Roll-call!! Due June/July/August 2013

Welcome, Andrea and Violet! :wave: Congrats on your BFP's! Wishing you a H&H 9 months! :)

Glad to hear everyone else is doing pretty well! Still hoping all of our nausea/morning sickness/fatigue will go away soon! The second trimester is right around the corner for many of us - I can't believe how fast that's coming up!

Oh, and I hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving! We told our families the news yesterday, and everyone was SO shocked, LOL! It was a lot of fun. ;)

Well, that's all I can bear to write for right now...suffering from my daily splitting headache at the moment. :( This is getting so old. My head feels like it's splitting open every.single.night. from about 6pm/7pm until I go to bed. It's hard to fall asleep with such a painful headache too. I've never experienced this in pregnancy before. Thankfully, the nausea has eased up a tiny bit for me, but the headaches are just terrible. Praying this phase passes soon...

Oh that sounds very uncomfortable Sweetpea. Hope you start to improve soon.

Thanks for the lovely Welcoming everyone :) Hope everyone doing good and morning sickness is easing for some!!
Pearl, thanks lets hope at 12 weeks the scan goes well and we get a clear nub shut lol this waiting is drives me :hair: lol,
Think I might even have an 7 or 8 weeks scan (Monday im going to GP he usually refer me to have early scan) So will post pics for Ramzi guesses :suprise:
Jadis, im feeling exact same with you :worry: I have 2 boys who are still babys too 1.5 and 2.5, and sometimes i think how on earth am i going to coop when newborn arrives... sometimes find it hard now with my 2 boys. But I think its just hormones playing tricks with us!! That makes us stronger!! For your kids you are and you will be the best mum ever!!! :awe:
Dreamingpink, Glad ur scan went well!! How exciting!! But dont give up on your girl, she could be still in there.. there is nothing that indicates on the pics that is a boy. But 4 weeks is not long now!! Hope you here that magic word :hugs:

Im suffering from headaches every day and stuffy nose too, but nothing major, so so far so good.. No morning sickness just yet but it could change i know as im "only" 5 weeks. Had no morning sickness at all with my 2 DS, so not really know how bad it could be, but to be honest I wouldnt mind having it if its for my little princess lol just would be another different thing in pregnancy that would make me think it could be my babygirl in there :wink:

Congrats to all the new bfp's!! Sorry everyone is still feeling so sick - my symptoms have worn off again and just left with major fatigue again. I hope symptoms don't equal gender in my case! Have just been looking at march/April/may roll call thread - cant believe the amount of opposites. CVD is your scan the first one?? I have my nt scan for 11tg December! I have pics from my scan on 9 weeks 4 days but you can't tell on those can you??!

All measurements he took seem to be ok. Heartbeat was 160b/m. Hubby asked him about gender and he didn't even try to check, he said it's too early for that. I couldn't see a nub either. I only got two pics cause while he was printing another two, the printing paper roll finished and they got stuck in the machine :( and actually the last two seemed to be the best two shots. I tried to scan them but honestly don't know how to do it, hubby is not here now cause he had a football match after doctor's visit, but will ask him to scan them when he's back or tomorrow morning as it will be late. I'll post them for you to see but there's no visible nub :( and photos are not very clear either.

It was very exciting though seeing our little one move for the first time. He kicked and at one time even turned around and gave us his back, how rude of him lol :) I'm so happy I finally saw him again :) I sometimes didn't believe he was really inside me. The more I looked at the screen and at the photos, the more I think it's a boy. He doesn't seem to have that dainty skull if you know what I mean :) So I guess it's a boy for us. I'll probably know in 4weeks time....can't wait till it comes!

So gad baby was ok dreaming :) You got a cutie in there!

I have my NT scan on the 6th December. They won't tell me the gender but I can't wait to see my little bub again and check he's still in there lol :)

Awww dreaming, I got your message! My scan went well, I was blessed to have a sweet tech that gave me that 3d/4d look, so I did get a few pics and the whole thing on DVD. She was content holding her hands over and partially covering her face. The tech kept trying to get her but she was not letting us see it fully. I did take a pic with our camera and make it my avatar for now. She has moved up sadly so it was my last look at her but that's okay. I feel that the Lord really blessed me so I could have a few scans with my DD and last pregnancy!
I'm glad you got a scan but that's too bad the machine couldn't print out some of your pics. It's okay though, maybe it's better not to have to nubsess for now. Looking back with me, I'm actually glad that I had no clues and it made the surprise more special when it was time for the gender scan. It's good to accept that baby could be a boy, but at the same time.. it's all up in the air IMO. I'm excited for your next scan! Remind me when it is? I'm looking forward to it! :)

Wow, Butterfly, glad everything went well and that's a cute little pic of your little one. At least you managed to get your 3D/4D on dvd, now you can watch it over and over again :) I'll try to ask for one for my next scan. It's on 21st December, so close to Christmas. I'm counting the days. I'm trying hard to accept the thought that's it's probably a boy and I'm a bit angry at myself and hubby cause we can't decide on a name yet and I so much want to know the name before my next scan is due. I keep saying I want Carl and he wants any other name practically but that. Maybe we'll go for Eric or Daniel instead.

Thanks! That's my fave pic of her, hopefully I can get to the office supply store to scan them in full quality soon.
If it's an insurance paid for scan, they should do it! They did it with my DS at 19 weeks and I didn't even have to ask.
If your little bean is indeed a little boy then I will bet that your little man would LOVE a baby brother!!! Boys are amazing...especially in pairs. It's just something you have to experience yourself! ;)
I wouldn't be mad at yourself, didn't you have a great sway? Maybe he would be one of those babies that saw how fun your family was and just had to be a part of it!
Both of those names are cute though.... Eric Daniel sounds good together! :)

And I will be very excited to have one more reason for Christmas to get here quickly! ;)

Thanks hun, you are so sweet :bighug: Yeah my son was very happy yesterday when I told him I'm quite convinced it's a boy. I don't blame him wanting a boy, he doesn't have anymore siblings, I would also want a boy if I were him. He says girls are grumpy :) I don't know for how long he's gonna think about girls as grumpy, he's practically 12 now, so he will be wanting female company in a few years time :)

I think I am the first one! I am going in fairly early so just hoping baby is in a good position! If not I have an 18+3 scan Jan 3rd :)

Ladies, is second trimester 12 weeks or 13 weeks?
I thought it was 13 weeks and that's also what my ticker says but my pregnancy phone app tells me I'm already in the second trimester? HM! Well last night I decided not to take my diclectin before bed (my nausea comes at about 8pm and I have trouble sleeping so I have been taking just 1 at 7:30 each night) to see if my nausea will subside on it's own and I fell asleep pretty easily so I guess it's almost done! Still had a bit of an upset tummy but DH rubbed my back and I fell right asleep. Waking up was a lot easier too! It's a good morning - DS is in a fab mood, I feel good and the first snow fall came over night so it's nice to see a white yard! :)

The weird thing is, we are getting girls, it's just not people who were posting in the due date threads. Some of the custom sway plan people and a few others who don't post much. I think it's just an unfortunate coincidence. :(

Can I join you? Just got my BFP today!!!

Me too - I got mine yesterday at 8dpo quite a good line and a stronger line today at 9dpo - the darkest line ive ever got even darker tha my last 12dpo test so hoping that that is a good sign of a strong bean :-)

I'm really counting down to the 12 week mark, I'll be so upset if the 2nd trimester doesn't bring me out of my funk. I need a break from feeling sick, tired and anxious about baby. I'm 9 weeks and 4 days, how do I get myself oen of those fancy shmancy tickers?

Lovely to hear that your scan went so well. So exciting! Only 4 wks until your gender is confirmed! That's excellent... We will see eh? XX

Hi ladies,

I saw my midwife on Friday, she suggested when I get up at night (I'm up several times, goodness knows why my bladder can't be squashed yet) that I eat something small ie cracker/biscuit.. I have done this for the last 2 nights and have felt sooo much better in terms of MS in the morning. Really helps!

Can someone fill me in on the OWT and what they are/mean.. Scull theory and placental location etc??

Thanks ladies! XX

I'm glad your MS has been better!

I don't know anything about skull theory, but I do know the Ramzi theory says placenta on the right = boy and on the left = girl. So if you have a transvaginal u/s, if you hold up the picture to your tummy, you read it just as it is.

Congrats & welcome, Sunflower & Mum23boys! I'm so happy to have you join our group. :)

Can I ask some advice? With my older children I had VERY bad morning sickness! To a point of being completely unable to do anything. Sick all day and all night. Could not understand how anyone could function normally while pregnant etc. Well this time around, I'm slightly nauseas at times, I am more tired but that's it. I know it's early days, but with the other kids, the sickness kicked in from the very beginning.

This seems so completely different. (And a nice surprise) Could it be a different gender? Anyone have different pregnancies that were different genders? Also, should I be worried? Not strong morning sickness (well, I usually get 24/7 severe, sickness), should I be concerned? Pregnancy tests are all stronger, lines are now very dark, doctor thinks all is fine. I mentioned it to him. He said, could be a different gender? Unless you start bleeding, I don't think there are any concerns was his advice.

Mine have all gotten progressively worse and ms started really early on, this time its been a lot less than ds3, tiredness but not much sickness and if i do its in the evenings or night time but not much at all. Baby is fine though (or at least it was a couple of weeks ago) what bit i have got didn't start til nearly seven weeks either (again unusual for me)

How does everyone go off of the diet? I ate in between meals today. Felt so strange!

Also glad to see some moms on here with three boys. Mine are 5, 2 1/2 and 9 months. I think it's going to be great to have a playmate for ds 3 since ds 1 and ds 2 are super close! I would love a dd but mainly a healthy baby!

Sunflower my boys are 8,6 and 3 :-)

Mrs p - we will tel them after the scan - part of me would like to take them with us but i think the photos might have to do just incase its not good news. I think i will be 12 weeks sometime between new years eve ( our anniversary ) and feb 8th my birthday :-)

How lovely mum! I run a preschool and won't tell the boys as I'm sure they would tell all the teachers!!!!

What's your dd mum?

There are quite a few of us with three boys on this thread so lets hope we have better odds than the other thread since they are against us to begin with!

Mine are 7.5, 4 and 2

Oops just saw. Your dd is 8/5!!!

There are quite a few of us with three boys on this thread so lets hope we have better odds than the other thread since they are against us to begin with!

Mine are 7.5, 4 and 2

Congratulations to by the way sunflower, if i remember correctly you are another long timer on here, glad to see you got your bfp; have you posted your sway x

That's good to know mrs p!

Didn't post my sway yet Mrs P!
I started the diet in August right around the time I got my PPAF back. So this was my second cycle ttc. And I'm 41 so not much time to spare.

I took my last scan hard and cried a lot would hate to have done that in front of the kids. Maybe you could book an elective scan just for them after so they can 'meet' the baby. Some nhs places (the one by us particuarly) are funny about kids going in for scans to especially as you'd be going on mass. Lets hope they don't twig from liams t-shirt in the mean time LOL

that what i put on the thread hun - i plan to send him up to wake james up tomorrow morning with it on as im leaving the house with the other 2 - i dont want them to see it as they will read it and ask questions so i plan to put them in the car first then quickly put liams shirt on and head off with them then see when i get back if dh has even noticed !!! I will text him while at swimming - saying please can you change liams t shirt so the boys dont see it - that will make him see it !!! ha ha
