Due in December/January/February 2013/14

Tree - I would probably do it. I am hoping I can get the Maternity21 blood test in about a month...so yeah, I'm all for finding out asap! :)

Meeks - Totally understand the nerves. I am DREADING finding out. But, I am going to. Gotta prepare myself!

Msblakely - I admire your patience! Like I just said, I am dreading finding out, but I would absolutely be on pins and needles the whole pregnancy if I waited! Good for you, though!

oxox - Hope you're feeling better about things!

Ladybugs - Saw your post on the other thread. Congrats on beautiful boy #3. Check out the song I posted a link to in the Gender Disappointment thread. I hope it encourages you!! Hugs!!!!

AFM - Just today I was thinking, hmmm....not feeling very pg today. Haven't felt sick in a few days, not horribly tired. Then, the nausea hit me. Sitting here munching on Tostitos black bean & garlic chips. YUM! But, I REALLY need to step away from the bag of chips...

Oh honey I'm sorry for the loss of that dream. I'm glad ds3 is looking healthy and cute, and hope finding out early allows you to grieve, accept then eventually get excited and embrace this turn of events.

Big hugs.

Ladybugs I'm so sorry!!! I hope in time you will adjust and get excited about the new and wonderful addition to your family!

I feel incredibly insensitive now writing this....

But we bit the bullet and went for the private gender scan.... And it's a... GIRL!!! I actually really felt it was but even so am in total shock!! She promised baby won't grow a willy and said she was 100%.

Tree that's amazing! Well done. It's nice to finally have someone that got what they swayed for, recently our group has had some bad luck so I am encouraged by this!

On the flipside, I am terrified I have a boy in here, because I seem to be craving lots of boy foods, like oranges, fruit of all kinds really, veggies, cheese and yoghurt. I have had lots of odd cravings this time too and with the boys I had none. Maybe it's just so long on LE forcing me to eat more nutrients?? Fx fx fx

Meeks I've massively craved healthy food recently!! I think it's the LE diet. And maybe a girl thing... I got so fat eating junk with the boys and didn't crave healthy food at all!

Tree, congrats on hearing pink.

Thank you!! And all the things you just said I so hope I get to share with my little girl... So surreal. Touching wood and praying she is a healthy little thing and the pregnancy goes well! I can't help but worry about something..!

I went to Babybond, they are all over the country (uk) and I'm 17 weeks but they do the gender scans from 16 weeks.

Tree huge congratulations! That's lovely news,
Enjoy every min of your pregnancy.. I loved eating fruits with my DD mainly strawberries, raspberries and blackberries, apples and bananas.
This time round Ive rarely picked up an piece of fruit! I wish I could but don't feel like eating them at all!

And for those who didn't hear their desired gender, congratulations on the latest edition, they'll be a perfect edition to your families I'm sure!
