April 2014 - Thread 2 or 3 depending on which way you count!

[LeeHandy]

Hello ladies.. the previous thread is almost full so I thought it's time to move on to a new one to mark the start of trimester 2. Here's to fewer bouts of sickness and more "glowing" all around!

do we have a list of names and due dates etc? if not can we make one??

i am getting excited already even though i'm only 10 weeks lol. although also feeling worried about my 12 week scan just in case something is wrong :-/

anyway, if there isn't already a list i'll start with me:

bundaberg 25/4/14 sex unknown

ooh and are people going to find out the sex?

i didn't with my other 3, but kind of wonder what it would be like, so tempted to do so for this one! can't decide

We are going to find out! Hate calling him/her "it", but "the baby" is a bit long winded. Should find out together with the Downs result in a couple of weeks.

Oh, and here is the stats thread!

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/1823786-April-14-Stats-Thread

Have updated the stats thread :)

3 of us for the 25th now!

have your previous ones been early/late/on time?

We are going to find out the sex, hopefully all will be well at the 20 week scan as its oh birthday 2 days after the scan so thats his present sorted hehe.

I definitely want to know the sex. Last time little monster was curled in a ball and no amount of belly poking and jiggling could get her to show us her bits! Had to wait until she was born. It was a lovely surprise though. This time I am not at all bothered boy or girl, just want to know what colour to paint the room!

i'm really undecided. As I say, last 3 times we didn't find out, but by the end with DS3 I was just desperate to know!!!
I am worried that if it's another boy I'll feel disappointed though. obv we didn't try for another baby just in the hope it'd be a girl but I'm just worried I will anyway! whereas when you actually give birth you're just so excited to get your baby it doesn't matter what sex it is.

decisions decisions!

Hey ladies. Hope everyone is ok.
Been lurking for the last few weeks as nothing new to report.
Wanted to say Hi to Bunda.
Im in exactly the same position as you! I have 3 beautiful boys and I'm expecting number 4.
Ive decided I'm going to find out the sex this time as like you I know I will be a bit disappointed if it's another boy.
Having time to accept it, name him and buy him some bits means his birthday will be a totally happy occasion as it was with all his brothers.

Hi everyone.
Sadly my earlier fears posted in this thread have come to fruition.
Had scan today for reassurance ( was 11weeks today) and unfortunately no heartbeat. They have classed it as MMC as I had no traditional physical symptoms (bleeding/cramps etc). In my mind just felt something was not right. Jellybean measured just under 10weeks.

It's been great being on this thread but I will say bye bye and wish you all good luck in your journey xx

I'm so sorry crazy, such sad news.

Sorry to hear that cranberry

So so sorry to hear that cranberry. Please take care of yourself xxx

oh crazycranbery, i'm so very very sorry :(

I'm so sorry for your loss crazy

So sorry to hear that crazy I hope you are doing ok

I've been moved forward a day at my scan today. Just one baby bart and new due date of 7th April. Which is what I thought it would be based on ovulation rather than lmp.

Crazy - so sad to hear your news. My baby died at 8+6 and had my op to remove it today. Please please pm if you nees someone to talk to. I am always here!

Fx for everyone else having sticky sticky beans!

sorry to hear that cranberry. MMC are horrible, so shocking. Sending you love XX

Hey cookie hope you're OK after op; feel better soon XX

Thanks ladies x

Hope your Op went well cookie. I have mine booked in for 7am Thursday. Scared but felt it was a better option than letting nature take its course. Thanks for the offer - I might take you up on pm. Be good to chat with someone in same boat (even if its a sad boat)

Had to tell my 10yr old DS today and he was gutted about not having a bro or sis. One of the hardest things about all this. Bless him - he did ask if we would try to get pregnant again which was sweet!

Hope everyone else has positive scan results. I will probably come back to this thread over the coming months to see how you're all getting along.

Take it easy everyone
X

Would be lovely to see how you're doing crazycranberry!

Glad your op was ok cookie, thanks for letting us know. I had it in my head that it was tomorrow, so glad you had a bit less time to wait! Will be thinking of you on Thursday crazy xx

so sorry to hear this crazycranberry.

my scan was today too. thankfully all is well.

so sorry to hear your news cranberry. Hope you do pop back to say hello now and again, it would be nice to hear how you're getting on.

Lovely to hear that others have had successful scans though.

Light it was meant to be tomorrow but they called me this morning and moved it to this afternoon!

cranberry sorry to hear that. Must of been hard telling your ds.

Can someone do a clickable link to stats thread as I'm on my phone and can't find it.

I've been feeling very sick past few days it's awful. Went grocery shopping today and as I walked around I got sicker and sicker. Not good.

Got my flu jab booked for 19th Oct, dreading it.
