Due in March/April/May 2016

[babypinkno3]

Hi all, sorry I've been MIA. Yesterday we went in for an u/s and we finally got to see the heartbeat. Again, I'm measuring small, should be 8w1d but measured at 7w5d, but they didn't adjust my due date, so official EDD is 4/11.

We are super anxious to find out if we are having a third boy or a little girl. DS1 says "sister" when we ask, and if we ask if it's a "baby brother" he says no. According to Ramzi, it's a girl because baby was very much on the left side, but then again so were my two older sons so I'm not placing any value on that. Either way, we are just so happy to have a confirmed pregnancy and can't wait for April!

I cant wait for all the updates on what you all are having!

Momamia you are having glucose tests already. Did you have problems with it in your other pregnancies. I hope you pass your glucose test.

Babypink you are only a few days behind. You could be having a smaller baby girl. Great news that all is going well.

Ash I have had good sections too that healed quickly and cleanly. I also wear a tummy wrap after and when all healed do abdominal massages to reduce scar adhesions which causes the biggest problems in repeat sections

Pearl, they tested me early because I'm overweight, I've had a baby over 9lbs, and my mom and sister both have Type 2 diabetes. Apparently those are risk factors which require early testing. I was just as surprised as you that they are testing me for it already. I'm irritated about my results because the lab lady drew my blood for the 1 hour test 15 mins too early. I think that's why my level came back slightly elevated. She said she felt bad that I had to wait for so long. Ummm.... It's called a 1 hour glucose test for a reason lady! I think she just wanted to go home early and I was the last patient of the day. I better pass the darn 3 hour test. I've never had gestational diabetes in any of my pregnancies. I have to go in next Friday, September 11th. I have to stay there for 4 hours. :/ Ewww.... I'm going to be so bored.

Babypink, so glad you got to hear the heartbeat! How exciting!!

Oh yes, I meant to tell you earlier how cute your kiddos look Pearl!

No news today.... Hope it comes in tomorrow & puts me out of my misery!

Noooooo! What time of day is it for you, Ash? I have just sat down to my 15 thousandth meal of the day (feels like it!) after hectic day and was so excited hoping to see your update!!! The suspense is too much!!!

[Ashforblue]

Haha Foxcub! No news today, booooo . I decided not to call & big them though until Monday... I have dogshow this weekend which should keep me busy & I'm actually feeling a bit more relaxed about it! Maybe I'm just too scared to know right now, LOL!! When I went in to my regular Dr. The other day, the nurse told me I was probably having my third girl!

Is it true that boys usually measure bigger then girls in early pregnancy?

Oh & congrats on hearing baby heartbeat Babypink!

Momamia, hope your next glucose test goes well!!

People love to tell you that you are having the same gender again. I was making breakfast in the canteen in work just chatting to a male colleague who is expecting his 2nd girl soon when another woman butted in to our conversation and said "you are expecting another girl, but you have one of them already" having gone through GD I was just in a rage for him at stupid comments people make.

ALL of my boys, DS1, DS2, and this sweet boy, have either measured 1-2 weeks ahead! When they said at my first scan at 5w6d the fetus was measuring 6w8d despite the gestational sac measuring right on target with my known ovulation date, I knew we were having our third boy. This is the only thing that has held true for me.

FX and tons of my blue dust (seriously, I need to get rid of it )

[Ashforblue]

Thanks XX! It makes me feel hopeful! Unless I have a big girl in there, LOL! My girls measured on dates exactly....

So I might break down & call them today instead of waiting til Monday, what can I say? I'm weak, haha

How's everyone feeling?

Just got bfp 12dpo. Edd 5-10 or 5-14 depending on conception or lmp dates. My 4 sons were all 10+ lbs. ( No GD) and my fundal height always measured on dates( no ultrasounds) so not sure why some people measure ahead. How many May mommies here?? Swayed girl and have a long wait ahead
