September 2018: #3! Early scans and booking in... it's all getting very real!

[Flybynight1]

For those of us with September 2018 due dates

Haha CuppaSarah well they did ask if I could manage to do half if not it'd all have to go.

I can stop midway but I realised its very hard to judge what half is

Glad I’m not the only one with a bump - I feel huge! Excuse my random pj bottoms and work top outfit!

V. excited about all these scans!

You look great @blondie1001 - I don't think I've got any sort of bump.

Wow. Bumptastic! It's my first and I'm 9+6 and still fitting into my jeans today, but they are starting to feel a bit tight!

I have a possible job interview in a month or so. Looking at those pics it seems unlikely I'll be able to keep it a secret by then!

Aw thanks @kirinm - I can grab most of it so it's mainly Christmas overindulgence!

@MrsC I'm still in my jeans but I officially had to loosen my belt a notch at the weekend!

Today is the best day! Say hello to baby Fridge!! 11+6. Could not be more thrilled!!

Congrats fridge! What a fantastic scan pic :)

Shut omg what a beautiful scan pic 😍😍

Love all the bumps
Fia my bump is like yours!

Thanks ☺️ I've not allowed myself to get too excited up until now, but it's all brimming over now!

Yay congrats @Fridge! Wow - what an amazing pic! xx

Eeeek! Congratulations Fridge that is amazing picture! Baby Fridge looks so active!

Oh wow Fridge that's an amazing picture!! Well worth the full bladder!! Congratulations

The other bridesmaid for sils wedding just announced her pregnancy. She is due within days of me! Sil will be having all the prosseco herself on the day!

That's hilarious @CuppaSarah When is the wedding? Will you both be sporting huge bumps by then?

No it's three weeks on Saturday. It's her first so she probably will be ok with her dress, but apparently she's ordered a size up and I can alter it on the day so it fits nicely. Seems being a bridesmaid makes people broody.

Oh cool - I had visions of a lovely summer wedding with both of you about to pop

Ahhhh @ShutTheFridgeUp look at those long legs!! What a beautiful scan picture!

Just out of interest, do everyone's hospitals charge for scan photos? Ours is £10 for 2 pictures for £18 for 4!!! Which I think is just bloody ridiculous!

Hurrah! Finally got my scan. Unfortunately it was wiggling so much that they couldn’t get a nuchal measurement and I have to go back for bloods at 16 weeks. As soon as the scan wand went near it, it’d start kicking its legs and waving its arms. Going to be fun in later pregnancy...

Congratulations @dingdongdigeridoo and @fridge!!!

*@ShutTheFridgeUp even! Gorgeous scans!

Getting excited now. 8 days away for mine and I'm terrified. 12 weeks tomorrow!

Yay! Congratulations @dingdongdigeridoo

Loving seeing these scan pics with so many more to come!

Oh I'm loving these scan photos!! Congratulations ladies!

To answer the pp our hospital charges but EPU doesn't so all my scans til now I've been given pictures for free

Just had a look at the website of hosp and says £3 each or £5 for 2

It's £5 for one, £10 for two at ours but I've only every bought a ticket for one and they always give you a whole string of them. I got six for £5 this time.

ShutTheFridgeUp That is an amazing quality photo. Look at those long legs

So cute that you've got a little wriggler DingDong

Makes me so excited for mine. 2 weeks today seems so far away!

My hospital charge £5 for a photo and they only let you purchase one. I hope they make it a good one!

Is anyone having a 16w gender scan? We are undecided and keep changing our minds. I don't know if we should just not be impatient and wait until 20w scan and save the money. Its only £60 though and you get scannef for half an hour plus you get to see it in 3/4d.
