Sunflower...soooo cute! ! I was supposed to have my 12 week appointment yesterday but they had to postpone it til sept 4th..soooo bummed. At least I can see what my lil blob would look like ♡
Okay, so it's official... we're having a boy!!! When I asked her how sure she was, she said money back guarantee, 100%, so I think we're safe :-) She also did a full anatomy scan while she was at it and everything is in it's rightful place and looking good! Below are our two obvious boy part pics, lol

Thanks everyone :-) Hubby and I are just feeling so fortunate right now! And now I can finally start getting down to business with this nursery stuff too, lol!
Yay crazy cat!! That is certainly not a shy guy either ;)
Wonderful news crazycat. Congratulations :D
Congrats Crazycat!! How exciting! Boys really are great!!!
How far along are you? I have my nt scan next Thursday and I'm really anxious to see if there will be any gender clues. I will be 13 weeks 5 days at the scan! If not I have to wait until the 17th..

We were only 14w1d, but the woman who did our scan has been doing early gender detection for 21 years and is a pro at it, lol. I think you'd have a good chance at guessing based on nub theory at 13w5d if you can get a good shot and have a nice tech :-) I think I've heard that it's easier to confirm a boy early though, and harder to confirm a girl. Of course even if you don't, the 17th will be here before you know it!!
I need to go to your lady then with ds2 the lady who did mine was so rude and wouldn't even get in a spot so I could have fun and try to guess. I hope I get a good tech this time! 😊

Well, this woman was one where we went to her and paid out of pocket for the gender scan. The tech at our OB where they do the NT testing and all that wasn't too nice, although in the end, she softened up. Ar first when I asked her if she could get a nub shot she said she wouldn't because she doesn't like to guess unless she's 100%. I wasn't asking her ti guess! I just wanted her to take a picture so I could guess!! IN the end, she did give us some nub shots and even commented that she would be shocked if it wasn't a boy, so it worked out, but still. I was annoyed when her first reaction is to tell a woman that she won't do a nub shot. Why would that hurt her? She doesn't have to make any guesses, but it's not her baby. The mother should be able to have a nub shot if she wants! Anyhoo, I hope your tech is cool and will get you a good nub shot so we all can have fun guessing on here :-)
Hello everyone, we got our BFP a few days ago on holiday in Egypt. Really lovely way to end our first wedding anniversary holiday. We are both hoping for a little girl but would be happy with either deep down. We started with the LE diet and various other swaying tactics but DH has a low sperm count so we stopped swaying as hard and 6 months later, here we are.
Only 5 weeks currently and due in April :)

Hi everyone! I'm back from holidays and trying to catch up!
I hope you are all well.
Congrats on the new BFP!
We had our scan today at 13 weeks5days
Baby was so cute, really wriggly and most importantly all is how it should be at this stage.
The tech said she would be able to tell the gender but I chickened out! So will stay team green. Yet I have been on the net like a crazy person looking at nub shots and try to guess! Here's my babaAttachment 20657
Congrats and welcome IFC_Sarah!!

Lavie that skull def looks girly to me!!
Crazycat, idk if you talked about it before but can you make a little list of what's different between this pregnancy and your dd so far? I'm starting to think I must be having a girl bc at this point, I feel the same as I did with her which is a lot of nothing lol I def had less morning sickness aka none, but that's about it! Any different cravings or aversions, emotionalness, bb soreness, headaches, ms etc? I know it "doesn't mean anything" but it's fun to compare right(:
& welcome Sarah!! Congratulations on your bfp! I hope you get
Your girl, they're tons of fun!! I had wanted a boy first and have zero regrets!!(:
Thank you for the welcomes! Really looking forward to sharing the pregnancy journey with you all :)
Lovely scan pic Lavie! x

Hey Sarah :wave: how you feeling?? I'm 8 weeks and counting down days till 12. Some days im great others im really nauseous and dry heaving xx

I'm exactly the same as that, go through phases of being tired then feeling fine too xx

Luckyduck, yes, I think they are different in some of the stereotypical ways, which is funny. Of course they are similar as well. With both, my MS started right at 6 weeks, but with DD it was worse and I lost over 10lbs and couldn't keep much down. With this one, I feel like I've managed it better, but also have a better medicine too, so I'm not sure if it really would have been as bad or not. My boobs are about the same soreness, and the fatigue and having to pee is the same, but I think those are just general pregnancy symptoms. I have had a lot more headaches with this one, which I don't remember getting much with DD. The main difference I've noticed is in food cravings. From day 1 with this one, I've been craving protein (could also be because I was on the HE diet leading up to this and eating tons of protein on that). Carbs too, but only when with protein. I have been loving eggs and meat and peanut butter and the only thing I can drink is milk, and TONS of it! I can't drink anything sweet like juice or soda, and am not fond of sweets in general, except straight chocolate, but I have always been a chocoholic :-) Oh, and I am eating like a 300lb man! I am hungry all the time and can take down some serious food! With DD, once I could start eating, all I wanted was ice cream and candy, lol. I loved sweets with her! But even though I wanted sweets, I still didn't eat a ton of food. Oh, and I loved OJ and fruits in general too. So yeah, the main differences I've found has been less MS (but that could be attributed to the better drugs) and then the difference in cravings and appetite, but to me, that is a big difference!
I found that my boy pregnancies were different from my girl one in strange ways. With my boys I had horrible insomnia and my back broke out like crazy. I hated it. Lol. With my girl I didn't have either of those symptoms, but I did gain heartburn and moodiness.
Overall, my nausea, cravings, and tiredness were the same for all three (this one has been a bit worse for both nausea and tiredness, but cravings are the same).
I will be very curious to find out what this one is. I do not have insomnia or back acne. I do have heartburn and moodiness. But I kinda think maybe its a trickster. Lol. I haven't had headaches with any of the pregnancies. All three of my first pregnancies I had sore boobs pretty early on and lasting til 10+ weeks. This time they weren't sore much, but itchy and my nipples were sensitive. I tease DH that if there was a third gender, I'd guess that this time ;)
I enjoy symptom guessing. I know it's not accurate and there are those who have completely opposite symptoms and have the same gender and those who have extremely similar pregnancies and opposite genders. But it's fun anyhow!
I'm curious too and trying hard not to get my hoped up based on symptoms
With my son, I had 0 symptoms except nipples turning dark. This pregnancy, I've been sick starting at 7 weeks. Mild nausea throughout and threw up a few times. I've also had major food aversions.
I've also got sore boobs, itchy nipples and super dry hair+ skin
I'm hoping and praying thst opposite symptoms mean something because both sides of our families have preety mich told us it's a boy and even picked out names
I was completely exhausted the first trimester but I've noticed it getting better within last week.
My pregnancies have been so different that I can't see connection to symptoms or cravings for me....
DS1 no ms, no food aversions, bit. tired, moody, ate alot of sour apples, really hungry!
DS2 moody, beyond exhausted, metallic taste, major food aversions, bad nausea from 4-12 weeks.
This pregnancy hungry and sick nausea started later fully kicked in at 7 weeks, no major food aversions, sour taste in mouth, really sore boobs and quite calm and happy not moody, bad acne.
So I give up!! I agree its fun to guess Xxx

welcome lfc_sarah and congrats!!
Lavie - great pic, I am not a guesser so can't really guess based on the pic but it looks great
Regarding symptoms, I had headaches last time, I have headaches this time, was very spotty last time, I am definitely spotty this time (maybe less so but not sure), feel a lot more sick this time, get dreadful dizzy spells which I did not get last time. Boobs have gone up a cup size like last time. Cravings have been slightly different - last time I just wanted sugar - ice-cream, chocolate, cakes, I even put sugar on my porridge and I never do that. This time I craved more savoury stuff - yorkshire puddings, chips, cheese (cruelly enough, brie and camembert....). However in the last few days i have craved sugar again and made my husband buy me some haribo yesterday - I NEVER eat that!! Oh and the food aversions.....last time could not stand eggs. This time I can't stand smoked things and have been off meat a lot.
I have my NHS dating/nuchal scan tomorrow, I will only be 11w2/11w3 so theres no way we will be able to guess that early but as soon as I can post a pic, I will do. Wish it wasn't so early but I am away from 6th-16th. Really wanted it to be when I got back but the hospital wanted me to have it beforehand but they said if they can't do the nuchal scan due to being too early I will have to go back - praying I have to go back!!!!!
I know its mad but I might pay for another scan when I get back as I am just nervous that this scan is early still in the first trimester.
Steph, I feel the same. My scan last week had me at only 10weeks+3 based on my dates but they both measured at 11+2 so they did the NT scan. Makes me a bit nervous that it was so early?? Although once I get referred to the Fetal Medicine Unit (which I have to be cause of twins) I'm sure they'll rescan me - here's hoping anyway. 😕
I love haribo Steph!!! My DH is English.....feeling so sick today im only 8 weeks and over the all day nausea!! You said it would kick me up the arse it has!
Steph , they won't scan you before 12 weeks here that's so annoying!!! I would go and see but maybe look to book another scan...
I'm paying for my nt scan as I want a nice sonographer and had a really good experience at this scan place with the last two. FX you get another scan too mum,when will you find out genders? Xxx

I think I felt the worst around 8/9 weeks. Still feeling rotten now, but either I'm getting used to it or it's starting to peter out a bit.
As I'm away from 6-16th I've decided to tell my colleagues the day I return to work as I will be well noticeable by then. I'm going to walk in and say I got too involved with the holiday buffet lol
