Lovely clear scan Stone!

Overtiredbackagain · 06/01/2015 15:20

Lovely pic Stone, congratulations!

Number3cometome · 06/01/2015 15:23

StoneBaby woohoo!! lovely pic!!

Has anyone been brave enough to ask the sex of their baby at the 12 week scan?

I have another week and two days left yet, I feel so behind you ladies!!

My last scan dated me back a week, so will be interesting to see what they say this time.

11+3 (by scan date)

Littledragon13 · 06/01/2015 15:28

number3 the sonographer kept referring to baby as "he" at my scan!

LaLa5 · 06/01/2015 15:31

Congrats to all those with scans today! And wonderful news about twins!!!

My scan is on Friday, I'm counting the hours...

Bustherb · 06/01/2015 15:33

Updated on the testing. Saw a very very nice man who did the measurements, we are actually within the measurment for the testing so he's sorted it out with the screening centre and they have accepted it and will perform the testing GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin I asked if he could tell me the sex and he said 75% boy ShockShock WinkWinkWink I can't get over how nice he was, he showed me everything even the little bits which is why he thinks boy. Will have a look at the rest of the posts later Wink xxx

Number3cometome · 06/01/2015 15:36

Great news Bust, am really pleased for you! x

WantToGoingTo · 06/01/2015 15:46

Great news bust and excellent pic stone! Ooo bust a boy, or a v well endowed girl Wink

lala we are scan buddies, have mine on Friday at 9am eek!

Naturegirl82 · 06/01/2015 15:47

Congrats stone

Good news bust. It's annoying how the date can change depending on the accuracy of the sonographer. So glad the MW took it seriously for you and it is all sorted now.

Interesting little were you planning on finding out the sex? Either it is a boy or they just refer to all babies as male!

I can't believe how badly some of you are getting treated. You wouldn't think these appointments were routine from the incompetence that is being displayed!

TinyCaterpillar · 06/01/2015 15:50

Wow great news Bustherb!

Fantastic pic Stone and congrats on the twins Jen - how exciting! Grin

broodylicious · 06/01/2015 16:32

So thrilled for you bustSmile Thank goodness you've finally been treated properly! Xxx

Raines100 · 06/01/2015 16:40

Fab pic Stone

Jen- wow! What a lovely surprise!

Bust- well done for lighting a fire up their backsides and getting your NT screening sorted.

Number I have massive scan envy. I don't have a date to count down to yet. Still waiting for my letter in the post. Have never got this far without a scan before and am anxious to find out everything is ok.

Anyone else battling crazy heartburn/indigestion all day and night? Had it with DS2 in the 3rd trimester, but to have it this early seems ridiculous. I never have it normally.

11+0

Bustherb · 06/01/2015 17:16

Ah congrats Jen on twins! How exciting! Thanks everyone. I feel lots better now, although I'm half thinking that they will cock up something else somehow - I'm 14 weeks today, I take it that they accept the blood even if it takes a day to get there? Congrats to everyone on their scans today! Exciting times ahead!xxxxx

Thepurplegiraffe · 06/01/2015 17:38

Wow it's been a good afternoon on here. Congrats on scan results. So exciting Jen, is it starting to sink in yet?

Great news that they are trying to do something about their almighty cock up Bustherb, hope it works out and you get tested.

I can't believe some of you are still waiting for scan dates. That seems ridiculous to me, I would be tempted to kick off if I was you. We all know the NHS isn't beyond making mistakes.

BadIdeaBear · 06/01/2015 18:00

Delighted to hear your news bustherb - well worth making the complaint!

OMG jen I'd have fallen off the bed!! Happy researching and hope it sinks in soon!

My scan was cool - baby a little lethargic, but apparently better than most at hospital this afternoon. My friend got sent out for a walk and some chocolate to try and wake baby up. I was as relieved her scan was good as for myself, given that I'd had one only two weeks ago! Anyway here's my pic - baby clapped for us and then kicked a leg but mainly lay on tummy.

The knowing the sex thing was weird yesterday - when I got results from NIFTY they can tell you the sex with 98% accuracy and she asked if I'd asked to know. I had said no but now find it so strange that the receptionist on the phone actually had that info in front of her and I don't know it!

July 2015 - more and more beans are seen on scans
BadIdeaBear · 06/01/2015 18:01

Keep forgetting this bit

13+2 (down from 13+3 after today's dating!) whatever...

Pipbin · 06/01/2015 18:26

Congratulations to all those who had scans today. Especially to Jen and her twins.

Good news Bust.

I called today to see if my scan could be brought forward as I'm concerned that I'll be 13+3 by then. They said that they can do the nt test up to 14+1. Which is what the NHS info said but midwives and hospitals seem to say different.

Fleurchamp · 06/01/2015 18:27

Hi all!

So scan went well (and they were on time!!) nuchal fold measurement 1.6mm.

Baby wasn't playing ball and it took ages to get measurements and the picture quality was pretty poor compared to FMC.

Have been referred to consultant due to fibroids, not sure what it means for the pregnancy as a whole as what I have read about them doesn't seem to suggest they're a huge problem Confused

Fleurchamp · 06/01/2015 18:28

Oh and 12+1 EDD 20th July

Fleurchamp · 06/01/2015 18:34

Fab news bust so pleased!

Zampa · 06/01/2015 18:52

Congratulations all! I have twin envy!

Not quite as exciting, but I passed my driving theory test today. I have to learn to drive before lo arrives as
don't want to be stuck at home when DP goes back to work. Will hopefully pass before I get too big to fit behind a wheel.

Thepurplegiraffe · 06/01/2015 18:54

Great news re scan Fleur! That's funny re fibroids, I had one last pregnancy and this and no one seems to care. Where abouts is yours?

broodylicious · 06/01/2015 19:06

zampa, that is so exciting!! Congratulations to you!! Fx you'll smash the practical soon ThanksWine
