oh mummypink the nerves must be terrible now, it is probably going to be obvious on the scan when they are looking at the gender so im sure you will probably know before they tell you if its a girl, maybe you could ask them to write it down so you can react in the privacy of your home, or car if you cant wait?
I liked it a lot! Just wish I could have spent a bit more time there. We literally got there like 1 - 2pm and then left by 7pm. Me and my husband's friend was going to LIPA so we went to meet up with him for lunch and for me to have a walk around (American in Liverpool... 'nough said!) In fact, when we went I was pregnant with my son and didn't know it yet. We went on a Saturday and I woke up on Monday feeling like I was going to puke and took a pregnancy test. :PQuote:

Little did I know that it was my last decent meal before I found out I was pregnant and hit with morning sickness. :P
Thanks Shellbelle, your post brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful having you all to understand how horrid GD is. Oh and I haven't had a 12 week scan to obsess over and I'm still in a state! I would probably be worse though if I'd had all girl guesses at a 12 week scan as I'd be terrified the bubble was going to be burst.
Cinss - I think you're right and it probably will be obvious on the scan, my dh saw the boy bits before the tech on both my previous scans and thinks I'm being weird anyway so writing it down isn't really an option unfortunately.
Think I just need to go to bed and try and get a good nights sleep, I'm absolutely shattered today which I'm sure isn't helping my emotions.
Suregena - not sure about being gender related but I am snappy as anything too, I have absolutely no patience with the boys and feel like such a bad mummy. Ds1 even said to me the other day that I was always grumpy, it seems like every little naughty thing they do is magnified so I'm just constantly telling them off and then feeling horrible about it.
I think once I have tomorrow out of the way if it is a girl my mood should be improved 1000% and if it is a boy at least I know what the future holds and I will plan some lovely activities to do with my two boys to spoil them before the baby arrives. xxx
Suregena, it sounds like you are under so much stress that being snippy would be natural. I'm so sorry things are so tough for you and your family right now.
I am trying to ignore it all because I seriously cannot do anything about it except what we are doing (going through an appeals process thing to get them to fix the amounts they have so we can get our tax credits back) but I suppose it's affecting me even when I am not actively thinking about it. :/
So sorry suregena your having such troubles thank god for your mum helping you out.
Mummypink good luck again will be stalking for your pink update :p

Hey Ladies....been keeping up with the posts but have not posted in a while....had a quick ? for you all. At what point did each of you start feeling your little ones? With my first dd, it was not until around 20 weeks, then around 19 with my second dd, then I know I started feeling my third dd at 16 weeks and some odd days....much earlier. I am now 16 weeks and 4/almost 5 days and have really only felt one definite little flutter that I'm sure was the baby, and that was actually about 5 days ago. I didn't think much about it before this week, bc I knew that was the earliest I've felt my babies, but for the past few days I've spent many occasions lying still trying to feel something, and have felt nothing. I know I'm likely worried for nothing, but I just can't wait to feel the baby so I won't worry. It seems like with my fourth, I would be less concerned about things, but it seems to be the opposite. Yikes!
3girlsinarow: I felt flutters with my first son a couple of days before 16 weeks. With my second I was closer to 14 weeks. This time I definitely felt flutters 3 times at 12 weeks. The flutters are always inconsistent until 20 weeks or so.....then the movements begin happening daily. I wouldn't start to worry until after 21-22 weeks.
