New thread

Hi everyone, had my scan today...was lovely to see it and everything looks fine, feel relieved for now. I'm amazed at how just a few years has improved the scanning equipment so much! My pictures are so clear compared to both my other children. Baby was asleep I think...it was really still and chilled out :-) Until way into the scan where I think all the poking woke it up! I'll try and post a pic in a minute.
On a downer though, today has been awful nausea wise, I'm 12+3 according to scan..(new due date of 23rd June) I was really hoping to feel better by now. But I don't :-( for some strange reason I have no real urge to tell people yet, a few close friends and family know and that's it so far. It's quite nice being a secret.
Congrats Orville! Lucky you getting an extra one :-)

Here it is! I love it's little legs, they look so baby like already!

I had a little nap this afternoon whilst the DC were intrigued by CBeebies. It's not uncommon for me to grab a short one most afternoons. I find that if I do to much round the house then a few hours later I feel really sick.

Congrats belle lovely pic!

Ooh Belle - we're due date buddies! I can't see your pic as I'm on the app, but glad you had a good scan.

Congratulations to all those who have had lovely scans!

bingo I've gained 9lbs so glad it's not just me! I feel guilty to be envious of those with much more moderate weight gains. I was very very healthy before I fell pregnant as was working hard on losing weight but now I'm struggling because of nausea and tiredness and it's getting me down!

Keep thinking I feel better and then heaving!

Hope all feeling ok today!

I'm back!

What a long day, but all's well, Trisomy risks are all 1/10,000 so all great there. Baby was VERY active, legs kicking about and arms waving. We had a dvd done too, it's only about 1 min long but shows the baby waving in it.

Oh it's a baby.........

GIRL!

Yaaaay congratulations tranquility

tranquility massive massive congrats! And a baby girl woohoo! Hope you can relax now!

sun I have until 24th May to find out!!

Congratulations on the scans!

Congrats on a girl, Tranquility! It looked like the cord was in the same area as the nub on your scan pic which may have made it look boyish (just seen the boy guesses).

I find out tomorrow! Though I'll be shocked if it's not a boy this time, my nub shot is definitely boy. If it's a girl, the thory's rubbish!

Theory!

The earliest appointment, 9.30! But I won't be able to update till later in the day as I'm out for much of the day and don't use the Internet on my phone!

Do you have a preference, sunbathing? We don't have any preference, we just want a sibling for DD.

I have no idea how people don't find out!

We've just found the baby's hb on the Doppler.

Evening all!

Really craving spicy stuff and occasionally choklit now - I keep putting piri piri seasoning and chilli flakes on everything!

weight wise, I have put on a couple of pounds - i really didn't need them, i have plenty! However i'm doing much better than i did with DS, i put on a good five stone when I had him, and I reeeeeealllly don't want to do that again!

good luck ladies for the scans coming up! I'm not likely to get on before monday night so i'm saying it now :) Got a gender scan booked for Thursday coming up, i'll be 17w exactly. Nervous about it because I haven't felt baby yet but everything will be ok, it will it will it will

congrats on your good scan orville, glad you're going to knock about with us still :)

glad you had a good scan belle though i'm sorry you're still suffering with nausea :( hope you feel better soon! lovely pic too :)

wooohoo tranquility!! so pleased your results were good and congrats on your little girl!!

Fab news tranquility! Baby girl how lovely!!

Good luck tomorrow cup!

Thanks. Excited about seeing baby again!

Aww thanks girls, we're thrilled. X

Congrats on your scans too Orville and belle, good news all round today!

Good luck for tomorrow cuphat, how exciting!

bingo in 3 months of ttc DD1, by my booking appointment I'd put on a stone and a half! kyz I gained 4 stone+ in the end too. Trying to be more sensible this time. Thankfully my appetite has been wider than plain white carbs and I can actually stomach fruit/veg this time round.

congrats on the girl tranquility

Finally getting round to posting my 12 week scan pix. What gender do you think, ladies? We will find out on 22/12 so not long to wait. Glad everyone is having good news & scans.

I'm sure most of my minimal weight gain has been on my tits, they are mahoosive & still sore. DP caught a feel of them today and couldn't believe the density of them!

For those with sciatic pain, Versatis 5% lidocaine patches really help to desensitise the nerves.

Gah! Now had too many failed attempts to load my scan pic from mobile. I give up! It's not the clearest anyway - baby was a real fidget (like me!). They've moved my dates on by 2 days based on measuring slightly smaller than my dates so new EDD is 27.6
