Hi :) yes will definitely be finding out the gender at 18 weeks scan providing baby cooperates lol. I don't have the option of these blood tests where I live in Australia so have a long wait ahead. Currently 9+2 :)Quote:

Bad food aversions too and struggling to find anything that won't make me gag, oh and horrid tastes in my mouth after eating! :( My tastebuds have gone nuts! It's been a struggle coping with the sickness and still having to care for my 4 boys, especially my spirited 2 year old! Praying so much that this one is finally a girl because I can't go through this again :(
Oh mummy, my heart breaks for you knowing your are struggling with morning/all day sickness so much. I can relate. I hope you get the ultrasound and get to see your beautiful baby soon. Hope you feel better soon. Bananas are proving to help me a bit. I have one every day now.
Bananas is helping me to - and lots of cold, full fat dairy, cereal, oatmeal and white bread with butter and cheese.
One of you ladies asked how much we have gained.
I have gained five kilos in one month - going from 49 kilo up to 54. I am back to normal diet, but have a lot if food aversions. For instance I can't take the smell of coffee which I loved before my BFP. I crave cakes but cannot eat candy or drink soda. Crazy

I am loving bananas too :D
I've just started being able to stomach fruit and normal food again, I have no symptoms now, and am enjoying it until they return lol.
GirlieCat ; My midwife said that she thinks instinct of gender is usually right.
I'm not being negative, just feel very boyish - and it's okay now. I am truly excited for the prospect of a mini of my Hubbie.
Then if I'm wrong and it's a girl....well obviously that will be even better.
Also thanks so much for doing that awesome list !
It's so strange that we're mostly all swaying girls hahha
So sorry honey. Mine didn't tell me measurement in cm or mm, just told me it was measuring 7w6d. Did she tell you what the heart rate was? When is your next appointment? These first few months really are nerve racking to not be able to do much but wait and see if baby is healthy enough to stick long term. Praying everything is okay with your baby.Quote:
