For me I'd rather find out earlier. The less time I spend dreaming about a daughter the less painful it will be. I can then concentrate on choosing a name, bonding with my baby and getting on with practical stuff.

Good luck for those who will find out the gender of their babies , Im sending u positive thoughts :)
Im 17 weeks now
Still not sure about the baby's movement yet !
Its weird to me cuz with my DD I felt her movement with no doupt earlier !
I guess every baby is differeny
My dd is 12 weeks and its still hard to believe!! Xx
I hope I will get two good nub shots ;) my tech is awesome she has been my tech for all of my boys and has a lot of experience so hopefully she will take a guess and help me with good pictures:).. I see my OB tomorrow and will ask when my next U/S will be and how many and when for the rest.
I started reading When your exspecting twins, triplets or quads, I love it so far so much awesome information on twin pregnancy:)
Ill be 13w 2days I believe for my NT scan so hopefully the babies will pose for good nub shots haha :)
Im excited to hear their heartbeats tomorrow, ive had so much worry about the vanishing twin sydrome and keep thinking one of them vanished :/
Missxo - good luck on the nub shots, look forward to seeing them! I just finished reading that book you mentioned and loved it!
20 weeks on the nose today still a girl and above all HEALTHY! A perfect 11oz! We have a string of heart problems in our family so I was happy to at least see no physical heart problems and all 4 chambers of the heart so clear it looked like a photo. I wish I had gotten one of the close up heart ones just because it was that neat of a thing for my geeky mind to see.

We had an amazing technician. She figured out real quickly I knew my stuff and we talked on the technical level throughout the scan. She was VERY VERY through and this hospital 20 week scan is the last one you get so I am really glad she took the time she did. I mean she scanned each bone in the spine individually!
Awww so cute Nahri 😍
I can' t wait for my 18 weeks scan , just to get the reliefe idea that he is realy a boy !
So, I have been thinking, thinking and thinking some more about something one of my friends have said. This friend is due two weeks ahead of me. She had GDM last time and this time as well. Last time she was induced and the same will happen this time. Of course, I have been looking up in Google. Only on rare occasions does a mother not get induced or have a c/s when diagnosed with GDM. If bsl's are stable and bub is growing well but, not too well they will let labour come on naturally. Otherwise, it's an induction or c/s :( I don't want either. I have been blessed with all 4 kids not to require anything more then breaking my waters and gas. Argh! I know my mind needs to be open to everything and it is, I just don't want either of those scenarios :( I might add, my last two kids were both overdue. One by 3 days, the other by two days. Argh!!! Okay, vent over. I have an appointment with an obstetrician at the hospital tomorrow. Other then asking about those scenarios, can anyone think of anything else I might need to ask? It's been a while for me.
Nahri I hope you can now revel in the smug feeling of saying I told you so to your family ;) sounds like a great scan too! Do you think you will book a 3d scan or just wait till she is here?
Boysway, I worry about labour situations...think it's normal too. What is GDM?
I'm 10 weeks this week and only just getting to see my midwife for my 1st appointment this Thursday. Finding out your pregnant early means everything goes so slowly.
Ugee, GDM is gestational diabetes mellitus. I am currently controlled by diet but things can change.
Ok, I hope your consultant or ob is able to keep your mind stress free and manage it well for you. Does it mean you have to be careful with your sugar intake? Hope you aren't craving sweets as that would be so hard! I had preeclampsia with DS2 so think this pregnancy will be consultant led. Hope I don't get it again as it really worries me.
Anyone east coast USA? We have about 27 inches of snow today! Here's my back deck http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...c5332bcea7.jpg

Boysway. Talk to your doc about the reasons you MIGHT be induced/c/s. Usually you are going to hear its because of your BP or sugar levels. I had GDM with my DS diet controlled and I fully expect to have it this time. My sugar was monitored throughout and insulin given 2 times because the "stress" of labor can raise your sugar level. He was delivered with no intervention other than forceps when he was literally 1/2 inch from popping out and that was because of my bad hip not my GDM. Stick to your diabetic diet RELIGIOUSLY and you should not have as much to worry about and have the birth you want :)
Ugee- I have thought about it just because I have the coolest, priceless, non replaceable ever photo of DS from a later 3D/4D appointment. I dont know if we will be doing it or not just to keep the finances in check as we get closer to the due date, we have to pay a babysitter to watch DS during the labor, and make up for my husband having to take 3 days off.
You just cant get enough when you see something like this at a late gestation ultrasound!

Nahri that is such an amazing photo! I know what you mean about the finances as it's just so hard to part with money b4 the baby arrived as new babies cost so much anyway.
Nahri, that photo is incredible! Gorgeous baby!
Hello, everyone, do you mind if I join you? I'm due in early August. We have an amazing 2 year old DD, and we were hoping for another one and did a light sway (breastfeeding, followed some LE principles--went veggie, skipped breakfast, no snacking, lower nutrients, and we did just one attempt) and we were very fortunate to conceive on our first "practice" month trying. I took the Harmony test at 10 weeks, and was relieved and grateful to learn last week that our results were low risk and we're having a boy! I'm now in the process of adapting to a new dream. This will be our last child, so our daughter won't have a sister, but we hope she and her brother will have a wonderful relationship.
I'm 12 weeks along now and hoping the first trimester nausea and exhaustion will subside soon!
Congratulations :) and welcome.
Congrats!

Can I scream now??? After walking quite some distance after not being able to find a close parking spot. I get into my appointment to find the ob had been called away and would be at least 2 hours and I had 9 people ahead of me. The earliest the could get me in, 18th of Feb!!! I decided to go to my gp instead. Thankfully and maybe a blessing in disguise all nt results are with my gp.
I got my NT scan results today which were very low risk, thank goodness. I also received the scans. I have two leg shots in the pics. One is a little fuzzy but I am keen to know what your thoughts are. I'm trying not to get excited at what I think I see.
