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

Good luck Maple!
That's good news P4P, so exciting you can buy pink now :)

ooh maple two boys or 2 girls exciting.......:nails::fx::ballerina::ballerina:

hoping- I know nothing about nubs or us pics:)

cvd- hope your b-day was a blast:)

p4p- sounds like great news have fun shopping for all things girlee:)

Thanks ladies! I might buy a little something from my favorite online store...Zulily. I'm not going to go crazy though because I know she will get lots of clothes from her nana and meme.

Maple - I remember your u/s pics and I am thinking you have two girls in there. I can't wait to find out! I'm sure the 7th can't come fast enough, lol. Distractions....lots of distractions. I'll be stalking!

Hoping - I am not a nubspert but I have compared nubs for months. The thing is with the forked nubs it really can go either way. The baby's spine is a bit curved so that may be throwing off the angle. I wish it were more definite. Sadly I too am 50/50 on this one BUT I will be :pray: that you hear pink!!!! And I agree with Jadis, they are perfect girl or boy :LotsofLove:

EEK SO SOON!! So hoping you hear 2 girls. I can't wait to see a picture :)

HopingforSaskia, I think your nub could go either way.

I had an appt today and scheduled my ultrasound for the 19th! My ob won't do it before 20 weeks. I was kinda hoping I could do it next week or the week after when I'll be 18 or 19 weeks, but I have to wait a bit longer. I keep telling myself patience is a virtue!

Thanks guys! :)

Jenna.. The next few weeks will fly. Fingers crossed for you! :) xx

They do but they go through the abdominal wall to get to the placenta so there is a chance either if it is misplaced or if contamination occurs that some or all of the sample could be my dna not the babies which would result in false gender result (as i am a girl). Its only ever a risk if you hear pink as if its a boy they know its your dna

Just as a side note I was offered that MaterniT21 on Tuesday which is a blood draw. They mentioned that they could also tell the gender of the baby through this test. I just thought that was a neat technological advancement. Apparently they can tell as early as 10 weeks.

jenna- it's good to wait. i think it is def. more accurate later so you won't be left wondering at all.
I just had my first mw appt. today and got to hear babes heartbeat awww such a wonderful sound everytime. we will switch to fetoscope but can't hear with that until 20 weeks so will use the doppler for next 2 appts. to have a listen to the lil one:)
also tested my iron because mine is always low. mine was 11.5(hemoglobin finger prick meter) anyone know what theirs was??

oh hb was 150 :) whatever that means lol but means babe is doing good and was moving around oh sweet lil bean:)
