Yes butterfly! Lol. Good math skills
Girls so delighted I came in here today. It is so lovely to hear all the happy mamas coming back from their scans. Congratulations to you all.
Was it a private place you went to at 14 weeks?
Yes it was, I had to beg DH... and we got a coupon online before going in! :)
Only $50! So not too bad!
When the day came it was crazy...he woke me up like an excited kid at Christmas and said "Wake up, come on hon, let's go find out the gender of our baby!!!" And I just had a pit in my stomach, and was anxious and said "uhh alright.." hahahaha
He totally thought it was going to be a boy... yet he was that excited!?
Oh was he surprised and happy!
I will tell you this...I've told my closest GD friends so you don't have regrets like me.. GET A DVD... it's SO worth it! Esp if you are indeed carrying your DD! The pics I have of her when I found out what she was.. are my favorite of her..So cute and tiny and the whole body on the U/S screen!
I would have loved a DVD but we couldn't afford it, and money had to go to the gender party instead.
So happy to hear all of this good news!!! It's making me even crazier for my scan though!!! Only 1 day and 23 hours to go!!! I think Lassie is right before me!
Hey! Had to share a picture of my Teddy Bear! One side of the face got a bit stretched but he has the cutest little nose!

well ladies things are looking up on this thread :)
rosie teddy is such a little cutie pie :)
much love :) xxx
Argh Rosie he's so gorgeous.
Might have to get a 3d scan done of my little teddy too :) xx
Rosie your little man is just beautiful and I adore his name too. Love that picture.
Thank you hbp and ladies, i still don't believe it!!! Def in shock about it, feels like a dream. Want to get another scan booked now for confirmation, lol x
Thanks!! I can't wait to give him eskimo kisses! I really love the name too, I will be sooo devastated if DH changes his mind! Doubt he will though as we are using his recently passed grandpas name for the middle and they fit so well together.
I am getting excited and making a list of everything he needs. It is short but has expensive things on it that I have always wanted or they didn't have around with my last.
You should! I love that we are using the same name, they were totally meant to be little boys! Can't let such a great name go to waste! Dh was very jealous I saw our Teddy in 3d and he didn't. I think we might go get a full 3d done. Mine was short and only a couple shots of the face but enough to make me fall head over heels for him!
Wowzers i love waking up to all this activity in this thread!
No my only symptom was being tired in the 3rd trimester. I have done the same thing with DD when i pick her up she cant sit on my belly anymore, the poor little baby gets squished! and sometimes when i bend over im reminded that there is something in there, i wouldn't be too worried about it, our little ones are pretty well protected in there with all the fluid around them :)
Yay congratulations :)
WooHoo You must be Tickled BLUE :) so happy for you, now you have to post pics of stuff you buy for your little guy!
Wishingforpink Congrats on your baby girl!!!
Yep Lassie is tomorrow, then its you, then its me :)
Rosie - aww such a cute pic of your little Teddy!
:) I had one done with ds3 for bonding really it did really help with my gd.
I love looking at his pics. So wouldn't be fair if I didn't have a 3d with my teddy ;)
I'm so stuck on a middle name for him
I was thinking Teddy Arthur what do you all think goes it go? xx
As for me i feel like i have my energy back fully now which is great, i have managed to have my hair done, eyebrows plucked and eyelashes tinted, i feel normal again, i was feeling really frumpy there for a while. My boobs have pretty much exploded so i have gone and bought all new underwear, ive gone from a B cup to a DD haha DP loves it but they are so sore, i have to massage them every night just to get some relief. I am really looking forward to feeling the baby move any day now hopefully and i am still waiting on my darn doppler to come in the post.
Tiff my brothers name is Arthur :) Everyone calls him Arty.
I was the very same Wishing4Pink. I had my first scan at 21 weeks and the sonographer got a great view and was sure it was a girl but I still made her check again. Then I talked to my consultant who said this lady would never say it was a girl unless she was 100% sure. Still waited another 3 weeks until my 24 week scan with my consultant on a different machine where he confirmed again it was a girl and double checked before I would believe it. Dh was cracking up with me lol.
Congrats everyone!! I must admit its very painful to hear, so wish I was in all your shoes:/
I'm so happy for you all but think I'll step back for a bit as I've been really positive about my 3rd boy but hearing others get what I wanted so badly brings all those negative thoughts back:( sorry to be a Debbie downer:/
Thanks girls. My boys watched Arthur Christmas the other day and said they wanted to call the new baby that so they kind of have there way :)
It's such a strange feeling naming a baby before its even here. Have never been set on a name before. Just meant to be I suppose :)
Coocoo, its okay I totally get what you are saying. I too feel more positive about my third boy but it does hurt to see others getting their dream genders even though I am VERY happy for them. I am jealous and don't understand how everyone can't get their dream genders but I also get that it's not all in my control and there is nothing I can do to change it anymore right now. It wasn't our time but it could be in the future.
Don't stay away too long though if you do step back! We love your presence here and value your insights!
I was out when it happened... when I got back home I used my little doppler thing and found the baby's heartbeat right away. It was probably not a big deal at all and I'm sure mom's with toddlers around that are pregnant have gotten far worse! But being that this is my first time being a pregnant lady with a toddler, it felt so wrong and not good. I guess in my head I was like, "OH MY GOD! IS MY PLACENTA GOING TO DETACH?!" Geez, so melodramatic.... I'm sure everything is totally fine. Just made me so paranoid because I had never felt that before... because I've never had a toddler trying to perch on top of my pregnant belly!
:HH: you Coocoo.. I also think you will have your future DD. Please don't stay away for long! :(
I feel the same too...it is hard to see others getting a girl, and it makes me feel guilty that I couldn't have been that happy about my baby. But, DH and I are both excited about #4 and that gives me hope. I just have to believe that everything happens for a reason.
On another note, I ordered the baby's stocking. If you saw my post a little bit ago, we are going to announce name and gender on x-mas eve by hanging a stocking by the boys' stocking. I ordered it a few days ago. Officially Brady Eli and I think we might call him by both names....but not sure yet. I loved Eli as the first name, but DS2's name is Kai. Kai and Eli sound a little funny to me so we settled on Brady Eli.
Interesting! I was MUCH less sick (only queasy, really... I mean, I functioned most of the time, didn't miss work, didn't throw up, queasy feelings were fairly easy to get under control) this pregnancy then I was with my son. My son I was intensely nauseated. Constantly. And I missed a lot of work with him.
Hope that's a good sign for me. :)
NC I just love that way to announce the name and gender! I have hope because of number 4 as well...just the dang annoyance of how do I want to obtain number 4...natural or adoption.
:HH: to you also my Beachy girl! I personally try not to be on as much and talk about things because I don't want anyone to feel bad.. It's hard. I used to post like 50 times a day on here, but I've taken a step back for awhile now. I'm just chit chatty today I guess because it's a pretty good day. DH actually took interest in my tummy today and was rubbing it, and saw it move for the first time, and he never saw that with our boys.
But you ladies aren't far from my mind..ever. :HH: :hugs:
PS love the name!! :)
Thanks Rosie! It will be funny to see how long it takes ppl to notice and see what is on the stocking. I really am in a good place with my GD. It was so much easier to find out and let it sink in before telling ppl. I was talking to my friend today and I was excited about it being a boy. I didn't tell her we know for sure, but I did tell her we are doing the stocking idea....she is family too. So, I hope she doesn't tell anyone. I just hope I don't get any annoying comments! At least it will be x-mas and I can blow them all off!
Nc...love your bubbas name and such a fab idea with the stocking xx
It's been a good day for scans, I see!
But I'm wanting to hug everyone that has had the opposite of the DG. But I'm certain you will not be able to imagine life without them once they are born.
