[SevenElvesAndAReindeer]

Shiny new thread. Come and grab a and a .

Oh god 10 hope yur ok :-( .....must have been terrifying :-( thank god all is well xxx

Oh goodness 10, how scary - glad everything is ok xx

Have started feeling proper good movements too now, am loving it! Baby kicked so DH felt it last night, which was lovely as it was DD1's birthday :)

2nd try at anomaly scan on Fri

21+5

Hi all, back from scan but no amnio today, this was our third attempt but no luck so definitely booked in for next Tues at 8am. At least it means I can have a small glass of bubbly tonight!

Scan was all good, nasal bone finally checked (last time baby was upside down so couldn't be measured) and is fine.

Quite glad amnio has been pushed back as PIL over from UK next week so they can look after DD and then look after me!

10 glad everything was ok in the end.

Artigene hope your scan went well.

Hope everyone has a lovely, if sober, NY!

Forgot to say 20+1

10 that must have been so scary for you, I hope you are recovering ok

happy new year everyone! I finished Uni finally yesterday and have to say I am dying for a drink! I shall have a lovely glass of cava with my steak dins () laters and cannot WAIT. Such a booze hound

am shattered atm, is anyone else?

10 Glad everything is ok.Its awful having a scare.Hopefully having had it checked out so promptly you can relax and enjoy the New Year.

I can't wait for my one glass of champagne.All I've had over Christmas so far is one and a half glasses of Buck's Fizz.

Scary stuff 10 but glad all ok & you're reassured for the big day!

I'm also looking forward to my one glass of fizz at midnight. Loving a hangover free festive season mind

Looking forward to spending some exciting months with you ladies, thanks for the company so far

20+2

Happy New Year to you all.We opened our envelope last night and are having a boy.So 3 ds's for me.I feel truly blessed.Everyone in the venue we were at wanted to place bets on the sex so we raised £1400.We have decided to give the money to an Autism charity

Ah Beautician, that's lovely. I'd love lots of boys!
So many boys on this thread!

Happy New Year everyone!

Glad everything is OK 10 - that must have been horrible.

We had a very chilled out NYE - just curry out with a couple of friends. It was lovely. Funny to think how different things will be next year.

We bought a bugaboo on ebay and went to pick it up yesterday. It's beautiful - used for less than a year and looks like new. So pleased that DH persuaded me to go down the 2nd hand route - we saved £600 on the new price. It's in the hall at the moment until we can be bothered to carry it upstairs. I keep seeing it and realising again that we're actually having a baby!

Totally shattered today after a late night - so much to do in the house but can't get off the sofa.

Hope you're all having a good day.

Thank you.

I will admit I had a twinge of sadness that I will never have a daughter.DP would have preferred a girl.However, I know how lucky I am to have teo healthy children and another on the way.Im hoping to be treated like a princess by all my boys bring the only female in the house

Two and being. Doh

Hi, just joined, hi... Am 18 weeks 5 days! Lovely to read about all of you at same point!

Hi sisi8 welcome to the thread xxx

Off for anomaly scan this morning :-))) so excited but scared too xxx

Hi Sisi welcome.When is your next scan due?

Shelly Good luck with the scan.You already know the sex don't you? Hope baby is in a good position if not jumping worked well for me

Hi all and welcome Sisi

Glad everything was fine 10 what a horrible scare!

Had my scan on NYE and all fine - yet another one for the blue team here! Seems like May is going to be a month for boys!
So excited, seems very real now, not that it didn't before but ykwim!
We think we're going to go with Thomas as a name and it feels good to be able to speak about him as a person and not an abstract 'it'

CupofTea Congratulations.Ds2 likes Thomas for a boy as its his middle name.We can't decide so far on list: Oscar, Jacob,Zachary,Maximus,Finley,Jude and Kean.

Well done all on the scans....we found out we are having a boy!!! Howmany boys are we up to on here?? I'm absolutely thrilled although I was a little tearful on the evening we found out, not because I was disappointed but because when I didn't know which it was, I had images of both in my mind and a list of girls names. I hadn't expected to feel upset saying goodbye to one. It would have been the same either way. But it was an emotion I wasn't prepared for. Had to explain to DH as he thought I was dissppointed. Anyone else have this?

beaut I understand what you're feeling, DH's family all seem to have same sex children so started thinking I may be a mummy to all boys and how I'd feel not having another girl in the house, then my sister said 'but that would be great, you'd be like Peggy Mitchell!' ....it did make me laugh!

My family are mostly girls so my boy is going to be a bit of a novelty! I've bought him some clothes and toys but no big stuff yet, will do soon as need to start storing the purchases.

Good luck shelly

OK I've done the count up! As far as I can tell the running total is:

Boys:15 (picklep, cuppa, beaut, 10, wilde, chottie, betsy, frankie, mwncigirl, secretcervix, artigene, wirrawoo, tas, flaming, seasalt)

Girls:8 (roast, babygeek, reeny, berri, jenpen, shelly, sparkly, mamabrussels)

Surprise:5 (bunny, twinkling, littlespade, terracotta, geordie)

Sorry for anyone I've missed/got wrong - do make corrections!

Mine is a surprise too - got another go at the anomaly scan on Friday, hopefully we don't accidentally find out what it is because of all the extra scans we are having :) Not the end of the world if we do, of course!

Ooh there's alot of boys on here. I still have to wait until next week.
