Nuchal even!
:) great to hear from someone who has been. If I were to go it would be at 13 weeks but I suppose there is still room for error. I think I would get GD really badly if I were told girl only to be confirmed its another boy at a later date. I suppose I was thinking that it is better to know its DS4 as early as possible so I can get on with my pregnancy (im so convinced its a boy i hadnt allowed myself to think of an alternitive) but being told its a DD with a margin for error..... I think I need to think about this more :). Maybe I will hold out for 16 weeks when there is more accuracy.Quote:

It's hard to argue with his statistical accuracy and my baby was firmly implanted on the right side of my uterus at 5 weeks gestation. In my head, baby on the right=boy and baby on the left=girl. Of course, there's a tiny shred of hope left in my heart. I keep thinking that 97.7% is not 100%, maybe I'll be one of the 2.3% flukes. I'm preparing myself to come to grips with the fact that I'll never have a girl. I'd rather be prepared than completely crushed at my 20 week scan.
I should note that this is most certainly our last baby and my last chance at a daughter.
I think at 13 weeks he has something like 98% of something. I know now that at 11 weeks the nub still has a chance to rise. When he told me girl I skipped into the car park jumping up and down - was so happy. Worse thing was at 20 weeks they said couldn't tell and was inclined to agree girl. I must admit I did have post natal after he was born but bonded straight away and loved him unconditionally. I went back with ds3 but made sure it was later and he was right. I don't want to go this time as I am scared of knowing! This is my final baby and I am just so scared which must sound rediculous!!!! X

For me at moment ignorance is bliss!!!! Friends we stayed with last week told me I was having another boy!

I agree with Mrs P, when all you've ever seen is willy's it's hard to believe it could go either way. There is a chance of corse for all of us but we are all scared to even hope. I got my hopes up that DS3 might be a girl and it left me with DG that I don't want to experience ever again. DS3 of corse is the light of my life but it ruined my pregnancy with him.Quote:

Lol!!! That's so true!!!
I can't remember how far in advance I booked it as ds3 is 2 and half now but I don't think there's a long wait. He does have really good clear equipment and you get a DVD too. I could tell in our scan ds3 was a boy because I had been obsessing over nubs so long lol!!! Do you live far from there? It's just off the motorway so easy to get to.

Ok question ladies - has anyone had (either this preg or previous) tooth sensitivity????
It recently (over the last couple days)has become a bit painful to chew in 2 spots in my mouth, I am wondering if I have suddenly sprung 2 cavities after not having a single problem in over 10 years or if it is a preg symptom? I know they say sometimes your gums can bleed more but I don't think I've heard of tooth sensitivity? I thankfully see the dentist for my regular check up on the 30th so I'm hoping it goes away/doesn't get worse! It's not terrible, or super painful, just more of an annoyance when I'm trying to eat lol I hope someone can relate!!!!
Hi yes I have had tooth sensitivity when pregnant . In England we get free dentistry when pregnant because your teeth can be effected by pregnancy. I had an absess with ds3 which was horrendous with no pain relief. I normally find after few days it eases off. It's got worse with each pregnancy. I just brush my teeth a lot throughout day when I can when they hurt. Hope they ease off for you x
No extra sensitivity just lots of bleeding. My teeth are quite sensitive anyway and I always use tooth paste for sensitive teeth because of this.Quote:

I have also decided to spend the £100 plus I would have been spending on the scan on extra presents and goodies for the boys on Chrismas day.
Of corse I will be getting a NHS scan around 12/13 weeks (6th December ish) so I'm sure I will nubsessing over that.
I will be booking a gender scan in the new year (I couldn't wait until 20 weeks!!) But I'm determined to get through Christmas with it still being a surprise.
Oh geez that does sound horrendous!! I am jealous you get free dentistry, we sure do not! And benefits aren't common around my area either :( Thank you!Quote:

I know we are taking our chances on a 14-15 week scan anyway but I don't want to be sad for the holidays either with all the family around! Especially with my MIL nagging about not getting our hopes up for a girl blah blah. I have thought maybe it's a bad decision here and there booking so early :(! I hope you get through it! Lol the anticipation is just so tough but at least christmas is so busy, it may help to take your mind off it a bit!
CVD... I'm sure you will get a girl Hun :)Quote:

Hello friends
I am pregnant for the first time. My due date is June 9th...I would love to be added to your roll call please...BTW...had my first scan at 6 weeks and saw our little bean...had an appointment today and the HR is 164...we were recently thinking boy based on the initial heartrate of 150 now we think maybe a girl.
Thanks a bunch
We will have a large family I suspect. I am also a SAHM. I'm lucky that my husband works in a well paid job so he can support his ever growing clan of testosterone. I am the first person in my family for generations to deviate from the three children max tradition.Quote:

I am not a SAHM yet but we are planning for me to stay home after this baby is born. I understand what you mean about being the first to deviate from you family size. We are the first to have 3 children and now we are having a fourth. I don't even want to tell my family just so I don't have to hear all of their comments. Hopefully yours is more supportive than mine. They thought we were crazy when we had the third.Quote:

Each family is different :) I hope you get pink 3boys, that'd be so nice for your little men!
Sorry to hear they aren't too supportive :( I hope they don't comment! It ls too bad when it's something your so excited for then others kinda rain on your parade! I hope it goes well when you tell them!Quote:

There is actually more of a chance (which is not much lol) me having 3 if this is a girl! If this is a boy there is no way I will try again! 2 feels complete to me :)Quote:
