September 2013 babies!!

The gender scanning place has emailed and said they're more than happy to discreetly do the gender bits, but put it on the DVD for us, and then write it down for us to look later.

I'm a bit torn about where we should read it though. I thought it would be nice if we did it in the restaurant we met and where I went into labour with DS2, but if its boy I am most likely to cry, and don't want to do that in a restaurant full of people!

We might have to go for a wander round the city walls before going to the restaurant and do it there. Hopefully it won't be raining!

So I went to the endodontist yesterday and she wouldnt take any X-rays cause I'm not over 12 weeks but from the X-ray I had taken two weeks ago it looks like I have to lose my front tooth :( I'm having to do all these crazy things that I don't want to do during pregnancy! I am just finishing a script for clyndamicin which I hate taking meds while preg so it makes me nervous... I guess I'm gonna need freezing to get my tooth pulled out I'm going to need X-rays and I'm gonna have to get a tooth implant skrewed into my jaw :(.... Has any one had x rays during pregnancy? It scares me :(

I used to work in Radiology, maybe you can ask to wear a lead gown when they take the xrays. That way your bump will be protected from the scatter and it will be safe. Its very low dose, dental xrays (you get far more radiation on a short 3hr plane flight-and how many pregnant women fly??)
I would believe all the procedures you need are safe, but I just hope they dont hurt too much for you!! :worry:
Certainly not what you need whilst pregnant!! Poor thing, I'll be thinking of you! x

reading about everyone's 12 week scans are getting me very excited (and anxious) about mine next friday!! It cant come soon enough!! Basically all my family and friends know, Im showing far too much to have kept it a secret much past 7weeks! So I just have a little voice in the back of my head nagging me and a worried feeling in my stomach. Just want to make sure its all ok as soooooooo many people know already. Had a scan at my OB on monday, so baby is growing spot on, just want to be cleared for downs etc etc....Nub pic is not a priority for me at the moment, I just want to know its healthy. No doubt I will be scrutinising all the images with a fine tooth comb afterwards for the "perfect nub (and maybe skull) shot! lol im a lost cause!!

Fish, my gender scan is on the 6th April and its 43 days away. I'll be 18 + 1 weeks then.

One week from today I get to see my baby or the first time! I'll be 9 weeks 3 days! I'm excited! I think this will seem more real once I see my little gummy bear.

4 more sleeps till I see my baby/babies.... (just one please!) I've never been so nervous for a 12 week scan!

I've got 8 days and its dragging!
