanks! Yes we are very happy. We would have been thrilled with either as long as they were healthy, but we have been wanted a girl so bad. My sister had all boys and there is only one girl on my hubby's side so needless to say my mother in law is DYING for a granddaughter, so is my dad even though he would never say so lol.
 
But most importantly, all the tests for genetic abnormalities were negative, so our baby is completely healthy! :):)
 
Lovely news! Congratulations!!

Do you have a scan pic??
 
No I'm still too early for a gender scan at 14wks. They did cf testing through bloodwork where they pull baby's DNA from my blood.
 
No way, didn't realise they could do that! Amazing!!

I've been looking at my scan pic, and the nub theory and think it's pink again! :D
 
I know! It's crazy!! I don't know anything about the nub theory and I suck at looking at scans to tell gender lol. Do you and the hubs have a presence at all? They are both so precious and I still can't believe that I get to have one of each!!
 
I think it would be nice to have a boy, as who knows if we'll go for a third, but I honestly dont mind as long as he or she is healthy.
 
Smawfl - I immediately thought girl when l saw your scan pic. Don't know why though. (We were sexing chickens the other day (as you do!) and someone asked us how we were doing it and all we could say is "because they look like a boy chick or a girl chick!!!)

DS - glad you got good news from the tests and bonus that you get the gender you wanted x
 
Lol mini.. It's funny as when I was pregnant with dd,several people said they thought it was a girl as 'they could see me with a girl '

DH thinks girl,and even before I was pregnant I felt I would have a girl again second time :)
 
Congrats Ds!!!! So exciting!

Puss I'm sorry for your loss, I am excited to hear good news from you really soon :):)

Wow these new babies are getting older quickly! Lol. I'll try to check back more often.
 
aww congrats!! what is cf testing exactly? Don't think I've ever heard of it
 
It's where they draw blood from mom and then pull the baby's DNA from that and then they actually look at baby's DNA to check for any genetic problems and can tell you the sex as well. It's a test like Maternity21.
 
They can do them any time after 12wks (maybe earlier I'm not sure). It's pretty new.
 
oh I see!! Is there a reason you needed to have it done or is it something voluntary you wanted to do?

I was NOT ready for a second when I had that pregnancy in May, but seeing all of you pregnant, as well as a lot of people I know irl, really makes me want another :wacko::haha:
 
It was mostly just elective by me. I am a huge worrier and wouldn't be able to just enjoy my pregnancy from worrying that something was wrong, and my mom has a potentially genetic diseas affecting the brain that almost killed her 12years ago and severely permanently mentally and physically disabled her and my sister had a touch of spinabifida when she was born. As bad as all that sounds there was still not much medical necessity for the test, it was pretty much because it would make me feel better.
