Charlee....I am thrilled for you that the sweet little in your belly is measuring right on and not struggling due to the car accident!! Your appt with your MD should fill you in on all the details....and get you at least another scan or two so we can all see how cute he is!!!!
2lovely...you are sweet to check in on me...the followup appt with my MD was so-so, maybe because most of the appts after 4 pm are like that! I believe that she is downplaying the concerns, but I am hoping that is because of her conversation with the specialist and that this little girl who loves to kick early in the mornings is in better shape than they first thought. I have been reading your responses in AS maternal dominance thread and have to tell you that your first cuddles with your DS3 are going to be amazing!!!!!!!!
Myrainbowgirl...I am on the ebay.com one...but if you don't have the option, then look for the 120 + patterns available from China and see the cute little one with blue and rainbow lines to the top with clouds...let me see if I can

add it in. It should show up, but if not, I will hunt down the image after work and make sure you see it!!!!!
AFM...ever since my brother's accident/finding out more on the baby's kidney and bladder, I have been dealing with the 2 am wakeup and stayup. I think that last night might have been the most solid sleep yet...but then I woke up to a dismal ending sex dream about hubby...wanted to go on an angry rampage the moment I got up!!! Lol, pregnancy brings out the best :)
As a side note, my brother is healing up...we will know more in the next 3-4 weeks, but as for now, things are looking good!!!
Gecon....I know you are laying low too, thinking of you and wishing you well!!!
Mathilde, when do you get your big, BIG scan? Fingers still crossed for you!
Ladybug - SO glad to hear things are moving smoothly for you AND your brother! I've been keeping you both in my thoughts and sending all positive energy your way :)
You are going to have the ultimate prize at the end of all this crazy stress.. a little Ladybug to hug and squeeze! I know it's been a rollercoaster but you will come out on top... I PROMISE. :)
How is everyone else coming along? GeCon where are you? Hiding out since your news?? I did that too :hide:
DH and I decided that DS3 looks exactly like DS1&2 LOL... they looked identical as newborns, which is funny since they look so different now! I will post a pic if you guys want to see (my fb friends already know!) ... but I can tell already that this one is going to look exactly the same! Modern technology is so cool :)
Is anyone going to do a 4D scan later in pregnancy for baby photos?? I'm contemplating it but I feel like I want at least a little surprise on his birthday... if I already know what he looks like then there's no surprise left!
Hi ladies,
I am here. I haven't been hiding. :) We have been away for a bit more than a week and since then things have just been busy. Didn't really have time to post.
Had our 20 week scan earlier and thankfully all is well with our little man. And although he was sitting cross-legged and according to the doctor didn't allow as good a view as 3 weeks ago, I am pretty confident that he is still a he.
Also reached our 20 week milestone today and our wee man is now the size of a cantaloupe. :)
Thank you so much for your support and kind words, girls. As stange as it sounds, I'm doing pretty well. For right now, I feel like the kid that's been told that they're not going to the park today. Horrible - had a cry about it, but telling myself it will happen soon. Not trying to play down what happened, but it could be worse. Much, much worse. DH is taking it a lot worse than I am - he's been drifting between irate/miserable and very quiet. Time will heal, but he's concerned something is very wrong somewhere, especially since it's the same week we lost the previous one.
Went to the doctors and brought up that I was worried there's something wrong with me why I m/c on the same week as the last one. They usually refer for checks on the 3rd m/c but as I mentioned I don't have a huge amount of time to be playing with, especially if we decide to try for a second LO and I think I may have had a couple of m/c in 2009, she said she'd refer me. Might not get an appointment until around October though, but hey, it's all in motion. I can't still try until October, right? Who knows, I could be going there for scans instead!
Thanks again all, and hoping you and your attempts/bumps are doing well xx
Pixi I think I see a girl nub on to one
Aw Bunnywabbit so sorry for your loss. You girls who have been dealt losses are soooooooo amazingly strong. Total admiration for you are.
Here is an extract of the gender part of the scan. Doctor might not have thought it was as clear as last time, but I think it is still obvious enough for us to buy a pram in boy colours, don't you agree, ladies? Excuse the quality and camera shake, had to compress the video and OH had to deal with narky, tired toddler whilst filming.
Video starts with our 1st witnessed hiccups of our little man. Sooo cute...

I was still a teeny-weeny bit hoping that there may be a chance of it being a girl, which has partly got to do with the fact that we are struggling to find a boys name we like, but had one ready for a girl... *sigh* Oh well, we have another 20 weeks to find one, I suppose...
Ladybugs: you are wonderful:)
Afm: struggling with names too.. Don't like any really.. Hugs m
Getting fat though;)
LOL you always make me laugh. " will try to avoid carrying him upstairs whilst on one leg though" haha that is so me. With ds2 I had such bad pelvic and sciatic pain I would stumble around the house clinging to benchtops to get around, then wonder why... of course I lifted ds1 in and out of the car, bed, high chair, carried him if he was whinging, etc. This time at 15 weeks its already so bad I can't stand on one leg and lift the other leg to put on my undies! I have to sit down on the bed like an 80 year old and groan while doing it. Its just so sexy. lolQuote:

Not that I would have ever been that silly *cough yesIdid cough*.
