I went back and looked at Brandles 8 week scan (she has had similar symptoms to me and baby2016) and our babies look like they are even in the same place wtf lol.. Top of the amniotic sac near what appears to be top of the uterus.. Ramzi would probably say we are having the same gender... :nails::nails:
Ok so best case you may get it the 19th?
I haven't decided when to do the scan yet. The place says from 15wks but I'm not sure if I should wait a few more days for better accuracy.
My Dr rang me tonight with my NT results and said all normal. I said they already told me that when I rang and apparently they shouldn't have as the blood result part wasn't in at that point! Lucky they were still normal! I don't think she was impressed with reception doing that.
Yes purple! If it goes perfect I will know the 19th! We are so close to finding out purple!!
Jen I swayed for a boy...my last baby and I've wanted a son since I first found out I was going to be a mother... So stakes are high for me...
Aww lovely to see bubs burk. Im so envious. I had my booking yesterday (10w) and my scan should be arranged for 13w. i wont see the midwife very much at all. I think she said 16w, 24w and 32! That's it. Not helping my anxiety.
Jen I could have written what you wrote. I really have never felt this bad. I'm dehydrated alot too as struggling to drink much and suffering the enevitable effects at the other end. Its really bothering my dh seeing me like this and hes pretty much said this wil be the last. So I'm hoping it's my boy even more. He wants the snip now. I think we both counted on me sailing through as i did with the others. I didnt even have symptoms with them at all! I used to forget I was pregnant. Now it's all I can think about!
Purple I'm same as you. There's a place that does 15w but all others are 16w so I'm not sure if they have more opposites. They state it's reliable as the 16w but then they would.
Good luck to all getting bloods done soon, got everything crossed. I'm jelous but can't justify the cost this time round. Burk I have no idea where mine is positioned It will be too late for ramzi at my scan. But my last daughters scan was sent to gender experts and they said boy so I'm a bit wary of ramzi. It will be very interesting to see what we all have given some of us are feeling ok and some are the other end of the scale. Atomic said any differences between sexes wouldn't be apparent till week 10. I'm exactly 10w so hoping I get some signs. It's been hard not to obsess that all the sickness, nausea and complete exhaustion is a polar opposite of all my pregnancies as I don't want to build false hope.
Hope everyone is doing as ok as can be. I can't wait to see the back of tri1 xxxx
Baby2016 are you in the UK or Australia? My 1st appointment I will be about 14wks based on last scan and won't see a midwife until after 20wks. I think it gets more frequently after 32wks... not much happens early on so I'm not too worried.
The place I'm looking at for the scan has 3 locations in different states and the other 2 locations they say they will do gender from 14wk but my city is 15wks. Last time with DS2 the earliest everywhere was 16wks but I reckon I could have gone earlier with him as he was very clearly a boy! I think it also helps if you aren't too padded around the middle as they can get a clearer view.
I'm in the uk. I know they've reduced the times seen recently for 2nd time or more mums. I think I'm worried as a family member suffered a still birth at 39+5 so I'm on edge. I'm lucky I can always get checked as got friends in the field but don't want to become a pain. I'm guessing they are the 13w and 20w scans as a kind of check.
Haha i better wait then. My middle is erm rather padded sadly. I keep umming and ahhing about the blood test but I think since I'm 10+2 now and it could be done from 9w I should just wait. By time they send kit out etc I'm going to be 12w+. I'm so impatient. I don't know if it's worth me doing the bloods as last time I was told girl I didn't beleive it and had the gender scan anyway! We had two incomes back then though. I wonder if the technology has improved slightly on the scanners? Hence them saying 14/15 weeks xxx
Morning ladies! I have my mw booking in appt today, feeling nervous! Had my first gender dream last night too, I was at my scan and had said I didn't want to officially know but asked them to show me shots of the goods and I couldn't see any boy parts. The dream was certainly suggestive of pink... I'm only looking at boy named at the moment and I think I feel fairly at ease with having another boy surprisingly (for the time being!). My friend is threatening to book me in for a private gender scan when I hit 16 weeks though lmao!!
I'm still feeling pretty rough, the weight gain is just the worst though! I'm nearly 1stone heavier than my lowest weight only a few months ago from starting the le diet. I just feel so fat already. I don't think I've got to the point of being officially overweight just yet at 9st 11lb and 5'6" though. It's all self inflicted due to the nausea I'm eating ALL day long!x
Oh I miss read it and didn't realise you didn't get more appointments after 32wks! Thats crazy as that normally when they notice any issues. With my first they picked up the pre eclampsia after 32wks because my BP went up. Also babies are often still breach at that point. Are you sure the don't start going fortnightly after 32wks?
The ultrasound technology may have improved as it was over 5 years since I had DS2s gender scan! I do have some padding so no perfect flat belly here but I guess it depends how much.
I'm so happy it's the weekend here (well Friday night).
