Good luck Dannikins, I'm afraid I'll be asleep when you get home but I'll check in as soon as I get home tomorrow!

DM - I cringe whenever I see a baby dangling from a Bjorn type carrier! The first sling I bought was a ring sling and I couldn't get on with it at all! Perhaps I'd have more luck now I'm more experience but I don't really want to buy a load of different ones. I have a good woven wrap which I use when baby is older and for longer walks, a Connecta which is easy to get on and off for school runs and I'll replace my Moby which I sold with a new wrap for the newborn stage. I'm off to look at the quilt links!

Thanks for the birthday wishes Mocha!

I got really into baby wearing when I had ds3 too - I didn't do it much with my twins because it never occurred to me I could wear BOTH of them, and I always felt guilty wearing one and not the other. I had a SleepyWrap for when ds was a newborn, and both a Beco Butterfly and a Babyhawk when he was older.

As long as this baby sticks , I'll have to go to my BIL's wedding about 2 weeks after I've given birth. I'll be all swollen and lumpy still by then, so my plan is to get a simple black dress, then invest in one of those fancy print wraps I've seen in a bright colour, and wear my baby as part of my outfit . I figure it will keep the attention off my post-baby body.

ok im back.

the scan went well everything looks perfect.
bub was being very lazy, and slept through the whole thing.
which also meant we had trouble getting pics of some things, i had to lay on my side to get a proper view of the heart etc.

anyway, good news, no obvious boy bits, so we are still team green....

tech said boys are usually pretty visible by now, and since there are no "obvious" boy bits we still have a chance at pink.
but because we couldnt get a potty shot, im going to try and stay prepared for blue.

i would have totally loved to be able to see some obvious girl bits, but not seeing anything is the next best thing....

here is a 4D video...

Danni, this is fantastic news!!! Do you think your going to wait til delivery or be tempted for a 4d just to bond of course lol
D'oh again to me lol! Just seen you've posted your 4d, just gonna have a look!!

I reckon she is keeping the pink swayers luck going!! look at that nose! Far too pretty for a boy

Dannykins, lovely pic and video. I agree very cute!! Was that your 20wk scan? will you have anymore scans before baby due? As you said you didn't see anything obvious, so that will keep you truly team green. x

I'm so glad you got a good scan and your baby is doing well, Dannikins! It must be frustrating to still have no gender answers, though!

[zanacal]

So glad everything was well Dannikins, what a monkey not revealing itself though! Very pretty either way

Congrats, D! What a little cutie! Glad everything is looking great.

Cute scan picture D. It's a great sign that there were no visible boy bits
