New thread

Thanks for the new thread - now to catch up on it!

melon sounds like wind to me hun, I've had it the last few days, it can be so painful :( Ive been drinking peppermint tea to help.

I'm sure mines a boy by the nub too.

I'm sure mine will be a boy or a girl

Haha! Very astute b&wcat. Whenever petople say what do you think it is? Or what would you rather? I say "as long as it's a boy or a girl and not a giraffe I don't care."

Haha I love those responses! Boy or girl please
I'm team yellow and DH is not a man for turning even though I've started to wonder...no I'm staying yellow...but skull theory I think boy

With skull theory I'm leaning more towards boy. Been getting more stretching-type pains on my right side. Does this mean baby is on that side or I'm just stretching unevenly? Food-craving-wise, early on I was all about marmite and salty things (boy) but now it's evened out a bit and I've been chomping on fruit and chocolate and other sweet things.

Lovely photo mrsc. Very clear arms and legs!

Great news on the scans, fab pics! Here's mine at 12+5 (over 2 weeks ago now!), no idea on any of the gender guessing theories but I'm convinced boy, any guesses?

edgar they would've rung by now if you were high risk for sure, my scan and bloods were the Thursday and they said if they were high risk I would get a phone call the following Monday or Tuesday, it wouldn't take over a week. I got my low risk letter really quickly, exactly a week later, but friends in the same health board had to wait weeks! My NT was 1.9mm at 12+5 so very similar to yours.

Great news on scans today ladies! brooke, sleepy and Mrschatty all v real now, can't wait to tell my mum later on Skype and sister in law in person as she happens to be up this weekend! (family 100 or 200miles away!)

Showing off my bump in my new MamasandPapas maternity jeans. They are so comfy I don't want to take them off ever

Hmm...interesting that MN turned my photo sideways

I would love to post a bump pic as yours are all so fab, but I'm larger than all you lovely ladies so I shall refrain lol

looking I say girl for you the skull is more rounded at front!!! I'm no expert!

Lovely scan news everybody and love the bump pics, you're all looking good!

I think I felt one tiny flutter last night before going to bed. It's quite early for that as only 16w on Monday but it's possible apparently. So exciting!

Loving all of the scan news!
Bump pics look great, nothing much to show here but just seem to be looking fatter!!
Can't wait to start feeling movement, crumble!

Also loving the scan news and bump pics! Looking forward to having one of those myself

MissMartin glad to hear the taking of blood went well, you'll be so relaxed for future ones now!

Hi all! Great to see bump pics. I was convinced mine was just fat as I'm only 14 weeks tomorrow, but if other people have bumps then it must be baby!
Hi to others due 9th Jan, it's my new Edd from my scan. Will update stats when I am on computer rather than phone!

Loving the bump shots!! This was last sat at 13 weeks and sure I'm bigger this week!! Already on maternity uniform at work and my senior said today "oh you are getting a bit of a tummy"

Just a quick comparison post. Photo with jeans taken this morning. Photo in pyjama trousers taken this evening. My bump definitely grows over the course of the day and it's rock solid. Mind you I've had stretching pains all day long so I think there is some element of general growth in there too.

Ladies I updated the stats sheet so all the dates are formatted and so we can sort on the date column as people's dates change . At the moment they're stored in U.S. Format (month, day, year) but I will try to change that next time I'm on my laptop.

argh these pesky boobs. Finally decided to get new bras 2 weeks ago, and they're already too small

I'm with you Brooke I look huge but that's because I had a huge tummy anyway beforehand (size 20) so fail to see the point in posting as you can't tell what's baby bump and extended spare tyre....

Great photos! My tummy is a bit pointy @ 14.2 today.

Is any one else planning one last holiday as a couple? (for the other first timers). Thinking of Italy in August... Just checking latest times to fly etc!

Loving the bump pictures my mums just been talking to my belly.. i said mum ot can't hear yet but it was cute
my scan isn't till the 22ndJuly.. so long away I'll be 13w3d..

Ooh lovely scan pictures and bump photos! Will try to take a pic of mine tomorrow - unless you know I just look a bit podgy (I was a size 16 before I got pregnant, size 14 on a good day!) but there is definitely a bit of bumpage going on I think.

lara We were planning on a week somewhere in late October but I'll be on the cusp of when they don't let you fly, so don't know how realistic that will be! But what with doing up the house and saving for bambino we really can't do more than a couple of days at the seaside in August.
